When the attitude era ended and it turned in to a show that was entirely about negroes shucking and jiving.

2000 then i started watching it again in 2009 and stop again when Mr. Excitement left

Before I started.

When I was about 10.

Never started.

Never really understood what the draw was, it's just a bunch of oiled up buff dudes roughhousing.

Shortly after WCW was absorbed into the WWF (WWE).
'96 - '98 WCW was the better product, lots of the very best promos and mic work come from here.

That doesn't look like it was done properly

Holyshit Goldberg can't fkn stop botching, he probably fucked taker's neck with that jackhammer.
Also 2008, I tuned in to watch it with my nephew last Monday and I have no idea who these people are lol, every wrestler I know are gone but I noticed they're treating diva matches more seriously which I think is pretty cool.

When I was around 10 or 11. This shit is for kids, I don't know how grown people are into this. It's just a notch below actual sports. It's for retards.

Never

When Hogan went heel

It's something that low IQ people like; it's also something high IQ people find entertaining for other reasons.

Right around when they changed the smackdown intro. Picked it back up after summer of punk, but dropped it again when Bryan retired.

I'd highly recommend watching his firefly funhouse sentiments on YouTube and then ignoring every fucking thing else that shit show RAW has to offer. Wyatt is the only person on roster at the moment that deserves to get out of there and actually produce kino outside of that awful soul sucking industry

only fags liked WCW

Early 2000s when Stone Cold stopped wrestling on a regular basis.

FPOD killing WCW is one of biggest misconceptions that has plagued the IWC for years.

To simple minded morons the angle was just a Finger Poke but to people who actually have product knowledge; it was also an elaborate show long storyline, the reuniting of The Outsiders, the merger of nWo B&W & nWo Wolfpac, the crowning of a new WCW World Heavyweight Champion, the heel turns of Kevin Nash & Lex Luger & one of the best professional wrestling beatdowns I have ever witnessed, in which Goldberg was beaten, handcuffed, tasered & tagged. With almost 40,000 fans in attendance at the Georgia Dome that night, the atmosphere was incredible.

While some of the following events described may not have played out, the initial intent was there & any criticism should be attributed to the booking after the FPOD not the FPOD itself. Prior to the FPOD WCW had already been losing in the ratings war against the WWF for 9 weeks. They needed to come up with something big if they were to try & claw some momentum back.

In my opinion, the FPOD was a creative swerve that planted the seeds for months of television. The angle reunited the nWo to its strongest core (Hollywood Hogan, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Lex Luger, Scott Steiner, Buff Bagwell) by merging the elite members of the two nWo factions together - the purpose being to create a heel factory consisting of top stars for Goldberg to work with. With Ric Flair beating Eric Bischoff to become WCW President, the two nWo leaders put their differences aside because the WCW had gained strength. It was also fitting Hogan orchestrated his revenge to regain the WCW title at the Georgia Dome - the same place Goldberg beat him for the title six months prior. In response to criticism that 38,809 (34,788 paid) fans were screwed out of seeing the advertised main event, WCW had already sold 25,483 tickets before the Nash vs. Goldberg rematch had even been announced.

This, when Stone Cold stop the wrestling that was it for me I didn't give a shit about The cock

>When did you stop watching wrestling?
When my age became countable in more than one digit

About 15 years ago. Although my buddy took me to a Chikara royal rumble a few weeks ago and I had a blast. I think embracing the theatrical and melodramatic component of the the thing really lends itself well to the experience. There's something off putting to me about WWE's ever present insistence that there's a level of seriousness or reality to their entertainment. It becomes a distraction that won't let me enjoy it for what it is.

I have been, and I have enjoyed it but fuck the WWE, Wyatt has too much talent to be signed to that shithole of a company.

Goldberg was knocked out and didnt know what the fuck he was doing
He ran headfirst into the ringpost then we had a horrific botched Tombstone

Both guys could have been paralysed

This is why I should never stop going to Yea Forums, I miss shit like this. Did they really have another arabian shitshow after the first circus no one liked?

Honestly when WWE stopped having stars. There's no one I want to go to see. Everyone is small or have no personality. They all lack "it."

When Owen Hart died in flight and seeing everyone cry made me realize it's all fake. Completely ruined the sporting competition.
