WCW Winning Percentages by Year (1989-2001)

Information was collected from CageMatch for "World Championship Wrestling".  The results filled in some gaps that I had in my WCW data (particularly TV taping) but I think this exercise was not nearly as complete as the WWF version that I posted a few days ago (and also appeared on reddit and Voices of Wrestling).


(To be included on this chart, a wrestler needed at least 30 non-rumble matches in a single year.  Someone like Kevin Nash was active in 1997, but this dataset only had 28 matches for them that year.)

Lowest Standard Deviations: Paul Orndorff, Meng, Psychosis, Chris Kanyon, Norman Smiley
Highest Standard Deviations: Lex Luger, Bobby Eaton, DDP, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Tom Zenk (Z-Man), The Giant

  • Luger was riding high from 1989-1998 (with a detour to WBF/WWF in the middle there), but his winning percentage really took a tumble during the dying years of WCW.
  • Bobby Eaton was all over the map depending on whether he was a focal tag team (ala 1989/1991) or a utility player (1994-1996).
  • DDP built his reputation up to it's zenith in 1996-1998 but his winning percentage slipped  in the final years.
  • Kevin Nash's early days with the company under ridiculous gimmicks (Oz, Master Blaster Steele, Vinnie Vegas) did him little favors, but his powerful return in 1996 as one-half of the Outsiders was a remarkable change for the win column.
  • Likewise, when Big Sexy's running mate Scott Hall transformed from the Diamond Studd to his own name as one-half of the invading New World Order as represented a high-water mark for the former Razor Ramon's victory totals.
  • As with many territories, when someone was on their way out of a company, they went from favored nation status to jobber to the stars.  Tom Zenk exemplified this with his plummeting record from 1991-1993 as did The Giant Paul Wight from 1996-1998.
  • Meanwhile, one-half of the Faces of Fear Meng (Haku!) won about two-thirds of his matches from 1996-1999. That seems to be the magic percentage since Screamin' Norman (Norman Smiley) also had a very similar record during his 1998-2001 reign.  
  • Paul Orndorff's shower shoes were slightly below parity during his 1993-1995 adventure. Sadly, his second run with WCW was cut short when his body broke down during the ill-fated Buffalo PPV.
  • A terribly underutilized star, Psychosis lost more than he won during his horned 1997-1999 adventures.
  • A man at work, a worker at heart, and not lot of winner's purses exemplified Chris Kanyon's (Positively Kanyon, Mortis) 1998-2001 crusade through WCW.
