Reading WCW 2000 recaps on the Blog of Doom a reoccurring issue is that Vince Russo has the attention span of a five-year old on speed. Nothing gets a chance to breath. Rush rush rush. Pack a month of storylines into one episode.
So here's an idea: take the roster from the Great Reset (or even from when Russo started in 1999). Use as many of the storylines and plot points Russo used. Even the swerves. (Okay, maybe not the dumbest ones.) But slow down the pace to normal. Use the extra time for longer matches.

I can relate to the whole attention span of a five-year old on speed... Not that I'm five nor am I on speed but if you actually go back and look at the results of my circuit you can see some seriously messed up stuff that goes on. At times I want to use real wrestlers so I make the change, do the title matches to have them kick over and sometimes the title matches take two cards or so before they kick because I don't book finishes. Then after two cards or so I'll say "nope want to go back to fictional people" want to create my own people my own universe so heading back to that direction.
Or I'll get the idea of getting invaded by England, so I run it, it lasts two cards and if I had the actual story still posted that played out after them taking all the gold, they left it all in the ring and vanished into the night.
I then had the idea of doing Japanese wrestlers because I had a few ideas, and I was kind of bored with the typical American/Canadian wrestlers and was playing a console game that allowed me to look into the Japanese wrestling, so then I created a faction: NKPW had these ideas I was going to do and.... NOPE only lasted one or two cards and after that a complete refresh.
I have the hardest time letting things play out, cause for me, I'll go from being swamped with ideas to having none, then I'll have the idea of just wanting to take a break because I feel exhausted from it. I was even going to create a completely different circuit and have it run and see if I could keep things actually normal and have them take over KWOAOA and retire KWOAOA because everything is so messed up, I haven't done it... Yet... or maybe I won't do it.
Sorry, didn't mean to take the thread off-topic, but I have seen the line of: "attention of five-year old on speed" and it kind of sounds like me with KWOAOA, not just running it but the website as well. At times, I'll change it up to blog style, at other times it's the old school look of an actual website.

I can relate to the whole attention span of a five-year old on speed Hmmmm: short attention span, creativity with a lot of peaks and valleys, constantly pinballing between lots of different ideas. Have you ever considered whether you might have ADHD?

Have you ever considered whether you might have ADHD? Back when I was in school they claimed I had ADD before it got the HD upgrade. All jokes aside, without me getting into a long ass post. It's multiple things that cause those feelings/thoughts with me. It's a day to day struggle at times. I have my good days and bad days with it.
