If WWE now was put up against WCW's Russo Era, who would win the ratings war?

I'm just saying, the position of WCW wrestlers in later WWE has nothing to do with the drawing power of those individuals--all three of the guys mentioned were massive and their slow spiral into shit in WWE was clearly the result of booking, not a lack of following on any of their part's. The follow up on their potential was so bad that it might as well have been bad on purpose, and in at least a few of the cases, may very well have been intentional.

Except for Nash, of course. That was sort of everybody's fault.

Not that any of this is overly relevant because both Nash and Goldberg were WWE main eventers at one point or another during their time with the company. Saying they were midcarders is disengenuous, nevermind acting like they wouldn't be legitimate stars because of it.
