At the end of the clip, it kind of says it all....all those hard workers put out of jobs due to WCW's creative bullshit at the company's end...people who found themselves with no paycheck to feed their families 2 days after this aired...kind of puts a human face on all of WCW's missteps.
@RonicW This was days after Kellner took throne as CEO of Turner Broadcasting effectively canceling WCW as Fussient is out of the deal to keep WCW. Few days later, WCW was sold to Vince and the WWFE Inc.
damn ric flair put his heart and soul into this promo, i thought his head was gonna bust. he said scott steiner is in a bad mood and he's gonna hurt ya, his gonna hurt ya
i thought this was suppose to be thunder, this looks like nitro. damn i loved wcw back then cause i just couldnt accept how bad they truly had gotten back then. this is sad as hell when you compare it to all of the glory years of wcw, even before nitro
I remember watching nitro in the 90's and the crowd was red hot, they would pop for everything and anything lol, yet fast forward to when this was 2001 i think and the crowd was dead, i mean fair enough a main event of dustin vs poppa pump and jj aint gonna get u hot, but such a shame to see what wcw had become. I still miss wcw, people talk about TNA but they aint on the same level as wcw even here.
@ERIKISGOD23, Before seeing your comment, I was about to ask how he's still employed?. Also, have you noticed that with TNA's new sky blue/grey color scheme that their studio looks like the old Thunder set?
Thunder got bad, *really* bad in the late days of WCW. I'm sorry, but Dustin Rhodes just looks weird fightning Steiner, but when you factor in it's a handicap match and they have to cheat to win, it makes things look really stupid. Not to mention, who wants to see this crap as the main event?
omg am i glad this angle wasnt given the chance to continue look how tiny the crowd is and how tacky and washed up it all looks compared to how it was before sad to see how these guys are the main event cos all the stars had high tailed it i bet the lockeroom was like a ghost town by this point :( hard to have gotten behind this when u know its not gonna be taken any further bet the announcers and every1 else jus wanted to get it over with as well
