My friend and I were really into the MIA vs. Team Canada feud for some reason.

Booker T. & Scott Steiner each worked their asses off as world champ despite it being the dying days

Stacy Keibler sure is pretty. Spice and Chae were still Nitro Girls in the beginning of the year.

Everything else was painful, to quote Arn Anderson, "This isn't even a bad Indy show, it's worse"

Hugh G. Rection was solid.

Tank Abbott pulling out a knife and threatening to f***ing kill Big Al cut Big Al's beard was hilarious. That was in 2000, right?

[Reflecto]

Vince Russo may be a dumb, stupid, out-of-touch racist...but even though WCW 2000 was maligned, Russo DID THE RIGHT THING when he booked WCW 2000.

Similarly to WWF in 1997, Russo was running the right style for what WCW needed:

-Give the roster an enema and flush out the old draws who no longer matter and were clogging the show up.
-Build around the hot midcarders that the crowd fell in love with.
-Pander to the hardcore fans, as the only people who'd stick around for the rebuilding process.

Apparently, DDP and Nash were a tag team called 'The Insiders', and I have no memory of this whatsoever

3 Count with Tank Abbott

It made Death of WCW a much more entertaining read.

Re-watching it now the only thing positive I can say is they had a ton of really attractive women on the roster and they were pretty much all gone by the end of 2000.

It gave us the Yappapi Strap Match, brother!

Since I can't like this post twice, i'll just let Macho Man's thumbs up serve as my second like.

Scott Steiner vs Goldberg at Fall Brawl 2000 was one of 2000's most underrated matches.

No but you did see a Tank Abbott beating up a shirtless Mark Madden. I would have put that as a positive if it wasn't for shirtless Mark Madden.

Because of WCW 2000, Keep It 2000 exists which is my favorite podcast right now.

[Nikki Heyman]

MIA vs. Team Canada was some of the most insane stuff I'd ever watched.

3count vs. Jung Dragons was fun too

["Playboy" Don Douglas]

It wasn't WCW's brief 2001.
