They could have made money on Goldberg

a lot of big money too

Turner loves wrestling with a passion, and especially loved Jim Crockett Promotions, so much so he was willing to overpay for it just to keep it on hus TV.

If Turner Broadcasting never merged with Time Warner, yeah, I think WCW stays fairly secure. It wouldn't even matter with WWF's dominance too. Still though, that Russo era is damn near unwatchable.

When I love goofy shit and Russo shit wants me to turn it off, yeah, don't do that

I mean it would exist but would it even be good?

We ain't gotta worry about that, Dark. We got a whole generation of of WWE haters watchin' AEW on the same network

 

[Death Walker]

and that promotion gotta loooooooooooooooooooooong way to go

Good is pretty subjective, but it would definitely still be the biggest alternative to WWE. Plus Impact probably never happens.

 

[Barry Poppins]

AEW already has its core, and it's doing perfectly fine. It took JCP/WCW about 10 years to catch up to WWE

fair enough but as long it could hold up financially then of course it would be good enough to remain as the WWE alternative

 

[Death Walker]

imo I just never got into their product over there, it was somewhat interesting

 

[Barry Poppins]

I will also say that JCP always had a core fan group, mostly settled in Southeastern America.

 

[Barry Poppins]

For AEW, their core group in my opinion has been the folks looking for something different to WWE and who abandoned Impact after 2011.

 

[Death Walker]

I can't deny either statement

 

[Kiffy Lube]

If AEW's merch sales don't keep it afloat, they're fucked but Khan seems to know what he's doin'. Gettin' rid of excess talent when needed
