10 Things You Learn Binge Watching Every WWE Raw From 2001

10. They Gave WCW No Chance

Pretty much everyone knows that WWE bungled the invasion angle. A sudden influx of incoming WCW and ECW talent oversaturated an already-heaving roster, and the lazy call to turn the thing into yet more McMahon family drama was a complete and utter stinker of a decision.

It all started so promisingly. No, wait, it didn't! No offence intended, but having lower-tier workers like Lance Storm and Hugh Morrus (both WCW midcarders) be the first ones to roll out on WWF TV in May/June was an almighty clanger that just didn't need to happen.

Booker T was waiting in the wings to debut at King Of The Ring, so the company should've held off until then. Instead, Storm put a shot across WWF bows by...attacking guys like Perry Saturn (who had only been in the fed for a year) and Steve Blackman.

Looking back, it's hard not to cringe for poor Lance. He made history, sure, but it was lower-key than it should've been.
