January 1st 2002

A video circulates a few TV Networks and the growing online world:

We see none other than the man who use to run WCW Eric Bischoff in a very nice office with a grin on his face

"March 26th 2001, the day that Vincent Kennedy McMahon finalized his deal to purchase his biggest rival WCW, a day that changed the industry forever.

In June 2001 things got intense as WCW and ECW came together to try and team up to take out WWF and beat Vince McMahon

November 2001 we saw winner take all, WWF taking down the Alliance and finally sitting atop the wrestling world all alone...

...Until now.

You see Vince McMahon in his arrogance believes he has destroyed the image of WCW to the point it is worthless, it is no longer a threat. So when I came to him with an offer to buy all the rights to the brand he saw it as easy money and agreed.

But this is NOT just some half hearted attempt to rekindle old magic, or to remember the old days... you see I now OWN WCW which means I do not have a boss, I am not limited by being told no by someone above me.

Yes, we will see some old WCW faces back that are able to still perform and do a job, but we will also be seeing faces who you may know from elsewhere that maybe just never quite got the opportunities they needed. And ofcourse we will be putting a LOT of attention into a developmental system to set the future of the business.

So starting this Thursday, January 3rd 2002, we will see the return of WCW Thunder... but with a new structure you see we are not shying away we are going right back to war... Nitro on Monday and Thunder on Thursday.

Nitro will feature our top stars, our World Champions, the biggest names we have, and Thunder will be strictly used as a showcase for our cruiserweight division. Now at anytime someone in the cruiserweight division can make the jump to compete on Nitro but they will be taking themselves out of the cruiserweight division.

Now I am not arrogant enough to run this entire ship solo, so my focus will be mainly on Nitro and I am bringing someone in to focus on Thunder and the Cruiserweight Division, a man you all know well and who I have an... interesting relationship with... Vince Russo!

Finally, ontop of being the owner, having no boss to answer to, both Nitro and Thunder will be airing on iNDEMAND, a video on demand service which... does not answer to the FCC and has NO television rating to abide by.

Thats right folks, Eric Bischoff is officially back with no restraints, no boss, and NO limitations!"
