Goldberg tears through the nWo until its down to Nash and Hogan, end it with a triple threat or something, Goldberg wins and gets the title back.
I would also cancel Thunder.

They killed so much with that. The finger point itself wasn't bad, DX did the same thing about 13 months earlier and it worked great.
The problem was it killed the natural evolution of nWo to simply reset it to a lesser version. The nWo jobber team of like Virgil and Stevie Ray just hurt the mystique that they were trying to recapture with the big swerve.
Babyface nWo Wolfpack vs Heel nWo Hollywood should have kept them going strong for at least another year. It would have also allowed WCW guys to be real faces and heels again while not having to be in one of the nWo factions.
Goldberg was hurt not just by losing, but how badly he was booked with the whole Miss Elizabeth rape angle.
And the follow-up was horrible. I can't even remember what happened after that other than Hogan wore nWo gear that had red and white in it. There was like nothing that happened between then and when Bischoff got sent home and Russo came in and destroyed everything.
