Death of WCW, The
Death of WCW, The: 10th Anniversary Edition of the Bestselling Classic - Revised and Expanded | R.D. Reynolds, Bryan Alvarez
3 posts | 5 read
As history repeats itself, a wrestling classic becomes even more relevant. In 1997, World Championship Wrestling was on top. It was the number-one pro wrestling company in the world, and the highest-rated show on cable television. Each week, fans tuned in to Monday Nitro, flocked to sold-out arenas, and carried home truckloads of WCW merchandise. It seemed the company could do no wrong. But by 2001, however, everything had bottomed out. The company - having lost a whopping 95% of its audience - was sold for next to nothing to Vince McMahon and World Wrestling Entertainment. WCW was laid to rest. What went wrong? This expanded and updated version of the bestselling Death of WCW takes readers through a detailed dissection of WCW's downfall, including even more commentary from the men who were there and serves as an object lesson - and dire warning - as WWE and TNA hurtle toward the 15th anniversary of WCW's demise.

A predominantly WWE viewpoint on the decline of their competitor. Take it with a grain of salt.

Having casually watched wrestling all my life it was shocking to see the downfall of at onetime one of the biggest wrestling companies out there. This book perfectly breaks down the faults in the companies running as well as its stars and you get a complete year by year breakdown almost if the highs and ultimately lows of the promotion. Wrestling fans really do need to read this book before any other as it‘s mind blowing what went on in that place
