I just got to looking through the rosters of both versions of the game for some reason and for some reason Flair is only in the PS1 version. This is very confusing to me.

I pretty sure it had something to do with the lawsuit with Eric Bischoff/WCW and Flair.

He wasn't in Thunder's main roster for PS1 either. Secret Character.

Side bar: I feel for the kid who had an N64 and wanted a WCW game and got Nitro when World Tour and Revenge were available.

Anyway, Flair actually was back in WCW when Revenge was released, but the game was all but finished by the time he returned and it was too late to add him.

And they seemingly gave Hogan what would have been Flairs finish in Revenge. |

I remember once in stores seeing an "Official Strategy Guide for WCW Nitro on the N64." Surprisingly, it wasn't just a series of pages with "Don't play this game" repeated. |

When revenge came out my parents surprised with an n64 & revenge as a early christmas present.Then on christmas they got me Ocarina of Time,Goldeneye,South Park and NHL.Then they had one gift left and said we got you another wrestling game.I figured it was world tour but it was nitro.Christmas was officially ruined. |
