--As you read in the Nitro open, I've signed Bret Hart, who has a positive backstage influence and can play multiple roles. He will be the on-screen WCW commissioner. He can also be a great road agent and is available to play a colour commentator. The price comes at $15,000 per month. A hefty price but Bret will be a much-needed boost to morale and is instantly credible with fans.
--More importantly, this show put us over the top as we hit the more coveted Medium size. This will give us one more Nitro before The Great American Bash. I look to renegotiate some of the TV contracts.
