10 Things Wrestling Fans Found Too Distracting

6. WCW's Endless Run-Ins

As much as this writer dearly misses WCW's silliness, he definitely doesn't miss the endless number of interference-laden matches the promotion ran on TV and pay-per-view. It kinda' became a running joke back in the late-90s to see this play out constantly.

WCW weren't the only company who relied on non-finishes, obviously (the WWF did it too), but they did take things to a whole new level. Even Eric Bischoff admitted on his '83 Weeks' podcast one time that the group were undeniably poor when it came to booking finishes.

Bisch didn't shy away from self-criticism either - he admits he didn't put enough emphasis on the importance of a solid match finish or two per card. By 2000, fans had been conditioned to expect that most bouts on Nitro or Thunder wouldn't end until someone sprinted from the back to cause a disqualification or cheap pin.

Rinse and repeat booking made it hard to care about what was happening.
