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.

 

[Hoss]

For technicality sake, was he booking TNA when they moved to Mondays?

 

[Hoss]

Can't recall how long into the Hogan/Bischoff era he stuck around

 

[Death By Looch]

Well

 

[Death By Looch]

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

 

[Smart Marx]

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.

 

[Death By Looch]

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

 

[Butters]

My internet has been shit lately. watching The Office and it's all pixelated.

When they got that 2 mill, yep.

 

[Smart Marx]

Hogan and Bischoff were the executive producers, though.

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

...well

 

[Smart Marx]

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