This is a total let down if it’s just the Wcw stage, I mean the options for a figure from a Wcw only fund are not exciting me at all, booker T DDP and big poppa pump would be the only ones that I would buy if I seen on the shelf, they will probably give us the Steiner brothers which I don’t care about much, I’d rather have figures of them in their solo runs than Tag team, I really hope this includes the raw stage as well, if that’s the case it will be extremely expensive but I’m ok with that

I definitely think it’s a two in one. The wording of “taking you back to the Monday night wars” is the key. Can’t have a war with just WCW Nah I don't think it's a 2 in 1. He says the word explosive which makes me think its just going to be Nitro. As long as the cost isn't astronomical I'll likely be backing this. I'm hoping that it's gonna be under $400 USD/$550 CAD though. Anything more than that is gonna be tough. Also this is already going to be a big piece with a ton of tooling + figures. The cost of a 2 in 1 would be insane. I think $350-400 price point is realistic.

I wonder if they will do a WCW ring since I think WCW had slightly smaller rings than WWF

I’m definitely happy it could be the Nitro Stage. But why do the Nitro stage when we don’t have the Nitro ring? We have the Raw ring, the raw entrance stage made more sense here. Which again; I’m happy it’s the nitro stage; just sucks we don’t have a ring. So let’s hope they throw one out within the next year They could easily include ring aprons/turnbuckle covers to convert the Raw ring to Nitro. The Nitro ring had black posts at some point.

At some point they’ll add the Raw entrance stage too, no reason to have to use our raw ring to convert into a wcw ring. Like I said, they always tell us how our ideas and such don’t make sense or it’s a bad buisness decision, yet they do this lol. All I’m saying is, why do stuff backwards? If you were going to do a wcw Nitro stage, why not release the wcw ring instead of the raw ring? Makes zero sense

People suggesting that it's going to be a 2 in 1 I think are just projecting lol.

Makes zero sense It could very well be a 2-in-1 like people are saying, we'll just have to wait and see. I don't think they will feel the need to put another ring out, especially if the base is the same as the Raw ring.

How the hell could this be 2-in-1?! I'd be pretty shocked if they pulled that off. The two stage designs couldn't be more different except for some similar looking steel truss pieces. I don't see how they could make a single set that can be assembled differently to create either a RAW stage or a Nitro Stage. It just seems like it would really raise the price point. Tooling a stage is already a cost I can't fathom. Now they need to engineer it to snap together into a completely different design?
And then we have a whole new argument about what UEs does it come with. Now we've got a lot of people angry because we're are getting a UE Austin in jeans and a camo jacket and not a Scott Steiner. It'll make a lot of people feel slighted and just cause a ton of negativity towards the set.
I'd be willing to see and hear ideas but it just seems super far off from what I envisioned.

My guess is nwo bischoff, ddp, big poppa pump. Maybe ways to convert into nwo branding as stretch goal.

It didn't specify its just WCW. It says "Monday Night Wars" so some Attitude will defitnetly be included.
