Okay it is wild to me that the Black Saturday episode jumped all the way ahead to Vince's current scandal and the Endeavor merger. I did not know all that was behind Black Saturday though. Legit fascinating.

Watched the A&E show on Austin's last match & really enjoyed it. Doesn't waste time or rehash a lot, which I liked especially with him & Owens. Really surprised me with how much leeway they got to have fun & call things on the fly.

Watched the Sandman episode and two things stuck out: 1. He is one of the last wrestlers I would have expected to be a Chip & Dale dancer and gigolo. 2. It felt off hear his daughter talk about his time in ECW. She had to be in her early teens at that time? Most kids are like "Yeah, Dad was gone all the time. He was such a great father when he was home though. Except when he is intoxicated and beats up Mom." It felt like she lived through his ECW era as an adult right along with him though.

I hope they provide a definitive answer as to who killed WCW and not a generic "Well no one factor truly killed WCW, a number of them did" What I want is "Who killed WCW? Mark Jindrak. Thank you for watching, goodbye"

If this was a WWE doc on A&E the answer would be "WWE superiority killed WCW".

a dumb moron posted:Jamie Kellner killed WCW. I feel like it could be a bit of both. I don't know for certain but I had the impression that not many Turner execs liked WCW; it was crass, lowbrow, populist, working-class entertainment, and corporations had already been trying to move away from that sort of branding for years in order to find more respectable and lucrative* offerings. They could put up with it when it was highly and immediately successful, but when it fell flat on its face a lot of them probably couldn't wait to give it the boot. I read that Turner himself had nostalgia for wrestling but I think he had pretty much no power at the end? * notwithstanding the billions lost in the AOL merger, lol

MassRafter and Bix would be better references for this but I believe both of them said Jamie Kellner denied he cancelled WCW because he hated wrestling. But this is also the guy who cancelled Animaniacs so gently caress him regardless.

We all killed WCW because none of us believed hard enough, like Tinkerbell.

I couldn't get through the first 5 minutes of the premiere of "Who Killed WCW" because I knew it was gonna be mostly bullshit.

They definitely seem like they got an impressive collection of bullshitters together. Bret seems like he'll be funny in a "gently caress this, gently caress everyone" way though
