10 Reasons why WCW lost the Monday Night War

#10 Refusing to let the NWO go

<p>

The nWo was one of the most innovative and exciting stables and storylines in wrestling history. It changed the landscape of the industry and led to WCW briefly reigning as the top pro wrestling company in the world.

However, it also overstayed its welcome by many years. The nWo should have really ended in 1997 when Sting finally faced Hogan for the world title. But that did not happen. The angle dragged on and on, with the nWo undergoing many mutations, including the babyface Wolfpack variant.

If WCW had tried something new and creative, they may have staved off their own destruction. Instead, they just kept going to the well too often, and it came up dry.

What do you think brought about WCW's collapse? Please comment below and thanks for reading!
