ANSWER

what they said...

Who's get the idea to the name The Outsiders for Kevin Nash Scott Hall?

The person that created the idea was Eric Bischoff he signed Scott hall aka Razor Ramon and Kevin Nash aka Diesal and he named the stable for a while "the outsiders" because he wanted to show that those two superstars was from the WWF invading the WCW to give the WCW better ratings for nitro but its not true Hall and Nash was under contract with the WWF at the time they were under contract of WCW so they were offical WCW superstars they werent actual WWF invaders trying to start a war but people bought that idea so yeah i think that's a really good storyline from the WCW to get theyre ratings up.

What killed WCW?

The company was done long before Russo arrived. The last Monday night war they won was September 98 when Flair came back. 1 full year before Russo arrived. Russo tried to help the company. What killed the company was that they never made new stars. People loved Hogan, Goldberg, Nash and all of them at first but they got tired of it. People loved Austin, Rock and Foley to. But they added people to the list as they went on to give the product a fresh look and keep people interested. WCW never did that. They brought in new faces, but they stayed at the bottom. Now, that is what killed WCW's popularity. What really killed WCW altogether was that Turner Broadcasting terminated the Nitro and Thunder broadcasts. Eric Bischoff was set to buy the company but he had no place to air television and could not find a network to air it on either. (I personally think he didn't shop around enough.) Many people think McMahon killed it by buying it off but the truth is if he had not done that, WCW would just be sitting in a safe somewhere. At least Vince gave the majority of the wrestlers jobs and put's the WCW film library to good use on dvd's.

I agree with the comment on using the same stars helped to kill WCW. I recently watched the Monday Night War DVD and I have watched several shoot interviews on youtube. The merger of AOL/Time Warner was the biggest factor in killing WCW. The WWF was on USA and TNN (now Spike), they could get away with being racy and crude. On TNT, you couldn't do the same things with Time-Warner (think Bugs Bunny) as the parent company. When the AOL merger happened, Ted Turner was no longer in charge of his tv companies anymore. Eric Bischoff admits that he thought he would always have Ted Turner as he back-up. When he didn't, he was in major trouble because AOL/Time-Warner was looking at ratings and the bottom line. They didn't care about what had been done, they only cared how much money they were going to make. They were losing money. Big companies don't keep losing factions around. Gene Okerland takes virtually the same thing on a youtube video. Type in WCW shoot interviews and "the death of wcw" will appear.

Now, why is WCW just a memory and now an actual company or brand extension? As stated by the second respondant, WCW programming was cancelled by AOL/Time-Warner. Eric Bischoff lost his financial backing when it was cancelled. He was prepared to pay a lot more for WCW than Vince McMahon did. AOL/Time-Warner just wanted to get rid of WCW and the quickest way was to cancel the TV programming. Vince McMahon bought it with the plan to run it as a separate company. However, he was locked into his Viacom deal. He couldn't go to USA, he was on Spike at the time, and get a time slot for WCW on a rival network. He had to get something on a Viacom network. MTV had WWF Heat at the time and they received decent ratings so Viacom didn't want it changed. They did have a late night slot on Saturday night on Spike. They had the show that Mean Gene hosted which showed a lot of old matches. They planned to put WCW on at that time until they could get a better slot. Viacom wanted WWF products so the Mean Gene show stayed until cancelled. Their final option was the make Smackdown into a WCW show and UPN said no. By this time, the Invasion angle was getting ruined because, like the NWO angle in WCW, the WCW wrestlers were glorified jobbers as they were to the nWo when WCW still existed. The WCW and WWF angle eventually became the brand extension which is a watered down version of the original plan.

The 1st answer in the 2nd sentence is wrong. The last time NITRO won was in October 26, 1998, when NITRO aired a main event match from a PPV because thousands of WCW PPV viewers lost feed when the main event was on TV was shut down, almost 10 minutes before it was over. After that, WWF Raw began to dominate the ratings and PPV buyrates for two years and a half and the wars ended when WCW was bought by the WWF. Other than that, i agree with the first three answers up there.

