Exactly.....it's like the other day when we were all talking about Hogan's "friends" who were brought in with a lure of big money, buy they were so short sighted and didn't realize that as soon as they were fed to Hogan, their days were over. And the WWF was so big that it affected them in other territories with them being seen as clowns, roosters, fake black guys, etc... instead of their previous gimmick. Even Dusty Rhodes was NEVER the same after that polka dot shit in the WWF.....
I couldn't have said it better myself. But the one person to blame for this is Vince. He's the one. Notice even if you buy a dvd, for example the latest Hogan dvd. There is all this WWE stuff from 1979-1980,
only one match from the AWA against Bockwinkel, WWE stuff from 1984-1992 and again
only one match from the NWO in his very lucrative and successfull WCW stint. Why? Because Vince is a jealous turd who can't stand the thought of a guy being successfull in another promotion.
