We Are NXT!
I mean did they really get away with it?
In the end that gimmick was a failure, WCW ended and MK still going strong.

It's a parody. His gear didn't exactly rip off MK.

Everyone in that angle BUT Glacier went on to do better things.I saw these on the Network when running back 96 Nitros
WCW hyped the shyt out of his debut and proceeded to do jack shyt with him
The Cat Ernest Miller, Wrath (who was over as hell with his own undefeated streak before Nash squashed him... then got over again as a part of Kronik before WWE squashed them after the buyout), Kanyon, and James Mitchell.
Glacier became Coach Buzz Stern.

Does anyone remember that Glacier was one of the unlockable characters on WCW/nWo: World Tour? What a rip off. You go through all of that effort for that?!?
Supposedly, there was an internal audit and something like 300g was unaccounted for. Bischoff said it was money used for a new wrestler gimmick and entrance. The light show, fog machine, costume, etc. That's how he stole the Glacier gimmick on the spot, trying to save his own ass
It was supposed to go to RVD, but rob turned it down.
The gimmick failed bc they hired a legit karate dude, thinking hes gonna do flippy shyt, but he was bland af He also couldn't wrestle with the mask on .

Yep and Liu Kang = Bruce LeeMortal Kombat blatantly ripped off Big Trouble in Little China for Raiden and admitted Jean Claude Van Dam was Johnny Cage
As a matter of fact, the movie was pretty much Enter The Dragon

Bishoff Said RVD Was Never Discussed And The Character Was Pretty Much Made To Shill Off Merchandise To Kids, They Thought Glacier Toys Were Gonna Be Flying Off The Shelf LoL
You need to chill out on the Glacier slander
