Didn't Kevin Nash have a better run in his NWO run than his initial WWF run? Maybe because he had the pencil. But I wou say no. His matches were sloppy and I thought his work rate was worse. IMO But what about Scott Hall's working punch? Damn that thing is a  ing beauty Oh yeah. Hall might have the best worked punch ever. |

I am surprised nobody mentioned the Steiner Brother's. The WWF didn't know what to do with them. However, WCW knew how to use them.

I can't believe I forgot to mention Barry Windham!
Barry in the WWE had 2 tag titles, but in WCW he had much more than that.

Yeah the Steiners are a good shout.....although had they behaved themselves?they were set to regain the taggers from The Quebecers @ WMX.
Bischoff offered them a fat contract to return and according to Bret Hart they did everything they could to be released so they could go back....BUT they didn't resurface til 96 in WCW......

Dean Malenko
Rey Mysterio Jr (though once he became unmasked, to me his career was basically over... he's sucked since then. I treasure his early days from like 96-early 98)
Perry Saturn
Goldberg (nothing he did in WWE remotely compares to his undefeated run in WCW)
Chris Jericho (TBH after his first year or so in WWE, I didn't enjoy him all of the time. He looked unmotivated and often had really slow matches)
Scott Hall
Kevin Nash (mostly because his best WWF stuff as during his title reign, and he's a much better heel than he is a babyface... and even moreso than that, he's a brilliant tag team wrestler)
DDP
The Steiners
The Giant
Meng
Kidman
Wrath/Bryan Clarke
Lex Luger

Barry Windham is another. Great NWA/wCw runs mediocre WWE runs.

Surprised I haven't seen Rick Rude (unless I overlooked him) mentioned yet. Very good WWF run, including a main event program with Ultimate Warrior, but his WCW tenure was even better. Main eventer pretty much the entire time, including being the lead wrestler in a great stable, a World Title run, and great feuds with guys like Steamboat, Flair and Sting that produced better matches than he had in WWF.

Raven... Yeah, he was an ECW guy through and through really, but much better used in WCW than the criminally short and underutilized run in WWE. I'd fully agree! massive raven fan, his wwf hardcore run was fun, but his best work was in ecw followed by his early tna run. |

Vader, DDP, Lex Luger, Dean Malenko, Buff Bagwell, Shane Douglas, Ricky Steamboat, all had better WCW careers than WWE ones. Guys like Ric Flair, Booker T, Golberg, Chris Benoit, and Lance Storm were pretty even in both WWE and WCW. Both did as much in each federation, and were pushed to the best of their abilities in both federations. I don't agree with Booker and Lance. Booker was a force in the WCW tag team and midcard for years and then received a huge main event push in '00. In the WWE he started as a jobber to the top guys and eventually moved to jobber of the midcard until finally getting one world title reign with a lame gimmick. Lance was a triple champ at one point in WCW and was pretty over with casual fans and the IWC. In the WWE he had a quick transitional IC Title reign and then did absolutely nothing for the next 3 years. He is more known for the stupid "boring" chants started by Austin than anything else he did in the WWE. |
