    I was a huge fan of all these talented guys individually and the faction. I paid $100 for the only Revolution shirt I could find off of eBay just to give it to Shane Douglas at one of the shows I worked with him. I spend hours talking with him at several shows - listening and learning to one of my idol's growing up. Shane explained he lost all his old gear and memorabilia over years through a divorce. And how he knows it's just stuff, but he wishes now he still had some for memories. When I brought him the Revolution shirt He said he would sign it and give it back to me, but I explained he's given me enough years as a fan and I hope this is giving back to you in a small way. He was very gracious and thanked me and told me some cool road stories with Perry, Chris, & Dean. Thanks for this video.

      benzion888 😂 WCW Owned WWF in the Monday night WARS. Try again, Austin was a product of WCW before crossing over to WWF so therefore Austin had experience in the business. Rock couldn’t wrestling himself out a paper bag. The Rock’s gimmick saved his career in which was stolen in bit and pieces from some WCW characters. WCW lost because of poor management other than that WCW was killing the WWF.

    I never really watched WCW, I'm interested in this primarily as a prelude to the Radicals coming into WWF.
    Also, the absurdly convoluted stipulations in WCW matches were always hilarious, and incidentally are one of the reasons I didn't watch very often. The Cones of Dunshire rules are more clear than some of those WCW stipulations.

    I've always thought that Shane Douglass was a much bigger star in his own mind than he was in reality. He seems to come across as thinkin the reason he didn't become a legend was cause others held him back. Maybe that's true to a small extent, but a very, very small extent. I've always believed he was the main reason he didn't make it to the top.

    Shane returning to wwe a 2nd time after leaving ECW a 2nd time was a slim chance in & of itself. It's surprising to hear they allegedly gave him another shot. It would have been his 3rd with wwe & 2nd with wcw. Only Warrior probably burned more bridges at that time with the co. than Shane did. The issues between him & Vince, paired with Paul & Shawn probably saying no to Shane's return would have ended that stint quickly. The "Radicalz" faired better in the wwe than wcw, but they were still under used. Only Chris & Eddie ascended, but all 4 deserved to be revered. If you're painted with wcw colors.....
