>>4881947WcW was starting to use new talent, whereas wwf/e was relying on talent that would be leaving in only a few years or already had trouble drawing by themself. Vince let a lot of good talent slip through his fingers that went to companies with no real national presence. Competition breeds innovation, and without that competition wwe was left as the sole wrestling promotion, eventually driving it to where it is today. There's a reason you can bring up wcw and most people of a certain age with a passing knowledge of wrestling will remember it, but try the same with roh or tna and they won't understand at all. And before you say
>muh record profitsIt doesn't matter when it has all time low viewership. Wwe and vince killed the business when they bought the only competition, their only legit rival. It may be seeing a resurgence mow, but it will never reach those huge levels of popularity again.
Fuck wwe and fuck Vince.
