AOL kinda pulled the rug from under their feet when they bought TimeWarner, as that led to WCW losing TV braodcasting. Things started looking up when Fuscient Media/w Eric Bischoff had offered to buy out WCW and keep the promotion running, but a major player behind Fuscient had decided to pull out of the deal, thus putting the final nail in WCW's coffin. WWE bought the brand for $2.0 million, or something.

Either way, it was a really shitty way to go. I used to love WCW.
