Who acts like that? Everyone knows that the WWE struggled after Hulkamania died down and all the 80s stars went to WCW. The biggest lie that gets told now is that they were on the verge of bankruptcy before the Tyson/Austin angle. They actually started to make money again towards the latter part of 97, and their ratings were starting to climb back up.Man I remember ALL of that.
That’s why I be looking at cats funny that pretend the E didn’t have its own growing pains or are hypercritical of other companies (no not talking about one specifically, let me be clear I said OTHER COMPANIES as in ALL).
Or be expecting everyone to (out the gate) be at the level in certain areas as the WWE, which took them decades to get to.
So much has changed but it’s cool then dropping a video that takes you back

Some of that blame needs to go on the people of said companies. What I loved about TNA is that they would take tiny little shots at WWE here & there, but theey understood there lane and for the most part stayed there. Things didn't go south for them until Dixie allowed HOEgan & Bischoff talk her into starting the ill fated Monday Night War II. Cody talked a lot of shyt and was determined to make AEW the new big dog in the yard, and that pigeonholed them into being looked at as a low rent WWE/WCW/TNA knockoff. It also doesn't help that JeriKKKo won't shut his fukking mouth and speaks on everything not concerning him.It’s remarkable how big they have grown and to see where they are at today. But some do expect other companies to be where they are in year 68 by either their first 5 years if not in their first year.
They definitely have been fortunate to be around so long to make some GREAT strides
That's not when tna went downhill they went downhill when they fukked up and cc Vince Russo on that email lol.Some of that blame needs to go on the people of said companies.

What you're forgetting is that all those companies were established, AEW came out the gate talking shyt which may have made the neckbeards happy but it made them look small time to everyone else. Also WWE & WCW were legit competition for each other, so it was expected that there would be haymakers thrown at each other.But see, I have no issues with the little shots…. and I don’t know what the rage is about…. coming from the company that did Billionaire Ted, Nacho Man and etc.
Like no company even really had a DX invading WCW moment.
And King used to be on commentary BURYING THE fukk out of ECW
WWE and WCW have done WAY worse.
And everyone has taking shots, just a few years back Tama Tonga and various NJPW cats was shytting on Roman and WWE.
Sometimes the sensitivity and outrage just feels fake, cuz it’s picked and chosen depending on the wrestler and company
1993 until maybe mid to late 96 WWF was almost as unintentionally hilarious as 1999-2001 WCW
almost.
