One thing that I liked about WCW was that they actually put a lot of stock in Nitro and Thunder.
WWE never has a world title change hands on Raw...
they save that for the PPVs.
but it was something that would happen on WCW every so often and some of the greatest moments in WCW history happened on Nitro.
I can remember when Goldberg completed his title run and beat Hollywood on Nitro.
Karl Malone came out to ringside and gave Hennig a diamond-cutter (which is hard to do when you're a foot taller than someone lol)

I can also remember two big blunders in the length of events as well..
I remember Halloween Havoc 98 when I was rooting for DDP against Goldberg for the title and the PPV cut out seconds into the match...

I also remember Sting losing the title to Hogan on Nitro after the cameras quit rolling the day after he won the title for his first time as the gothic sting.

I remember the Ultimate Warrior making a comeback that garnered a lot of interest but it was squashed quickly and he was written out of the script in general. I don't know the whole story but I'm assuming he went off the deep end again.

I loved everything about WCW but IMO they just got away from what was working.
Big name guys going at it every night...
there wasn't 50 stables going at it for the most part...
It was WCW vs NWO - Good Guys vs Bad Guys

The had something unique with the cruiserweight division...
that may have been more entertaining than anything else.
So many high flyers and tag-teams that just did crazy stuff on a regular basis.

They had the TV title that was defended every week and they usually had a few fan favorites going at it for that.

It lasted for 3 hours and they probably had twice the matches that WWF did all night.

But they just started getting stupid...
I don't know if they just ran out of ideas or if they just started getting cocky.

Dusty you may know this....
Didn't the american dream himself used to be in charge of the creative element at WCW?
