WWE 2K17: 10 Reasons It Needs WCW Mode
6. WCW Deserves To Be Acknowledged
Many look back at ECW as the catalyst of the Attitude Era and wrestling's most successful period.
Vince McMahon saw the traction that Paul Heyman was achieving on a much smaller scale in Philadelphia and jumped on that bandwagon. He then used what ECW was doing to keep WWE in touch with late 1990s popular culture and the need for more risky content on television.
However, Heyman never had the budget to truly threaten WWE, while his product was simply too strong for a mainstream audience. WCW however had that firepower and a prime time slot on TNT.
WCW was the brand that pushed WWE to extreme lengths and created the best period in wrestling history.
Even though WWE hark back to this era far too many times these days, we've never really seen a sole WCW perspective dealt with before. Maybe it's time now as part of WWE 2K17?
