Austin vs Mcmahon or WCW vs NWO?


What was better. If I could get a non-partisan opinion.

The NWO storyline was the turning point and the beginning of the greatest period in pro wrestling in recent memory. If Bischoff hadn't let his ego run rampant causing WCW to dump him and hire Vince Russo and Ed Ferrera than maybe WCW would still be around. God knows the WWE could use the conpetition.

yeah WCW vs NWO... and it also led to Austin VS McMahon, but both are the two greatest ideas in wrestling EVER.

Group VS Federation and Single VS Fed Owner are the two best angles, as they cause excitement.

Ten years ago I would say WCW v. NWO is the greatest storyline in wrestling. However, now I say Mcmahon vs. Austin.

Overall, McMahon v. Austin.

The WCW v. nWo was a far more original idea, but, like someone said before, it dragged on for waaay too long. The nWo just got ridiculous after half of the roster was a part of the nWo and then it started splitting into 45 different factions.

Overall I would say Austin vs McMahon cause of all the characters they drew in because of it...Mick Foley, The Rock, HHH. Think about it, when Austin joined "WCW/ECW" during the "Invasion" storyline...that was the ultimate, cause Austin was leading "WCW", Vince's hated rival promotion.
Besides, I never watched Nitro anyway so I don't know about WCW vs NWO

Of course that's only my opinion...and I could be wrong

Good thing you didn't watch it. The four horsemen were treated aweful during that time.

WCW vs NWO for sure.

NWO vs WCW was initially better, but after the mess that was Starrcade 1997 I lost faith in WCW. I still watched, but I was never as into as I had been. I could never really get into the WWF. It was either too kiddie or too raunchy for my taste.For a couple of years there WCW was just perfect.

the first year and a half of the NWO is IMO The Greatest storyline of all time, With Austin Vs McMahon 1A....Not #2...........1A...

Austin Vs McMahon is probably more enjoyable and May in fact be my favorite....But I cant ignore what The NWO story line did and accomplished.

Austin Vs McMahon from WrestleMania 14 through Bashlash 99 was for me my favorite thing Wrestling every produced.

buuuuuut first year and a half of The NWO story line is The most successful angle of all time

WCW vs NWO got old thats the problem. Austin vs McMahon never got old.
