BONUS: WCW Nitro, April 10, 2000 (The Reboot)

Eric Bischoff was sent home from WCW around August of 1999, leaving the ship without a definitive captain. Vince Russo showed up in WCW in October of 1999, right before Halloween Havoc, and was gone by January of 2000, right before Souled Out. It's now April and both Bischoff and Russo were brought back by WCW management to work together after the previous regime just wasn't cutting the mustard. What's the brilliant plan here? They're basically resetting the company, starting fresh with storylines and such, stripping all champions of their titles, and holding tournaments to crown new champions. It seemed like a dumb idea at the time and it turned out to be a dumb idea in execution. The partnership between Bischoff and Russo doesn't last and it all blows up in everyone's faces by the end of the summer, but for now, the Marks (Troy & Greg) are bringing you a review of what happened on the first week of this unholy alliance in World Championship Wrestling.
