Contents 1 Objectivity? 2 Explanation 3 Ratings decline untrue 4 Can we link the video?

[edit] Objectivity?

Who says that Hogan/Nash "would have been one of the greatest matches of all time?" That's purely opinion, and, personally, a match with two guys that can't WALK without getting hurt doesn't sound like one of the "greatest of all time." VelvetKevorkian 04:00, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Agreed, "greatest" should be replaced with "biggest", and even then I'm not so sure it would be true. All the paragraphs that were recently added are somewhat poor. I reworded some of them. Mr. Papaya 20:17, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Explanation

There should be more explanation. Why did Nash go down? Was he just giving up? Tim Long 02:36, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Jesus Christ people its a goddam story line...hogan and nash planned that for a long time before the match...and nash laid down because his leader (hogan)told him to... it was a plan!! a plan! you people are writing things like nash really sold out or something...relax its a STORYLINE OF TWO MEN MAKING A DEVIOUS PLAN TO RISE TO THE TOP...end of story.

calm down put down any sharp objects he was only asking some pepole havnt watch wcw and wont know hes only saying it should be more of a explanation and please sign your posts Sailor cuteness 13:22, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ratings decline untrue

The part where it says that after the incident Nitro's ratings fell is very midleading. Nito had been struggling in the ratings since summer of 1998 and following WCW shows for at least the next few weeks did much better ratings than it had been doing in the weeks immediately leading up to the January 4th show.

[edit] Can we link the video?

I've found the video here. [1] Can we add it in a "External links" section? --151.38.18.125 14:11, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
