You only have to look at some of the more popular programming on the network to see this. WWE have created a series about the Monday Night Wars, JBL has had former WCW supremo Eric Bichoff on his 'Legends With' talk show, while countless WCW pay per views and Monday Night Nitros have been added to the back catalogue of the Network due to popular demand.

Heck, just look at the reaction Sting has received since making his WCW bow at Survivor Series 2014. He is Mr WCW, yet he has proved to be one of the more popular draws of the last two years.

Given the plight of the current product from the viewpoint of many mature members of the WWE Universe, they hark back to the late 90s and the Monday Night Wars as their stimulation for some of the stuff they are forced to sit through in 2016. You can't blame them, it's only the wrestling business at its most popular.
