WCW World War 3 1996 - Live Discussion!

Vince gonna Vince, but 90% of Roman character and wrestling was nothing like Cena or I would have hated him.

Ehhh. Maybe a matter of perception. Because I definitely see strong similarities. But that's especially in the booking.

 

[Hoss]

But I think Roman for sure went through phases where they were trying to channel all of Cena, Rock and maybe even Hogan at times. But that's kinda just the WWE approach to top faces.

I found an AE show with a bad main event

Booking scenarios, sure. But Roman's actual character and Cena's character. The essence of how they pulled off their gimmicks, nothing alike.

Rock/Shamrock for the IC title is on the undercard, as is DX/Brood... that's all under D'Lo/Henry vs. Headbangers

 

[Chris]

A lot of the early '98 shows had atrocious main events but I will say in their defense the "main event" was usually an Austin segment. But oh many I bet the worst "main events" in history def take place around that time

I'd say Cena executed his gimmick better though as far as accomplishing the essence they were going for.

That's probably for pacing reasons and what might have happened after that match. It's also a tag title match and I like that belt maining some weeks.

 

[Leon TrotSky]

Okay, this looks like a LIT Raw

A one night IC title tournament

Sure, but the gimmick was awful.

Of course this one has a terrible main event, it's the Brawl for All final
