Wrestling Roundtable 11/1/09 Part 1 What Should WCW Have Done After Starrcade 1997?

Sorry for the delay! As part of our 'fan appreciation' themed showed, we invite the first fan of the show to the panel itself as we discuss the fan-chosen topic won by our first t-shirt contest winner, Steven Maleksy of Asheville, NC. The panel, including Shane Hagadorn from Ring Of Honor, fantasy books World Championship Wrestling from the Monday Nitro after Starrcade 1997 to Starrcade 1998. Sting has just won the WCW World Heavyweight title from the leader of the New World Order, Hollywood Hulk Hogan, under 'suspicious' circumstances in the main event which Bret The Hitman Hart got involved in. Where does the company go from here? Hosted by Eric Santamaria

Excellent scenarios. It's really a bummer that the nWo never was truly defeated because of either injuries in the group and whatnot. BTW have Raven and Sting fought each other?

@GoldStandard00924 Thanks! Not that I'm aware of.

Yeah, that's why you've got thousands of followers too, right? I'll point out more of the obvious : You're a dipshit, and can't spell "they're.' Jerk off. It's also "more THAN," ugh!

oh my god thank u thank u i have been saying it for years KEEP THE DAM BELT ON STING AND BUILD HIM AND GOLDBERG FOR THE NEXT STARRADE. THEY WOULD STILL BE IN FUCKING BUSINESS DAAAAM LOL.

[Albinoafroman316]

I want to go to this show and scream Chris Benoit over and over until they find a security guard big enough to remove me

[keh678]

@XCQTE Oh no before that. What should TNA have done once Christian came over?

[Live4Ever329]

Believe it or not goldberg only main evented 2 ppvs with the belt and he lost the second one! After the brilliant build up and putting the belt on him they totally ignored him and undermined his reign as champ. The power of hogan i guess.

This is a great roundtable show, really enjoy the fantasy booking :)

@DaManEX1983 Not really....how bout a supportive company behind the subsidiary.

[XCQTE]

We need another one of these..."what should TNA have done once Kurt Angle had signed"

[okrabay]

NWO should have only let wwf wrestlers in and kept it to about 5 -6 people at the most.

[PeteMcD923]

it was just so annoying how they kept on puttin the belt back on hogan and the whole nwo thing which started off as an amazing angle became stale cos they just kept screwing everyone over. in the end the heels are meant to lose but they just kept winning, where was the payoff? they gave sting the messy starrcade win after that classic buildup to the match. then goldberg won it but they messed that up with the whole poke of doom nonsense! ultimately ego's destroyed wcw!

[DaManEX1983]

Simple...stop letting Hogan call the shots and WCW still might be going today

[Reckin007]

These scenarios really are genius...makes me remember when I watched it back in the day. All of these make a lot more sense than what actually happened.
