World Championship Wrestling once spent millions on a gimmick ripping off Mortal Kombat’s Sub-Zero, before Midway threatened to sue and WCW immediately gave up: 'We were gonna lose big, like real big'
World Championship Wrestling (WCW) spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on a wrestler named Glacier, whose gimmick heavily borrowed from Mortal Kombat's Sub-Zero. Midway, the publisher of Mortal Kombat, threatened a lawsuit, leading WCW to quickly alter the character's appearance and entrance. Despite the significant investment and the legal threat, the Glacier gimmick ultimately failed to gain traction and was eventually abandoned.
