Id have rather listened to Jim Cornette (in character) than Tony.

May not have been 100% his fault. Feel like id have liked it more had it just been tony and the brain. Ross and King got better when Vince gtfo..But brain and tony didn't really respect each other much, and I take Bobby's side.

I was a New York fan from beginning to end. Atlanta was always sub par in production (which was ironic). They had 1 storyline, and an organic star they had no idea how to use. And everything suffered. Maybe a kind of "well i don't want to listen to you talk about shite that i dont want to see."

They should have given the cruiserweights, lucha, and etc a separate show on Thursday. Pushed them hard.

Have them integrate just sometimes..Instead of pushing the same stars into two shows. That show would have had its own fans

Eh, WWE actually did this recently and literally no one watches. And the Lucha and cruisers had almost as much to do with Nitros success as the nwo. They intentionally put them on at the end of the first hour because they knew people wouldn't flip over as Raw started because of how high energy they were. And the ratings reflected that.

Not to mention all the future stars that came from it like Jericho and Rey.
