You know what, I never understood why this got so much hate. From a pure storyline perspective I thought it was very good, and it was a great swerve. It really set the tone for the nWo to become a horrid heel faction that has no respect for WCW or Wrestling for that matter. It just was unfortunate that Goldberg got injured.
But I thought it was a good angle. I really think WCW was doomed post arquette, and even then they were doing a lot of good things. As much as I like to say, WCW was never really making that much money. It was never the product that caused the death of WCW, it was the merger.
