Monday Night Wars

Well I think that wcw only got a bad name because of the way wwe portrayed them since purchasing the company, I mean everyone remembers Oklahoma right, but there is no mention of when wwe made fun of ted turner .

Well Ed Ferrera and Vince Russo decided to make fun of JR, So Ed Ferrera created a character named Oklahoma, and He was just like JR but in a mocking way, and what they did is have a Pinata on a pole match with mexican wrestlers to once again mock wwe at there shitty story lines.

The WWE has made WCW out to look like 2 things in its history (a company that was dominated only by Flair, Sting, Lex Luger, Hall, Nash, Hogan and Savage, and a company that was a carbon copy of the WWF). Neither of wish is completely true, but now it looks like, as much as i loved ECW, we are left with the WWF and ECW both being treated fairly in the WWE, but WCW legacy continues to get burried to this day.

this discussion is really interesting therefore i'll move it in the international discussion areas as Monday night wars.

I for one, Turn to TNA now, because when I watch it , I get the same feeling as when I watched WCW.

well, my opinion is based excly on the oposite feeling that you have. It is not WCW (unfortunatelly). The main reason is the small crowd, i want 20k ppl for each show! Maybe they should change this ... otherwise i still get that underground feeling. WCW used to gave me shivers (and it still does) when the public started to chant Goldberg!!!

Well let me make a point, If you compare wcw 4 years into their promtions life and tna 4 years into theirs, you would see that TNA is by far ahead of them in terms of crowd , ratings, etc, and look how far wcw got, just think how far tna will go.
