Bischoff used the WCW for his self masturbatory indulgences? I am shocked.

In theory it made sense, Sturgis is a place where middle class white dudes go to feel like tough outlaws by rubbing shoulders with biker dudes and the NWO fueled WCW was all about middle aged tough dudes and an outlaw image. The main problem was they didn't pull any money at the gate (not a huge issue if they worked around that, but it's WCW so they didn't) and them trying to maintain any kind of cohesion with the WCW storyline when most of the people there were drunk dudes who wanted to watch guys punch each other and cheer for Hogan. They should have structured it as an NWO focused PPV and had the announcers/ads play up that since these were badass biker dudes they were going to cheer for the bad guys (which is what happened anyways) and then they should have presented it much like Souled Out or the WWE ECW where it was an event with a loose shootfight theme and the idea that it was no holds barred and that ANYTHING COULD HAPPEN. It would have been easy to manipulate the crowd if they had tried and stacked the face side of it with a bunch of guys they knew the spectators would hate but instead they ran what ended up being a really expensive house show in the middle of a field with terrible heat that was confusing.
