I think Test and Billy Gunn will go to WCW with Shane now, maybe Val Venis and the Godfather will go too because I think RTC is just about over johnny...

and RVD will be in WCW-- what better way to put over a promotion by making The Whole Fucking Show your main guy? and the show will be on later in the night so they can get away with a lot more


I stand alone on the cliffs of the world,
no-one ever tends to me.
Sitting alone covered in breeze.
Some things are so my mind can breathe.

The waiting is hard, fuckin' takes so long.
Draped in sun, hands in sand.
Earth acid cleanses me.
It cleanses me clean, but the world it never comes(Kyuss, Space Cadet)

I think that WCW will be more of the cruiserweight division with the little guys, and some token big guys like test. RVD, he is a different story, who knows what he will do. I cant wait to see the (sorta)final rosters for both companies.

Its a shame that they are going to have to have people jump ship. It takes away from the interpromotional things down the road. I was hoping some of the current WCW talent would sign on with the new WCW. But it looks as though those guys are truly fucking lazy pricks.

I disagree, putting guys in WCW that are not used that much is a good idea. Billy Gunn has talent, I just hate him. Test has a chance to be huge and he really helped his cause last night at the PPV. Also Al Snow would be great in the new WCW. I could also see Mick Foley as the Commissioner.

I heard they are willing to bring in some big guys, whether WWF buys them out or they accept a buyout from AOL, like Booker T, Flair, and maybe even Scott Steiner.

Nash said he will sit out and come back to WWF when his contract ends. Goldberg is just a lazy piece of shit whose star has fallen considerably. He thinks he is way bigger than the business. So really f him.

They most likely arent going to be doing too much swaping of wrestlers. Most of the guys that were in wcw that they signed will stay for the new wcw, and id be surprised to see wwf send any of their guys to the new wcw.

Can't really say that I blame the guys who are sitting out thier contracts from the old WCW. Think about it, if your employer got bought out by another company, but according to your contract, you can either, A)Sit at home, collect your salary, and spend quality time with your family, or B)Accept a buyout at 50% to 70% of the money you are owed, and go right back to work for the new company. I think I would go with A. Nash for example, has never hid the fact that he is only in this for the money, he doesn't give a crap about pleasing his fans. As for Goldberg though, I think he really is delusional. Due to the rediculous, and undeserved push he got, he truly believes that he can sit at home and pout, and Vinny-Mac will drop off buckets of gold dubloons, part ownership in WWFE, and the chance to have Anal with Stephanie just to get him to take the buyout and sign with him. Sorry Billy boy, not gonna happen. Personally, If some of these WCW guys never step foot in a ring again, I really wouldn't care all that much.

For some guys, sitting out the rest of their contract isnt too bad of an idea but for most of them i think its pretty much career suicide. Think about it, unless your one of the older wrestlers that may not have much time left in the business, your going to eventually want your job back after your current contract runs out and how generous do you think vince is going to be when it comes time to come back to work knowing that you pretty much stuck it to him by not coming and helping out with the new wcw. I think this is where they will definately seperate the wrestlers who truly love the business and those who are just in it for the money, and i think it will make the new wcw that much better to get rid of all the wrestlers who's hearts were never in it.

Don't blame Canada...Blame YOURSELF!

That is totally true about you people who have
posted Earlier. 90% of the wrestlers are going to
sit it out and see what Mac will do with their
beloved WcW. At this time Hulk Hogan and Jimmy
heart are in talks with Universial Studios in Fl
to start up a New Federation. I doubt this will
happen cause it will just turn out to be an OLD
Foogy Federation. RVD at this present time working
on doing Movies and TV spots, but has been talking
to J.R. Ross. The people who might jump ship to
WcW will be, Mr. Ass Billy Gunn, Test (maybe),
most of RTC, and that jap tag duo (forgot their
name) see the push they are getting. At this
present moment nothing else is comming to mind. I
will post more things that
come to surface.
