Kevin Nash and DDP were beating that ass like a drum towards the end

My favourite thing is Paul Wight showing up on WWE television and losing to Stone Cold in his first televised match lol

The story Bruce Prichard gave about why that happened is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard in wrestling and fits entirely well with WWE's booking mentality post-Attitude Era.

They purposely deflated the hype he brought in solely just to see how he'd react backstage afterwards. They thought he'd flip out backstage over losing his first notable match and when that didn't happen, that left them with damaged goods and no real big plans for him at the time.

I got the timeline of In Your House PPVs and WCW monthly PPVs off. Bischoff started the hotshotting. Vince was forced to play by Bischoff’s rules short-term. Sure.

That still doesn’t excuse his use of Big Show though. Especially if his worth was diminished like you think it was. If that were the case then they still could have used him part-time and built him as a special attraction. Because he was worthless, right? You’ve gotta throw Rock and/or Austin on every show but Show was an un-repaired WCW cast-off. Not having to put him on every show could have been a luxury.

I feel like I remember you arguing that Brock jobbing constantly wasn’t a big deal and doesn’t hurt him in the long rung.

The fact that you don’t think a poor 2 year stint in WCW in the late 90s could not possibly be overcome in 20 years is odd.