What are the chances of sids happening twice to one parent?

The most recent report I read indicated that every re-evaluation of multiple SIDS deaths in families had turned up information that the deaths had other causes. This was a couple of years ago, but I haven't seen anything to refute that since. It didn't rule out the possibility of SIDS occurring more than once within a family, but suggested that they were probably either a result of genetic issues not previously discovered, or due to non-accidental events.

Is Kevin Rudd a NWO elite?

Yes, Kevin Rudd is a NWO elite. He advocated an Asian Union including Australia in early 2008 which is analogous to the European Union. (Other unions being proposed around the world are the North American Union, the South American Union and the African Union. These are all designed to divide the world up into homogenous, manageable sections so that the world can easily be ruled by the global government of this New World Order (NWO).) He is also advocating the fraud of carbon-driven 'climate change'.

There is no correlation between levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and temperature. Over the last ten years, carbon dioxide levels have increased, yet temperatures have fallen. In any case, carbon dioxide only accounts for less than 500 parts per million in the earth's atmosphere (ie. 0.05% or 5% of 1%). It is not present in large enough volumes to influence the climate. In short, carbon dioxide emissions are not causing global warming.

'Climate change', which used to be called 'global warming', is a fraud designed to extract maximum taxation revenue from the populace in order to disempower the populace and make it easier to set up a global government together with a world-wide police state. The line of reasoning will go like this, "All countries need to come together to tackle 'climate change'. So let's come together to tackle everything else (ie. establish global government)."

Fortunately, they're not going to succeed. Too many people already know that the whole thing is fraudulent.

Has Bret Hart recovered from his serious injuries from Goldberg and his bike accident and is he still able to wrestle?

In a recent interview with Wrestling Illustrated he said that he was out of it for good. He also had a bicycle crash where he hit his head against a curb and he wasn't wearing a helmet which resulted in a stroke.

Yes, he did have a crash. He got injured he lost feeling in his legs so he needed to get the feeling back.

Yes, only, and only if WWE will apologize for screwing him in `97. The WWE had no choice. He was going to go to WCW, but he wouldn't give up the belt to HBK. He was the only one Vince wanted to have the belt.

No, Bret had a stroke because of a kick he received from Goldberg that ended Bret's career leaving many serious problems. He does various Indy promotions and talks about his career in shoot interveiws.

I can dispute that he could return he wount be the first to come out of injury to wrestle again.

Bret Hart may return. If he does, he'll probably immedietly get hunted down by the legend killer Randy Orton. And if Orton's RKO is powerful enough, it'll probably give Hart a stroke and end up with Hart right out of action again. If Hart realizes that, he may go to wrestle in TNA, where Jimmy Hart is, and where he'll be more successful in my opinion.

BRET WILL COME BACK. MAYBE NOT TO WRESTLE, BUT IN THE HALL OF FAME INDUCTION CEREMONY. AND MAYBE SHAWN MICHAELS WILL BE ABLE TO COVINCE HIM FOR "ONE MORE MATCH"

No, he will not. Bret is now 48 years old. Kurt Angle wanted to wrestle him at Wrestle mania 20 and Hart said it would be an honor but he just can't do it anymore.

The kick to the head is not what did Bret in for good. While it ended his active wrestling career, Bret would have been much more likely to be able to wrestle "one more match" if it were not for the bicycle crash and subsequent stroke that left one side of his body paralyzed. Not many people realize the severity of what a stroke entails. Even more recently, on WWE's Byte This!, Bret said that he would absolutley love to wrestle Kurt Angle if he could have one more match, but that would be in a dream world, as he put it. The only person who knows if Bret could physically do one more match is Bret himself. While other wrestlers have came back from "career ending" injuries (HBK, Austin, Kurt Angle, etc,) a stroke is much more serious than a bad back or bad knees.
