No doubt the WWF was at it's peak from 1997-2003. 2003 is when I feel it really started to decline.
Once The Rock left I was done. I'm just glad they didn't bury The Rock when he was in the Nation of Domination. Anyone remember D-Lo's damn chest plate?

I think everybody on this thread was right. If WcW didnt cater to the older star and groom the newer stars like Eddie, Chris, Raven and others, I think they would be still around today. Its sad because I really like WCW including the Lightweight class (was a treated to see every week), that 3 out of 5 epic battle between Chris and Booker T and others including that wheel from Havoc (Texas Tornado, Lumberjacks with 2x4, Street Fight).
They is better then what WWE has on right now.

yeah when it switched to Nitro and right around the start of the MNW...wcw was really something special. I think Chris Benoit fought Raven in a falls count anywhere match and they went all around the arena. I thought that was a one of the moments when you realized that everything was different.
I was always a bigger wwf guy...save for around that 95-96 window of time where wcw was just booking great shows (around when wwe had the US vs canada angle going)

96 was awful for the WWF, they had nothing against the nWo and cruiserweights in WCW.

I always wondered how much blow and hookers Lee Marshall was doing on the 800-collect road report parties

It's a damn shame that the final WCW show was in Panama City Beach and not Atlanta, Baltimore, Charlotte, or Greensboro. This would've been so much more epic.

WCW had two downfalls in my opinion. One it was much more family friendly than the WWE. That may have caused the focus group (males 18-35) to lose interest. Two they ran the NWO story line to long. It got old and people lost interest. At that time WWE started to blow them out the water.
