DragonKing Dark: The death of WCW
Continuing our 100 darkest moments in pop culture history, I return to the world of sports entertainment (pro wrestling) to find out how one company became the most profitable and successful wrestling company in the world and then sank over half of genre with it.
The death of WCW is an amazing account of how to literally run off half of the entire fanbase of a very popular pop culture genre with a bad product.
Comic book companies, please take notes.
