Let me guess, they blame it on Hogan not wanting to put over Bret Hart or some shit?

Each episode has a different take:

episode one has Hogan be to blame

Episode two was Nash and the fingerpoke of doom

Episode three seems to be about Russo

Episode four will be Jamie Kellnrr

Oh, so it's just the usual Meltzer narrative that we've heard for 25 years?

Picrel is what killed WCW. It really is that simple, I swear it.

>by 2000 their ppv business was in the toilet
Yea, because everybody was watching Austin and Rock on the other channel. How is this supposed to contradict what I said?
Nigga just posted further confirmation that WCW dying aligned perfectly with the Austin/Rock meteoric rise. You a dumbass nigga.

Rock and Austin feuded for years while WCW was winning, cumstain. WCW's business plummeted because of the absolute shit booking. WCW fans did not switch to WWE when the company was sold, they stopped watching altogether

The Austin/Rock fued started in '99.
WCW was "in the toilet" by 2000.
Dumbass zoomer, I was actually alive and watching back then so I know for a fact that Austin/Rock made WCW seem uncool. Their hardcore fans (the only ones left by 2000) even had to cope with muh "pure" wrestling, while the cool kids were laughing at them and watching WWF.

Look, I'm sorry that you have to live the Monday Meme War vicariously through Vice and Meltzer, but it really is as simple as Austin and Rock propelling pro wrestling into the mainstream zeitgeist at the time. Nobody was giving a shit about Booker T and Scott Steiner. Also, Goldturd was zero charisma ripoff of Austin and muh streak got old real fucking fast.

I'm telling you there was nothing WCW could do. It was nothing that they did. There was no amount of "genius booking" or pushing Bret Hart that was going to stop that. No amount of drop toe holds and hurricanranas was going to change that course of history.

Again, what could they have done? An 85% decline doesn't just happen because Bret Hart didn't win the title, or some other Meltzer fanfic theory. The audience were all flocking to Austin and Rock.

They blame anything but TBS and the Rock takes credit for killing WCW 5-11 years after it died.
