1. Ric Flair Debuts The Night After The Invasion Ends (November 19, 2001)
No less than 24 hours after the storyline version of World Championship Wrestling had ceased to be, one of the group's top stars appeared on Raw. 'Nature Boy' Ric Flair agreed terms with the WWF, but it was a little late in the day to save the idea of the 'Invasion'. In later months and years, everyone from the nWo and Scott Steiner, to Bill Goldberg and Sting would sign with the promotion. It was definitely a case of being too little, too late. The WWF could have really done with those stars to make the top angle of 2001 more credible.
