10 Reasons why WCW lost the Monday Night War

<p>

#7 Being cruel and unfair to younger talent

<p>

With major stars like Hulk Hogan, Macho Man, and Sting demanding his attention and time, perhaps Eric Bischoff could be forgiven for losing mid card up and coming stars like Eddie Guerrero in the shuffle.

However, nothing excuses the way Eddie was treated by Bischoff when the future Latino Heat confronted the latter about his lack of a good storyline in the company. Eric Bischoff famously threw coffee on Guerrero and ordered him to leave the office.

The incident was turned into an angle, but not until many months after and Eddie had been demoted to being 'just a cruiserweight.' Eddie is just one of the men whom WCW disrespected during its heyday, which might explain why men like Dean Malenko and Chris Jericho left the company.
