General Chit-Chat Thread - No Spoilers

WCW International was a governing body like IWGP. It didn't stand for International, like the regional word.

 

[Chris]

Yeah I think business wise Turner treated WCW as separate where Anthem just treated Impact as them renaming the TNA promotion

 

[Smart Marx]

Consolidated into, meaning the same company, one company. I mean all their shows stayed on the air and PPV continued, etc. The company never folded. In fact, all the contracts bought out never expired. It wasn't like WWE when they bought WCW and had to renew them under new contracts.

 

[Smart Marx]

I don't think Turner did. WCW never skipped a beat on WCW Saturday Night. In fact, WCW branding didn't takeover everything until like 1991.

Consolidation (n) -

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

the action or process of combining a number of things into a single more effective or coherent whole.

 

[Smart Marx]

Meaning JCP was still a part of it.

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

That's not what it means by combining.

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

You are missing the forest for the fucking trees.

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

JCP and WCW are two different companies. When Turner bought JCP, he shut it down and used the rights he had to turn it into WCW.

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

Plain as.

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

Simple as.

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

No other meaning.

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

JCP Closed.

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

Closed and DIED.
