I really wish I could watch NWA matches. I've only seen a few like Starrcade 85 on @Pliny Pete recommendation of TA vs Tully which is my 2nd fav cage match of all time (Angle/Benoit on Raw being #1)
They also did DDP dirty. And I hated the Austin/Angle switch over too.
Imagine Hogan, Flair, Goldberg, DDP and Sting vs Austin, Rock, Taker, HHH and Angle.
That would have been the greatest 5v5 match of all time on paper.
Invasion angle was rough. The minute you made Austin the boss, you knew there were going to be issues because you outright subordinate all the WCW guys to your big WWE star. But that's Vince for you, I guess.
It did lead to the birth of the "What?" gimmick though. Mixed blessing. Hilarious when Austin did it in the early days but horrific when it became a crowd thing.
