March 2001 - Volume 1. The End of WCW - a podcast by Bob Bamber

In the first of three volumes for this most tumultuous of months, Erick Landstrom is joined by fellow former keepers of the WCW flame on this podcast - Bob Bamber and Rory McNamara - as they then watch it be extinguished for the final time.

 

They plot the course from the start of the month all the way until the still-shocking news of the company's demise being made official.

 

The final PPV - which could only ever be called 'Greed' - is reviewed by the team, as they also use some of its more positive moments to plot a course  as to where the company could have gone.

 

Vince McMahon and his pocket change are also discussed at great length, including whether the encouraging noises about full-scale WCW programming under the WWF banner are really just extended death throes.. 

 

The boys then sum up the last seven and a half years of covering WCW on this podcast channel..and wonder aloud what- if anything can be learned from it.

 

Thanks for the memories WCW. No, really. Thank YOU.

 

(Note: We recommend listening to these three shows in order!!)
