If I can be serious for a minute, I’d like to talk about how amazing Lance Storm was in WCW.

Lance was simply far better in World Championship Wrestling than he ever was in WWE or even ECW. He was funny, he was over and he was great in the ring. He came to the company in 2000, and received a big push out of the gate. He won the US Championship, the Cruiserweight Championship and Hardcore Championship in short order.

However, he wasn’t satisfied with those American sounding titles and renamed them the Canadian Heavyweight Championship, the 100 kg and Under Championship and the Saskatchewan Hardcore International Title. It was awesome.

Some of the best matches near the end of WCW were Storm vs. Booker T on TV. It's kind of bittersweet to watch them now, as those two could have been main-eventing pay-per-views for the promotion from 2001 to 2005, or even longer had the company stayed in existence.
