Preteen - WWF first due to location but I discovered WCW about a year later and liked both equally before stopping watching wrestling completely in '93.

Teenager - discovered wrestling again in early 1998. WCW hooked me back in with Goldberg and the Jericho/Malenko feud. Watched WWF and ECW occasionally but was mainly a WCW fan until the Fingerpoke. Then I mainly stuck to the other two and within a few months dropped WCW almost completely beyond the first hour of Nitro.

Did the Fingerpoke really turn off that many loyal WCW viewers? Like, they immediately just gave up on the show after that?

The alternative was a Kevin Nash vs Hogan match, that would have gotten them to stick around??

Well, it was the capstone to a lot of lovely booking that turned me off, and remember that they gave away the fact that the WWF was doing something really drat cool as well. Foley winning the title was a lot more interesting than Hogan being given the belt by Nash.
