What if wcw bought wwe in 2001




















In late WWF would continue to suffer loses in its ratings, ticket buys, merchandising, and stocks. The company made two separate mistakes. This would lead to reportedly , viewers to change channels in order to see Foley's victory, with most viewers only tuning back in to Nitro when there were five minutes left in the broadcast.

The match saw Nash shoving Hogan in the corner, then Hogan would poke Nash in the chest with his finger, prompting Nash to theatrically throw himself onto the mat and allow Hogan to pin him; the victory marked the reunion of both nWo factions.

This would lead to fans feeling burned out by WCW and many of them would turn their back on the company. POD January 3, This would lead to the entire angle being cut from the episode. Time was now needed to have room for the new main event, Among the cuts for the match, was a Nitro Girl segment and the Bam Bam Bigelow vs Wrath match.

Goldberg vs Nash was going well, and the crowd was firmly invested. Goldberg seemed like he was going to win back his title after he lifted Nash for his Jackhammer finishing move, but before he could deliver it, Hulk Hogan would hit him in the back with a chair, and then the entire nWo Hollywood would attack Goldberg getting Nash disqualified, but allowing him to keep his title.

Goldberg would fight back, but the numbers were too great, and he was soon outmatched. Rontundo would lay out both Bo, and Bagwell as the show closed out. Time heals all wounds, but money can definitely help it go along a little faster. Their match at WrestleMania wasn't a perfect mat classic, but it was still fairly entertaining. And it could still happen in this alternate universe - just at WCW's flagship, Starrcade, instead of the "Showcase of the Immortals.

And last, but not least, this match ends with Triple H tapping out in the middle of the ring to the Scorpion Deathlock. In , The Rock was just on the verge of his super-stardom. That would turn into a starring role in Scorpion King, which started the rest. The Rock would still have several more classic matches though - putting over Brock Lesnar, wrestling Austin twice more at WrestleMania, and his more recent matches against Hulk Hogan and John Cena.

But if the WWE went away? The Rock would probably also go away, and for good. It would be much easier to shed his reputation as "just a pro wrestler" if he became a full-time actor. His classic first match with Stone Cold would go down as his last big match performance.

He would probably not get let go due to the hype already surrounding him, but it's completely possible he would have gotten lost in the shuffle and never had the opportunity to get over with his rapper gimmick. Cena is a polarizing figure, but he's had several great matches and undoubtedly carried the pro wrestling world as WWE's franchise for the last 10 years.

It's hard to imagine the wrestling world of the s without John Cena. Well, if it's hard to imagine wrestling without John Cena, it's downright impossible to imagine it without Vincent Kennedy McMahon. As an announcer, manager, owner, booker, on-air authority figure, and even active wrestler, Vince McMahon has done it all. However, it's hard to believe that he would swallow his pride and work for WCW in any role.

Bischoff coming to WWE was a little different - he was always an employee. However, in the end, Vince is too talented of a wrestling mind and performer to stay away too long. That includes talent, ring crew, stage hands, corporate office, creative, talent relations, etc, etc. It was organized and good amounts of resources were used.

Eric wouldn't of known what do with that much talent. Anyways those guys jumped ship because they were rarely used.

These were decent names, and helped edge the monday night wars in the favor of WWE. Please don't give wrestling fans that nightmare. They are already complaining how things are PG, now imagine how we would of saw Hulk Hogan's career just fizz out of 05 after he would get to squash everybody.

Then It would just die out, because why Eric didn't know how to build talent, he just used others. Travaje Pre-Show Stalwart. Joined: Nov 16, Messages: Likes Received: 9. By time came around, WCW was already next-to-dead.

The WWF wrestlers would have likely gone the same route Bret Hart did when he got there, but other than that, nothing else would have likely changed, and WCW would probably still have shut down around the time when it did. WCW was never run well at any time, they just got lucky that the New World Order caught fire like it did After that, who can say This feels like a "I hate the way WWE has turned out today" thread in disguise.

Wrestling as we know it would be completely major league and wrestling would've never hit the decline like it did in Joined: Dec 30, Messages: 1, Likes Received: No Chance In Hell.

WWE was worth too much money and if it did happen, the whole thing would've crumbled. Ted Turner woulda pulled his money, poor booking and money management woulda had the ratings plummet and we'd have no wrestling at all. WWE on the other hand was only losing money cause WCW paid rediculous amounts of money for there best names.

Vince may not be the mastermind behind ideas that he is made out to be, but he sure as hell knows how to make money and get his employees global exposure, intern making WWE alot of money.

HHH would still be out injured for months, hell I doubt he would even bother to recover. HBK was retired and more than likely remained retired. The angle would never happen, ever. As for what would happen.
