Working on a long running save in my TEW game as JCP, later turning it into WCW, I've been doing this on and off for awhile now, using the 80s Risky Business mod (hope it gets back to being updated soon but some others seem to have done other 80s mods since).
I had split JCP from the NWA fairly early on, and changed the name to WCW. Thanks to the Horsemen's feuding with Dusty Rhodes and Magnum TA, as well as strong performances from Jake Roberts, Ricky Steamboat, and Randy Savage, I got WCW to Big over the years. Tully Blanchard, Roberts, and Savage have all jumped to the WWF, and Steamboat jumped to NJPW recently. Sting, Luger, Rick Rude, Kerry Von Erich, Scott Hall, Jim Duggan and Big Van Vader have stepped up to be solid upper-midcarders/occasional main eventers. I'm trying to build a light heavyweight division, I did steal Owen Hart and Dean Malenko from AJPW and Lanny Poffo from NJPW(Mainly as veteran help). I did steal Bret Hart and Bobby Heenan from WWF. So far I haven't found anyone that Heenan's got great chemistry with so maybe he moves into the commentators booth eventually. Hart's being introduced the same way Steamboat was introduced to NWA/WCW, only this time the Horsemen are picking on Owen Hart. Flair's going to be dropping the World Title to Bret at Wrestlewar.
The Road Warriors were big busts in WWF, regularly jobbing to Robert Fuller(as Tennessee Lee) and a partner of his choice. I stole them when I had the chance, and built them into the dominating team they were in real life. They spent most of 1988 as the WCW Tag Team Champions, before losing to Dusty Rhodes and Magnum TA at Bunkhouse Stampede. My only 100 of this save so far, in fact, was a six man tag on a late year WCW Saturday Night where Ric Flair teamed up with the Road Warriors to take on Sting, Dusty, and Magnum.
My biggest flop is Curt Hennig. I signed him from AWA to be a big part of the Horsemen, but he failed drug tests and wouldn't stop taking hard drugs even after a rehab trip. He kept saying that he can't shake the habit. His star quality's dropped big time and his stats have been going down, it might be time to let him go, sad to say.
