WCW was all in on Roos in early 1990. They even had them advertised on the ring posts.

Anything that used the EEEEEEE midget as a spokesperson. His gimmick was that he would randomly burst out of something an average sized human could never fit in while screaming EEEEEEEEE, then deliver a monologue. I never knew his actual name. But for maybe a year, maybe a little less, in the late 90s he was in every other commercial. A phone company, I think it might've been Sprint, was using him as a spokesman when they were also a major WWF sponsor, and so we got to watch him pop out of a laundry tub screaming EEEEE, then slap a naked man on the ass and insult his genital size all while shilling a telecommunications company, over and over and over again. Panasonic, and I haven't found the commercials on YouTube yet.

I remember them plugging USA's other programming. Sometimes it could be done well, like in the early days when they would plug USA's original tv movies, and at the end, Heenan would make some wisecrack, but other times it was desperate. One time Todd Pettingill said that instead of switching to Monday Night Football when RAW was over, they should stay on USA and watch Silk Stalkings. "Coming up next on USA, it's La FEMME Nikita!!" Remember when Sunday Night Heat started and they had a crossover with Pacific Blue and Mario Lopez? I remember when Vince had a "phone conversation" with Cornfed from "Duckman" on Raw. I had no idea what was going on at the time, since we didn't get Duckman in Canada yet, and I think the Canadian station airing Raw censored any mention of the USA Network. I naturally assumed Cornfed and Duckman were new gimmicks coming in.
