Fans have been able to watch the first 15 minutes of the much-anticipated \'Who Killed WCW?\' show ahead of the docuseries\' premiere later today.
As the name suggests, the docuseries will dive deep into the rise and fall of the legendary wrestling promotion which was acquired by the WWF in early 2001. The new series is being produced by Dwayne \'The Rock\' Johnson and Dany Garcia who are working with Dark Side of the Ring creators Vice. The new documentary series will feature several names from the industry including many who worked in World Championship Wrestling.
Who Killed WCW? - The First 15 Minutes
Ahead of the premiere of the show tonight, VICE shared the first 15 minutes of the new series. This clip focused on two of the men most synonymous with WCW: Eric Bischoff and \'Hollywood\' Hulk Hogan. In the snippet, Eric Bischoff states that he had never heard of WCW before joining the company. This claim may be a stretch given Bischoff had spent years in the AWA prior to joining WCW and had established himself in the TV world. You can check out the clip below:
With this docuseries being about who is to blame for WCW\'s demise, there\'s no shortage of finger-pointing. Former WCW World Champion Bill Goldberg puts the blame on Vince Russo while Brad Siegel suggests that the wrestlers (and egos) are to blame for the company\'s collapse.
As this clip demonstrates, Who Killed WCW? will make for an interesting watch and offer a new perspective on the demise of the legendary promotion. And while it may not give a definitive answer, it\'ll certainly prove to be a captivating watch.
