It reads almost like a college paper so this is going to take awhile to get through. There are stats, history lessons, my thoughts on things, and a lot of other stuff. It’s easily the longest piece I’ve ever written on wrestling so don’t expect it to be quick like a lot of other things I write. One major note: about 99% of this isn’t researched and most of it is coming off the top of my head, so if I mess up a few dates or names, don’t be surprised.Īnother warning: this is LONG. Here it is now though, so let’s see if we can figure it out. When I started reviewing the late WCW shows I thought about doing this and was going to call it “Jumping the Shark Backwards”, but I never got around to it. I’ve tried to figure these answers out for years and I thought maybe by writing it out I could come to some sort of conclusion.
This is very important to start things off with: I don’t have a specific answer to those questions as I write this. As you’ve probably guessed from the title, the purpose of this piece is to try to figure out who killed WCW, when it happened, what caused it. However, there are a few things we’re not quite clear on and to be fair, I don’t think there’s a clear answer out there. Now, there have been books written about how WCW died and went out of business and all that. WCW had WWF beaten and then screwed up, and today Vince McMahon and WWE rule the wrestling world totally and completely. However, what people forget is that WCW had some flat out AWESOME stuff that today’s WWE wishes they could do. Now yes, WCW had some absolutely dreadful stuff over the years, most of which I’ve at least touched on. The company officially closed over ten years ago and yet there are still people that talk about how great it was. Those of you that have read my stuff for years now (thanks for that) know that I like to talk about WCW.
