>It's pretty funny but I can't stand seeing WCW wrestling because it is so like rednecky and so like geeky and it's like real soft. I can only watch ECW and WWF where there's like really violence and blood and stuff. I can't watch that fucking Ted Turner crap.

ECW was a fucking mud show and WWF was hot garbage until Russo left, WCW was basically the only game in town.

for me, early 90s WCW is max comfy
>>
>>19112985
i thought WCW was considered like more mature and aimed at an older audience than the kiddy focused WWF at the time
>>
>>19115360
it was more of a north vs south thing than an age thing generally
>>
>>19115364
really that's interesting. what made WCW more southern/"rednecky"? i know it was based out of atlanta of course and WWF NYC/stamford but is there anything besides that? i have never watched it.
>>
>>19115360
It was. We all grew up watching WWF but by the early 90s it was sort of just that thing we watched when we were kids but grew out of.
WCW with the nWo angle brought a lot of us who had tuned in back. WWF then started leaning into edgy stuff, but it was a Russo-directed riskier product so a lot of people didn't tune into it for a while.
Once they dropped Russo (and WCW made the mistake of picking him up), the tides shifted pretty dramatically. I was in high school at the time and wouldn't give WWF the time of day until around 1999/2000, then I found myself watching more of that than WCW, which was becoming a bit cringe.
I think they figured they needed Russo because they needed younger stars. They coasted on the old stars like Hogan because that's who everyone wanted to see for a while but that only lasts so long and they didn't do a great job building guys to take their places.

I touched finger horns with this guy in 2010 during How the Gods Kill. Also my ears rang for at least a week. Badass show
>>
>>19115388
it was mostly due to where the companies ran most of their events
both promotions did do shows in the north and south of course. But I'm sure if you'd dissect all the locations over the years WCW proportionately did more shows in the south, and WWF in the north. This would have been much more pronounced prior to late 80s/early 90s so in some ways I guess a lot of it would be a carry over from that era.

Danzig's confused as southern wrestling had always been more violent and stiff. 18 guys bladed at Starcade 85 and 11 the next year. After Turner bought Crockett and created WCW they tried more to compete nationally with WWF and inserted more cartoony wrestlecrap and less violence than southern rasslin. Danzig's 4 Horseman shirt would make you think he knew this and also his guy Rick Rubin funded SMW and wanted Cornette to crank up the southerness.

>>19113301
97+ every match ended with some sort of NWO interference
>>
>>19116504
given the ECW reference, this would be in mid to late 90s, where WWE and ECW had more blood and booba, as WCW was PG with heavy restrictions at the time
>>
>>19116531
It's true but, I mean, the NWO was what everyone was there to see because no one gave a shit about Dubya-See-Dubya
