They had no game plan for that

 

[Petty]

I have a feeling even though it's never talked about Hogan and Ric had a real heat.

 

[Necro]

Well that is until NWO and Golberg and Sting started making huge money on merch

 

[Necro]

and obviously Hogan haha

 

[Petty]

nWo merch numbers had to be crazy. I wonder if that number of how much they sold in merch Is listed somewhere.

 

[Necro]

I think Flair just doesn't respect Hogan a wrestler. Hogan is a showman more so and Flair is a wrestler.

 

[Necro]

On a semi related note Bischoff said the guy who was running Japan was pocketing all the NWO t-shirt sales and eventually got caught haha

 

[Petty]

lol

 

[Necro]

the NWO t-shirt sales in Japan were insane

 

[Necro]

more than even America

 

[Petty]

I kinda wanna buy an nWo shirt now

 

[Necro]

Ironic cause Bischoff obviously stole the idea of the NWO from Japan and to this day denies he die.

 

[Necro]

he did

 

[Petty]

thats news to me

 

[Necro]

The nWo storyline was an idea created by WCW Executive Vice President Eric Bischoff, whose inspiration for the angle came after attending New Japan Pro-Wrestling's Battle Formation show at the Tokyo Dome on April 29, 1996.
