[4.0] "It seemed to me, like this promotion tried too much to be like WCW 2000. Weird finishes and overbooked matches were the norm in the WWA. Also, Vince Russo was supposed to be in charge of creative, coincidentally. Former WCW mainstays, like Sting, Scott Steiner and Jeff Jarrett were a few of the World Champions of the promotion. Yeah, this is EXACTLY like WCW c. 1999-2000."

[3.0] "In the wake of the near-simultaneous closures of WCW and ECW in 2001, there was a void left where a number of companies vied to rise as viable alternatives to the WWF/E monopoly. For every TNA and ROH that rose to prominence, there were other promotions that would be left by the wayside, and that was the case with WWA. Though an Australian company, WWA's roster primarily consisted of free agents from WCW and ECW that hadn't signed with the WWF, as well as ex-WWF guys, and its presentation came off mainly as trying to pick up where WCW left off. It provided some good matches and its undercard had a number of future stars represented who would soon help put TNA and ROH on the map (including AJ Styles and Low Ki). Ultimately it didn't do enough to establish itself as an alternative product to either the WWF machine or to its predecessor promotions, suffered from an inconsistent touring schedule and failed after only five televised pay-per-view events, but it served as an interesting transitional point between the pre-2001 wrestling scene and the one we know today."

[1.0] "Also die WWA war wohl nix, man setzte zum Teil zwar auf talentierte Leute, aber in den wichtigen Matches standen nur abgehalferte wCw Leute."

[4.0] "Die WWA konnte World Championship Wrestling nicht im Ansatz ersetzen. Wer kommt auf die Idee "Banana in Pyjama #1 und #2" am Turnier um den Heavyweight Title teilnehmen zu lassen?"
