>do you see any similarities with WWE today and WCW relying on older talent from other companies?
The difference is, WCW relied on older talent but they actually did awesome stuff with their older talent and did intriguing things with them.
WWE today is just relying off of name value alone. WWE today AREN'T even doing intriguing things with their older talent, they're just relying off of their name, while not doing them justice.
>if we put Cody Rhodes out there, people will buy it, because he's Cody. If we put CM Punk out there, people will buy it, because he's Punk. Doesn't matter who's fighting.
see? WWE today is relying off of name value alone. WCW used the name value and put something intriguing behind their older talent.
Hogan, Nash, Hall, Scott Steiner, Goldberg, Sting, Luger, Booker T, Stevie Ray, DDP, Savage, Hennig, Norton, Bagwell, Flair, Bret etc. all got Punk, Cody, Orton, AJ Styles, Rollins, Jey, LA Knight, Sami Zayn, Dominik, Dragon Lee, Logan Paul etc washed.
