Who Killed WCW? is an American documentary television series.^[1] The series premiered on Vice TV on June 6, 2024.^[2]

Synopsis

The series explores the downfall of World Championship Wrestling (WCW), interviewing various wrestlers, staff members and exploring the Monday Night War and the eventual demise and purchase by WWE.^[3]^[4]^[5]

The series features interviews with Dwayne Johnson, Bill Goldberg, Eric Bischoff, Bret Hart, Booker T, Konnan amongst others.^[6] Chris Jericho declined to appear based on his view that as the narrator for Dark Side of the Ring, he was too closely associated with the producers.^[7]

Reception

The series has criticism from a number of former WCW employees, including Tony Schiavone.^[8]^[9] Episodes 2 and 3 were criticised by Wrestling Observer Newsletter for poor fact-checking, lack of critique and a lack of pushback against narratives pushed by the featured talking heads. In particular, the narrative that WCW was ultimately driven down by Time-Warner management rather than poor internal decisions by WCW itself was criticised.^[10]^[11]^[12]
