It would have been similar to TNA.
>>
>>19925906
Came to post this. Whatever it would have been would have just been very close to what TNA actually was.

It had been shit for years and it would have always been shit. TNA with Goldberg would have still been shit.

>>WWF turns RAW into WCW Raw
that's fucking retarded
>>
>>19925906
Yep.TNA inherited most of WCW's infrastructure, from the production people to the office. We would probably be spared the Jarrett superpush, but Bischoff would have been main eventing with Hogan, Nash, DDP and Goldberg well into the 2010's.

That was the original plan but the wwe realized that the average fan was taught to hate wcw so that plan was quickly abandoned.

Bischoff wouldn’t have been able to afford Hogan, who already wanted to go back to WWE anyway. Turner’s money was out of the picture. Bischoff’s plan was to build 3,000-seat arena in Vegas to tape weekly TV.

It would have been almost exactly like TNA.

>>19927166
how were WWF taught to hate WCW? many people during the late 90s would switch between to two shows. only diehard WCW fans believe that
>>
>>19925906
From the way Eric described what he wanted for the future of WCW it sounded a lot like classic ROH with a budget. A focus on younger, more athletic guys. I think he’s full of shit though.
>>
>>19925859
zamn what a fucking genius
>>
>>19925667
WWF having any part in it fails every time.

Things Bischoff had in the works if Fusient bought WCW:

>negotiating with FX about moving Nitro to that channel
>emanate live every Monday from the Hard Rock Cafe in Las Vegas
>Joey Styles and Don Callis, poached from ECW, on commentary
>RVD poached from the dying ECW
>Steve Corino poached from the dying ECW
>revitalized Cruiserweight division as special attraction with new tag belts
>building to Goldberg vs Scott Steiner for Starrcade 2001 as their big new PPV attraction
