March 26, 2005: Four Years Ago...



I can't believe I forgot about this.

Maybe there was a thread on this and I just didn't see it, or I'm legally blind, or both.

Man. Well, every additional year dulls the pain of how badly they botched The Invasion.

Everything went downhill from there...

1. Invasion botched.

2. Wrestling at a low point.

3. Not that much spontaneity and surprise.

4. Several old wrestlers re-introduced then disappeared....

God, 4 years. Bradshaw was Hardcore Champion at that point I think (in APA).

It's been said before, but wrestling really DOES make time fly.

If I'm honest, in the past 4 years there's only been one thing that made me go WOW.

And that is when this happened after Vengeance 2001.

Is that Sting and Flair hugging or is Flair about to execute a belly to belly suplex? Or did Sting choke on a pretzel and Flair is giving him the heimlick?

it was just about over when Shane "bought" WCW. Then it was almost entirely saved when ECW came in out of nowhere. Then it was stabbed, shot, hung, dead and buried when WCW/ECW merged and Steph "bought" ECW.

BTW: Booker looks bad ass there. Fucking assholes

Towards the end of WCW, their belts were getting traded around more than Ruien's phone number at an asshole convention. They didn't have much of an image by the time WCW got bought out.

Technically.....they do own those companies. Vince can't actually outright own WCW/ECW because he'd get in trouble with monopoly laws.

Then again, since when does Vince care?

I'm sad. YOU MADE ME THINK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED 4 YEARS AGO!

WCW was bought about a year after I started watching WWE, so I can't really say I'm crying buckets over it all. Though I think if it was still going today I'd probably watch it asswell as WWE. I can see how it must be upsetting, and as lame as this sounds right now, I don't know what I'd do if the WWE went.
