WCW gave alot of people exposure. People like Rey Mysterio, Billy Kidman (who had a much better career in WCW), Chris Benoit, Dean Malenko (who had a much better career in WCW), Booker T, Diamond Dallas Page, Chris Jericho (WCW got him on the map in my opinion), Lance Storm (WCW used him properly for a time). There's a few examples of people that were being used properly.
