WCW Capital Combat: Return of RoboCop is a unique blend of wrestling action and sci-fi. The atmosphere is charged with the kind of energy you’d expect from a live event, but then you also get this bizarre twist with RoboCop showing up. The pacing is typical of wrestling shows—matches interspersed with promos—yet the Steel Cage Match between Lex Luger and Ric Flair adds this intense drama. Practical effects take a backseat to the athleticism on display, but it's fun to see RoboCop interact with the wrestlers. The performances are over-the-top in that classic wrestling style, which can be a treat if you like that kind of theatricality. It’s a curious artifact from a time when cross-promotion was a wild idea.
This event has a certain rarity, as it was a product of its time when crossovers in wrestling were becoming more popular. It was released on VHS and has seen some DVD issues, though original copies can be somewhat hard to track down. Collector interest is there, especially among those who appreciate the quirky blend of wrestling and pop culture, making it a fascinating piece for anyone into niche wrestling memorabilia.
