Yup, precisely why they did that "takeover" hour in Tacoma, basically a test drive for WCW. But it was a disaster that the crowd shat all over and showed just how poorly thought out it was. Why would they do the WCW hour in Tacoma when they could've waited a week when they were in fukking ATLANTA?????
The "signed with Turner and not WCW" thing actually is a misnomer - everybody's deals were with Turner because WCW was just a division of Turner. They never operated like a traditional wrestling company for this precise reason. When WWF bought WCW, they didn't actually buy the company - they bought the tape library, licenses, and whatever contracts they could negotiate to buy out from the boys. But WCW as a company actually still existed under Turner and that's how Hogan, etc. were still getting paid. Like Booker T said, he could've sat out the remainder of his WCW contract and still gotten those Turner checks but instead he agreed to a 50% buyout and a WWF deal.
And what’s amazing is people still want to listen to these fukking dumbasses on weekly podcasts.
Not me.
LolIt made no sense and then he finally had that 10 minute bs match with bret on nitro and brets selling the whole time laying on the mat as hogan dominates again

yeah. I already said at the end of the day the reason why WCW failed to maintain success against WWF, regardless of any network, any executives, any anything was
