But bischoff has always said that he and Sonny Ohno were in Japan all the time for business and that’s where the inspiration came from. He’s never once said he had no idea what was going on in Japan. Go back to meltzer’s circle jerk forums.

Bro i was 11 in 95 so I had it even better because my early early childhood was Hulkamania like the midst of Hulkamania when it was the biggest thing ever in life and then to see him turn in 96 after I had quit watching wrestling because in 94 when he went to wcwi quit watching because I didn't know WCW at that time I saw it as that all that shity wrestling that looks like it's a like rinky-dink company that's stuck in the early eighties you know but then when he turned on bash at the beach 96 I was instantly hooked again. I'm a Hulk Hogan guy through and through I'll watch that guy to the end of time even though he is not the greatest person in the world I can't help it cuz I was just a true hulkamaniac. But anyway my point is I was the luckiest because I was a tiny kid at the height of the 80s era then I was getting into my preteen and teen years during the Attitude Era. Then when WCW went to shit in 99 I stopped watching again and only watched here in there until 2001 when WCW went away completely and I stopped watching wrestling all together plus I was too busy partying all the time.

The first wrestler i ever chose in those aki games was Kevin Nash, and he had the coolest moves of all the heavyweights in the game. My cousins and friends always gave me shit for picking him or raven when revenge came out, and its just funny realizing how they were marks like a mofo.

This was a great Time to be a teen!!! My crew was DX n my brother n his crew was NWO we had mega wrestling brawls on our block for almost a year ..we built a ring we made belts and everyone in the neighborhood was affiliated with one or another! The parents were even entertained…. they use to come out n watch us wrestle all the time.. they supplied us with med kits and funded our belt making habits … I wish we would of been ahead of the game and recorded then KZreadd the stuff we did… we literally had story lines we use to basically write the matches we had announcers n I’m talking about it was the perfect time to be a kid.. it got so huge our whole school ended up apart of this and everyone in the area will end up in our little arena after school… brawls started happening in school to the point the gym teacher let us do open gym(gym accessible after school) so we can wrestle there… all of this ended when me n my cousin won the tag titles from some kids that made their belts. When we won the belts their parents were aggressive n disrespectful and made it a huge problem …we gave the belts back but cut them out of being able to play…we were upset because we always lost n gave up the belts with no problem … everyone did..they were the first ones to do the b.s then they purposely try to destroy our little arena one night …the next day the rest of us beat their ass then the cops were called and shut us down… our arena was in an abandoned lot where we made a ring we had a 2 floor club house ran electricity from our home and we would play golden eye or WCW VS NWO on Nintendo 64… eventually we were able to use the arena again but it was never the same because the adults weren’t allowing us to really wrestle.. But over all NWO was a huge part of our child hood.. fun times.. these kids will never know the feeling of dropping an elbow off of a tree on to ur friend in an homemade ring in front of all your friends girls included then winning the belt ur sister n her friends made the night before…. Those nights I use to wrap my knee up and walk to the bodega with my new belt to buy a quarter juice n 15 cent ice pop feeling like I was the man… I would feel tired feel hurt and act like I was really a world champion… I wish my son n his friends had a taste of that now all they know is Fortnite and iPhones …it’s a shame but my childhood was SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTT 🤘🏽🤘🏽

Hindsight is 2020 but imagine if you had done this with Scott Hall: after the Montreal Screwjob and the move to WCW, you sacrifice Hogan by making Hart your appointed champion, you and Hall become the final bosses. So after Hart is chosen as Hogans replacement, he is beaten down over losing to Sting. Then Hogan works with the other WWE guys and Sullivan to get control back. As for the NWO, Hart destroys Sting who becomes a champion without a cause. You do a mini feud with the Macho Man for the title before allowing more and different challenges with Hart who is forced to work as a heel. Then after 2 years you change up your champion again while owning the tag belts and control of the Promotion. Goldberg never becomes a thing. This might have won the Monday night war.
