That is true. But there's a lot of things that are different about it. They were dealing with 3 quasi invaders, and though it was amazing for a year, it got stale quickly and overdone.
As for the Invasion Angle in WWE 2001, I hate it so much and a I criticize it to no end. But there was a lot more shit to handle and many plans and contracts and such fell through, the whole thing was very complicated and a massive change. Not to mention you have a lockeroom full of loyal WWE guys who suddenly see the compettition come in and get pushed over them. There was a huge amount of difficult situations.
Not making excuses, just pointing out the differences between WCW bookin the 3 man nWo invasion and the WWF purchasing and integrating an entire promotion.
