And Milwaukee

 

[Comrade Khan]

So Vince McMahon helped create AEW

well that was always the case, you cannot have an alternative without something to differentiate yourself from in the first place

 

[Comrade Khan]

And Milwaukee

did weever find out what happened with lana in Milwaukee?

 

[Loochblade]

I always find it hilarious tbh that everyone always thinks Vince saved wrestling when he quite honestly didn't. The nWo in WCW revived interest in wrestling, and then Cody Rhodes and company getting a Turner deal brought back a lot of lapsed fans to an alternative product, even if it isn't my cup of tea. Vince never did a fucking thing outside of being just smart enough to have Austin be the face of the company in 1998.

And even that... let's be honest, he almost had no choice other than doing that.

When was this though?

 

[Loochblade]

It started with AJ to WWE

AEW is the house that AJ Styles built

 

[Comrade Khan]

When was this though?

it was during the Rusev Day saga when Opera guy turned on Rusev and implied he fucked Lana

The WWE narrative that Vince was desperate is probably true but like, WCW's mismanagement with Austin gave him to Vince on a golden platter. The Attitude Era was huge for wrestling but on re-watches it is almost unambiguously awful.

Misusing Goldberg killed WCW and sparked a serious downturn in WWE

[Barry Poppins]

Seriously, I cannot tell you how many Nitros and RAWs there are in the attitude era that are just... awful, awful, awful.
