5 of the best invasions in WWE history

#5 WCW Invasion

The Invasion in full force

This has to be on the list because of how important it was to WWE history, but in reality, it might be the least memorable item on this list just because of how it was booked.

WCW was out of business as Vince McMahon crushed his competition in the palm of his hands. But when the time came to snatch up all the WCW talent, they soon realised that most of the top names in WCW were still under contract with Turner Broadcasting, therefore, they were getting paid handsomely just to sit at home.

With names like Sting, Goldberg, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, and Hulk Hogan unavailable in 2001, WWE signed who they could. They were able to acquire some great talent but it just didn't feel like a true representation of WCW.

WCW still invaded with the surprise of Shane McMahon purchasing the company out from under him. But before Shane McMahon's shocking revelation, Vince McMahon still had the chance to fire Jeff Jarrett one more time.

The WCW Invasion might not have been as impressive as they would have hoped, so ECW was soon added into the picture as well to create a two vs one brand way battle for supremacy. But in the end, Vince McMahon and Company still came out on top.
