Had some great years in TNA too
Their best years. He consistently got TNA Impact over a million viewers. WCW is the only place he didn't technically give the company their goat ratings.

If you think about the storylines they drove... it's likely

Maybe... the Fingerpoke doesn't kill the ratings though and it seems like it's not clear who actually came up with the idea, just that Bischoff gave the green light
It did not, no. And I tell this to people all the time. WCW maintained a solid 5 for a month after that and did two of their top 10 ppv buys ever in February and March of 1999, but Nash's booking that starts either before or just after the fingerpoke leads to the downturn. Turn on a June episode of Nitro and see what Nash was putting out there.

Maybe he was head booker, but Bischoff and Hogan pulled the strings

Hogan and Bischoff were the executive producers, though.

Sounds like something they would do. You better go buying one. All Hail Your Apple Overlord.

TNA basically tanks the moment he's gone. Like you can track their swift fall.
