Meh, looking back I think it turned out as good as it ever was going to be. It's crazy how empty of momentum WCW was by the end of its run. When they did the angle, they were pretty much relying on DDP and Booker to carry the brand.That wasn't possible when you consider what the other side had. And they couldn't sign guys like Goldberg and Sting who were pretty much getting paid tons of money to sit around for a year.

Eventually, guys like Goldberg, Hogan and Flair signed on but that came much later (obviously at a more reasonable price than if they had purchased their contracts during the buyout...). They could have waited a couple of years to do the angle, but at the time, they were sitting on a hot storyline that people were expecting to see. It would've been stupid for them to wait.

I wouldn't say it was terrible though. It just became apparent that the storyline wasn't meant to go longer than 9 months and people got kind of mad because it wasn't possible for WWF to give them what they wanted.

Take the resources that WWF had back then and try to formulate something better. It just isn't possible when your top names are Buff Bagwell and Billy Kidman.
