Reason Why WCW’s Planned NWO Nitro Show Was Scrapped

Kevin Nash revealed at River City Wrestling Con that WCW originally planned for the NWO to completely take over Monday Night Nitro, with the show becoming "NWO Nitro" with new graphics and everything, while Sting and DDP would lead a faction to take back the company. According to Nash, this plan was derailed by internal politics and pressure on Eric Bischoff from Turner executives. Nash also claimed that WCW's pay-per-view revenue was allocated to Turner Home Entertainment rather than back to WCW, which he says explains why the company appeared to be losing money despite its success.

AEW Seen as Ideal Landing Spot for Tommaso Ciampa After WWE Exit

Tommaso Ciampa has confirmed his WWE contract is ending after over a decade with the company, and Jim Ross believes AEW would be an ideal landing spot, calling him "a good worker" with "a lot of name recognition" who "can have great matches with anybody." However, Dave Meltzer reported in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that there is talk of Ciampa trying to get into New Japan Pro-Wrestling instead, noting that while he fits AEW's style, their crowded roster might make it harder for him to stand out. Ciampa is currently open to outside appearances, indie bookings, and acting gigs, and is trademarking "Psycho Killer" and "Psycho King" for a possible character reboot.
