Is Bellator similar to WCW in the 90s...and UFC is WWE

[zxyss25]

UFC has always been more popular than Bellator...with its superstar power in Ronda, McGregor, Brock...as well as great talents like Jones, Cormier, Khabib, Nunes...as the UFC has gone through its attitude era

UFC also has a much more involved president in Dana White, whos very similar and outspoken like Vince McMahon...and definitely has his "favorite" fighters as well as the ones hes doesnt like.

But now we are seeing former past their prime UFC stars go the Bellator to try and have success there...Frank Mir, Rampage, Wanderlei, Chael Sonnen, Tito...along with a few still decent fighters Bader, Mouaasi, Rory, Machida

Similar to what WCW did with Hulk Hogan, Bret Hart, Roddy Piper, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, etc

WCW was way more popular than Bellator.

WCW was way more popular than Bellator.

They just need Conor there to form their own NWO and they are good

I was in my wrestling prime during the Nitro vs Raw wars on Monday nights. Bellator is nowhere near the level of WCW.

WCW was beating WWE before getting caught and finished

This is an awful comparison man, come on

 

[BitFlip]

Then what happened? Let's just hope they are not like WCW.

I enjoy Bellator, while WCW was what made me quit watching wrestling, couldn't get WWF on TV anymore... it was a sad time.

Very nice

Strikeforce was the closest thing to WCW.

Bellator is like TNA

 

[Draxton]

Nah. WCW was a lot closer to WWE(F) than Bellator is to UFC. Sometimes WCW was even ahead.

Bellator has a more ECW vibe. Small, popular, on the radar but not a threat.

Conor couldn't even make in WWEs watered down version of the NWO.


He'd be regulated to mid card appearances on Thunder

Bellator is more like late 00s TNA.

ECW despite being a small company had more of an impact on the business than Bellator ever will.

Lol. Yep. Going into the fifth I had it 10-9,10-9,10-9,8-10 WCW. WCW spent to much money going for the finish and gassed.

Truth. Paul Heyman owner of ECW manages a former UFC HW champ, Bork something or other.

UFC is Facebook. Pride is MySpace. Bellator is Tumblr trying to become the next Instagram.

Wrestling fans = retards and the dumb kids.

 

[LockardTheGOAT]

Bellator has a lot more in common with TNA/Impact Wrestling than it does WCW. WCW actually reigned supreme for awhile and had the WWF sweating, whereas TNA never has. They've always been the distant #2 promotion just like Bellator is.

WWF > WWE
