WWE have long had a habit of refusing to admit WCW were responsible for anything good. Perhaps for that very reason, Vince McMahon hasn't liked the idea of wrestlers who were successful in that company playing the same characters they did in WCW. When Diamond Dallas Page was signed in the fallout of WCW's demise, there was excitement regarding what he could do in the then-WWF. Sadly, the McMahon family had a terrible character in mind for DDP. In WCW, Page was a babyface who connected with the fans greatly. His charisma was instantly noticeable, and he had worked hard to become good in the ring. Instead of capitalising on his strengths, the WWF creative team forced DDP into a scenario whereby he was stalking The Undertaker's wife, Sara. This was not a fruitful character change for Page. He had taken a financial hit in order to be part of the company in the first place, agreeing to give up his lucrative deal with AOL/Time Warner. Enthused to be part of the WCW 'Invasion', DDP must have regretted the decision when he witnessed what role he'd play in the WWF. Right from the off, his new employers killed any momentum the guy had.
