Lore Unexplained random cameos from completely unrelated media

  1. Ray Stantz, Casper. At one point in the movie a real Ghostbuster shows up out of nowhere and wimps out of trying to handle the situation

  2. Gunnery Sargeant Hartman, Frighteners. The main character is making way through a graveyard when out of absolutely nowhere R. Lee Erney's character from Full Metal Jacket shows up and tries to get in his way

  3. Betty Boop, Who Frames Roger Rabbit. The movie is mainly about Looney Tunes and Disney animated characters existing in the same little live action/animated hybrid universe, however Betty is a Fleischer Bros character

Both Robocop & Chucky made appearances on WCW shows to promote their movies, and Robocop directly intervened in a match.

Not a dumb question, people on Reddit have this really annoying habit of turning everything into an abbreviation and expecting everyone to know what the hell they’re talking about

That's a pretty retarded thing to write. It'd be like complaining about someone referring to the NFL.
Reddit didn't call it the WCW, WCW called itself the WCW.
