announcing that they have new writers...

I generally try to avoid the negative stuff and just shared positive things about WCW, since the internet has spent a quarter of a century acting as if it was only ever a big joke and playing up all of the mistakes... But I was re-watching the RTW series on yt and was reminded of one of the weirdest things they ever did. I know WCW '99 was already circling the drain hard, but when the commentators were on camera announcing that "we've got new writers coming to fix everything" in late '99 just before Shitstain and Fatass showed up... and then again months later, when they did the "reboot"... Beyond all of the stupid worked shoot crap Russo did, which was godawful as hell, but even before he got going they had Tony hop on camera and start talking about writers and creative and he might as well have just said "hey everyone this is all fake as hell, don't even bother trying to become invested in it". I never got that. A business that is about suspending disbelief, to come out on tv and brag about your new writers, how things will soon get better... They might as well have closed up shop in '99.

Annoying intern wannabe: "I will fix your sound problems!", G Mike: "Alex hates this guy, get rid of him"

I mean, could it be any more clear why the production never gets better? This is far from the first time she was against anyone coming in who might actually help improve things.
