      It was just the fact that WWE at the time were looking for big stars and anyone who wasn’t was required to go through NVW, or later down the line Tough Enough. Crowbar did however did do dark matches in WWE after WCW got bought out, he lost all of his dark matches. Crowbar was a very talented wrestler, he just didn’t have a powerful name in him and he didn’t know anyone in the industry that could have vouched for him except for Sabu, which at that time Sabu wasn’t very well liked.

    We have a friend who we nicknamed Amber Lamps(my mom thought her last name actually *was* Lamps for the longest time!), so when you did that bit, I started cracking up!
    Hope you and your family have a good holiday!

    I was pretty burned out on the WWF by late 2000 and watched a ton of the last few months of WCW, it always makes me happy to see reviews from this era! Mike Awesome, Steiner, Totally Buffed, 3 Count, Lance Storm and KroniK would always keep my TV on TNT when they were on!

      I think in wrestling terms the year 2000 was crap for all 3 company's WWF /WWE made a lot of money but the product didn't feel right until the next year 2001, WCW crap creative, rubbish storylines, poor decisions, lucrative contracts ect also loosing money on a weekly basis ECW start of the money troubles heyman not paying talent on time, weird decisions some talent refused to preform without being payed which you can't blame them for, and network TV issues on TNN

    Going through one of my WWW binge watching phases (happens at least 3 times a year) and I never picked up on the subtle sad sounding horns at 9:21. Was putting a frame up in my hallway and had to double take and rewind cause I had no idea what I heard. Had me dying laughing every time I played it back.

    What's amazing about the main event is that it's easy to forget that Steiner and Vicious were an active part of WCW 10 years prior. They just weren't there from start to finish, like Sting was. The match DID feel empty, but in some ways, it was fitting to feature two NEAR-originals for the company in the send-off for Starrcade. Which is even more amazing if you consider how crazy the WCW roster was at the time.

    I was a WCW guy. I absolutely celebrated when Bischoff brought in Hulk. Nitro. I was astonished when he brought in Hall and Nash. When the NwO was formed I was beside myself. Crow sting…. 83 weeks….. finger poke…. Russo…. New blood…. It was the ultimate bell curve. The last nitro…. I watched. I smiled when booker got the belt. I just loved sting and flair… one last time. But there were the McMahons rubbing our face in the fact that they won. AOL time Warner killed wcw. Not Eric. Ted would never have sold wcw to Vince. Sigh.
