WCW Network Negotiations

WCW and Multiple TV Networks are rumoured to be in talks after this past Monday's WCW Nitro topped a target set by the USA Network of 10.00. Beating it by a further 10%, networks as said to be high on adding WCW to their portfolio as the company continues to rebuild and regroup it's fanbase and it's product. Many insiders are questioning the addition of another show to the weekly calendar, stating “They need to focus on Nitro and worry about the rest when it's fully rebuilt”. While others are firmly behind the idea stating “If WWF has 4 shows and WCW only has one, it looks the inferior company, they need the extra TV time to not just increase the bottom line, but increase the public opinion”.

Nothing has yet been set in stone, but insiders are stating it could be a few weeks or a few days, but networks have now opened their doors.
