Wasteland? Yeah, nevermind that they were actually doing good, and at the moment still are, unlike WWE, but shhh, we'll ignore that cause you know, only WWE matters.
Still not getting what you're asking, but all the guys brought over for the InVasion Angle were promptly buried by WWE to show that WCW was on threat when they could've brought over the bigger name guys.
Oh, and the few big names they did bring in like DDP and Booker T? Buried.
