I get a kick watching everyone shyt talk WCW and all the bs politics that went on there like they don’t experience the exact same thing now.

and while I’m not ridin for him like da king, the nerve of them to go in on russo when it’s clear he played a huge part in what they produced creatively. meanwhile the WWE devolved into arguably the worst wrestling show of all time.

History basically shows that he got lucky. He did have some good ideas but look at his WCW & TNA runs and ask yourself if he was a genius.

I don’t think hes a genius... once in awhile i read and hear what he has to say and half the time i think he sounds clueless.

but the other half? sometimes I agree :ehh:

fact remains he wrote the show during the attitude era, that has to count for something.

his worst stuff isn’t any worse than WWE’s worst stuff post russo.

Them burying Goldberg that whole episode just to bring him back like a year or so later :russ:

The moment Heyman was like "they blew it:francis:" with Goldberg finally getting a lost made me :snoop:. Goldberg was getting stale and Nash knew it. They friggin piped in the Goldberg chants because everybody was tired of the the squash matches along with Jericho not going over during that feud. What amazed me about that documentary was the fact that every single bit of "wrongdoing" WCW was doing, the WWE continues to do without seeing the end results to the stupid decisions.

The reintroduction of the bad guy and diesel :dead: just stupid as hell

Even as a kid I knew these were some bums

Jim Ross :SMH: legitimately hated him around this time

Who the hell booked that one?
