When I read your line about marketing, first think that popped in my head were those Four Horsemen vitamins, lol Crockett couldn't market for shit which would have been Magnum's downfall eventually. He would have to have gone north where Vince would have booked him as a midcard biker character. He later would have gone on to face Koko B. Ware at a random Wrestlemania. I love Magnum and thought he was awesome during his run, but I don't think it would have ended as well as some have stated....though it could be argued it would have ended better than it did given the current path life took for him.

I think alot of it had to do with WCW being ran more or less by the boys and they had no concept of business and marketing. In the end I also believe it's what led to WCW's downfall and the bleeding of money the company had going on. Bischoff initially had his eye on the prize, and made the company tons. However, once he became "one of the boys" he lost focus and the snowball continued to grow from there....
