I remember that episode. The entire locker room came out and held her on their shoulders to close the show

Ugh terrible decision

It's so funny to me bc you could have just tweaked everything slightly and gotten mostly the same outcome without it being horrible programming. Have the big NWO reforming between the two groups actually happen AT STARRCADE the same night as Hall using the stun gun and stuff. Nash was over af, him winning wasn't the worst booking decision, and this way there's no fingerpoke and Nash (who was more over) would actually stay champion of the reformed super nwo instead of fucking Hogan.

The last part was probably the reason why this idea didn't work tho, it had to be Hogan brother

My biggest issue has been the stun gun and the finger poke like a week later. Not so much Nash going over.

But hindsight is always 20/20

As much as I loved Goldberg at the time, I was elated that Nash won because he was one of my guys too. Even at the age I was (probably around 12/13) I thought the aftermath with the finger poke was lame, and it didn’t help that I never liked Hogan.

Hogan and Flairs angle didn't need a title.....as stupid as that entire thung was.

Nash should've kept the title, doubt he wanted it since he was starting the booking gig.

And they shouldn't have beaten down Goldberg.....made him just another nWo victim.

The whole angle with Goldberg being arrested for attempted sexual assault(iirc), being sent to jail, then cleared and driven from the jail to the arena(which was across the street) only to get beat down by a reuniting NWO went over like a fart in church

WCW was circling the toilet creatively since halloween Havoc that......99 WCW was even worse than 00 Russo era.
