Maybe it's Earth-2. Munch and Munch-Prime?

Does this mean the 7 year rule is a result of Munch-Prime punching the walls of reality too hard?

the more I think about it, the more I decide that WCW is perfectly summed up by the Chris Jericho Action Figure story.

Mind explaining for the rest of us?

Chris Jericho's action figures were set so that when they were bought, the receipt would say either "Sting" or "Hogan". They subsequently got the revenue money for the sales.

"WCW rigged the polls on their website so that if people voted for Kidman/Rey for example as MOTN the vote would actually go to Hogan/Sid. Hogan used this as evidence that Billy Kidman "couldn't headline a wrestling show at a flea market"."


So even the TNA Top 10 poll is a rehash?
This. loving. Company :psypop:

You have to believe that a talent could kill a busload of nuns while high on PCP and nude and be suspended with pay in WCW, but if someone did a bump into the pool outside of the main event they'd be fired on the spot.

Because nothing says discipline like a free vacation.

Master P hasn't shown up in TNA yet so something of WCW remains sacred.

He's still a millionaire from the money he made selling off the Vitamin Water brand, IIRC. He never has to work another day in his life.

Run by Vince, tweeners, personal favor to Taker to let him work less matches (and eventually run by Vince), during Vince's pre-Attitude panic period, run by Shane.

Alright then, heel WWF Stables that means a drat that can't be written off for those reasons....who's left then? Camp Cornette? Million Dollar Corporation?

Okay fine, I was reaching a bit there. I'll give you the Harts, but even then they were immune to heat outside of America. Goddamn Bizarro World :psyduck:

Still say the Ministry shouldn't count, since the only reason they were so dominant was Taker's MASSIVE pull backstage. On the bright side, at least it lead to APA, Edge, and Taker's best theme EVER.

Yeah, I'm fine with logos and even think the WWE and TNA miss out on a golden opportunity by not wrapping ad logos around the barricades like it was NHL arena boards. It's just missed money.

Wasn't TNA putting them on the apron for a while a year or two back?

Was Suburban Commando the one where Undertaker had a role as the bad guy who never talked until the end, and then he had the voice of a 6 year old girl?

Yes. Also the one where Christopher Lloyd was fro-zen today.

There's actually a mention of that in his first book that, when he looked up what his first theme was actually called, it was "Basketball Highlights #12".

Of course, WCW weren't alone in that. I've definitely heard Crash Holly's theme on commercials before, and even spotted the Hardy Boyz theme on Top Gear.*
