When Russo came out and did his shoot on Hogan and Jarrett laid down, etc, Who all was in on it?

 

 

We know:

 

Russo and Jarrett obviously.

 

 

The announcers looked shocked, even Madden the smug person that he was looked in amazement.

 

 

Obviously whoever was in charge of contracts and the such was in on it.

 

 

So, um... HELP?

I don't know if anyone knows for sure, but I think it was a work. But fuck Russo for pretending like he knows what the fans want, he's not even a wrestling fan.

 

And hasn't he "retired" a dozen or so times now only to pop back up somewhere?

I think it was all planned but when Hogan said this company is in the dame shape its in is because of bullshit like this I think that was real and also the speech Russo gave after Hollywood Hogan left was real.

Earl Hebner knew even though he promised Hogan that he wouldn't screw him over.

The whole Hogan/Jarrett thing was a work. Russo's tirade afterwards was a shoot.

Thank you voice of reason!

Vince Russo didn't know what the fans wanted? I remember hearing Booker T get the biggest pop out of a WCW crowd in a long time when he won the title that night. That was definitely what the fans wanted.

Yeah, great idea to have Booker job to Kanyon just a few matches before winning the world title.

 

While I'm all for Booker winning the belt I don't like that they bumped him from midcard to main event in a matter of one show. Didn't he pin Goldberg clean the next night or something?

He pinned Goldberg a week or two later in Cleveland with a Book End.

Yeah, how can you lose to Kanyon one week, and go over Goldberg clean right after. Like I said, I'm glad he got the spot, but they could have booked it better.

My big complaint is that I don't think Kanyon ever got a Title shot. You'd think he'd be belly-hooing around saying he's the Real World's Champion until he gets a shot on Nitro/Thunder. Then, Booker can beat him clean and move on.

I think he made some noise about it and got into a 4 way No.1 Contenders match.

In which he ulimately lost, right?

Yeah. Steiner and Jarrett were in it but I can't remember the 4th person. Probably Nash or Goldberg.
