I loved it but Mach is admittedly my all time favorite so there is an obvious bias. But I dug the edge they gave his character, and Gorgeous George was perfect to go along with it.

He probably got too much of a push in the summer of 99, I remember many a Nitro those months, when the show was 3 hours, that it seemed like he was constantly in a segment.

But when you look at what else they had to offer at the top of the card, he was as good an option as anyone else.

All of that said, the feud with Rodman was terrible

It's one of the unintentionally funniest feuds. Bischoff was on commentary whenever they had to cut promos on each other.
"PLEASE TAKE THE MIC AWAY" shyt was comedy.

They had this motherfukker go through the entire entrance looking like a damn fool only to cut a worked shoot in the ring. fukkin' Vince Russo! "They've dressed me up like uncle fester to play trick or treat all year long!"

The Maestro

The Maestro gets forgotten as peak late WCW fukkery, and it's a damn shame.

They really had random ass music playing for no reason during segments just to lead to this dumbass coming down from the ceiling like Sting bushed the Crow suggestion, and really got into 80s/90s Vegas acts instead.

What's funny is that was really Dustin's idea before the exec's at Turner saw the vignettes and got scared because they caught child predator vibes from the character. Dustin Runells more often then not is vanilla as fukk with out the over the top gimmicks, So I actually saw potential In him helping to liven things up a bit as seven.

Made a thread about a specific women’s match, but the general women’s division in WCW was horrific. They had a clear Chyna ripoff in Asya, Midknight who started teaming with Booker T and feuding with Stevie Ray, and basically every single Nitro Girl given hasty Power Plant training and thrown out in the ring. The best in ring women in WCW between 99-01 were Madusa (who was wrestling in the CW division for a bit), Daffney, and Mona (who dipped to the WWF after just a few months. They put all these women in the ring with no development and didn’t even bother to add a women’s title

Harlem Heat 2000 won the rights to the name "T" in a match with Big T against Booker at superbrawl 2000

Mach was fully embracing that HOH lifestyle by then

The lights would go out and there would be a gong sound whenever Midnight came out.

They gave her a micro-Undertaker entrance. shyt was so forced and lame.

^^^^As juventud put it "What a great gimmick for the single worst wrestler in the company." Which is a very apt criticism for a wrestler with no swag trying to pull off a prince gimmick.
