I believe the deal fell through because they lost their TV deal. So in that respect it just be WCW without a TV deal, so even if Bischoff bought it they’d still have one hell of a problem since attendance and PPV buys were way down.

But say for arguments sake Bischoff managed to secure a decent timeslot and the plan was as I recall, to re-launch the company with all the main eventers that were taken off air prior (Nash, Goldberg, etc) along with some new talent (Styles and Air Paris?).

I guess it would be up to whether Bischoff would be willing to push new talent, instead of having the same guys on top or not. I would imagine Hogan would’ve found his way back with Bischoff at the helm again, and we all know of the political game he was the master of. So it just be like the late 90’s over again.

So in my opinion, WCW would’ve died regardless. Too many huge egos to combat with in order to get anywhere.
