10 Shocking WCW Vs WWE Moments That Almost Happened
3. Macho Man Randy Savage Almost Purchased WCW
WCW had been suffering so badly that Vince McMahon managed to pick it up for a pittance in the end. But one man did have the vision for what WCW could be and how much its assets could be worth. That man was Macho Man Randy Savage. "I was going to cut a check for that. I figured the WCW film library alone was worth that much money. I had a production company that was going to help me do wrap arounds, introduce all the matches, and send them overseas," Savage stated in a 2001 shoot interview. Can you imagine if Savage had managed to get that deal over the line? The WCW versus WWE war could still be raging today. Given how much McMahon hated Savage, that war really would have been something to behold. Instead, WWE picked up WCW for $3 million.
