Most of the WCW power plant products have been successful to an extent in spite of them being taken from the same template and uni-dimensional. A list of WCW power plant trainees below:

The Giant
Goldberg
Shane o Helms
Ernest Miller (though he found success after becoming the Cat)
Shannon Moore
Kevin Nash
DDP
Chuck Palumbo
Shark Boy
Johnny Stamboli
The Wall
Jimmy Yang
Stacy Kiebler
Debra
Torrie Wilson
Tygress

Would call WCW power plant a successful training school or failure for dishing out similar products which was in demand at that time.

Kevin Nash's Bio by Ross Davies who has done a bio for guys like Goldberg, Sting, Steiner, Andre the Giant, Buddy Rogers, Bruno Sammartino, Bret Hart, Bobo Bazil, the Funks etc clearly mentions that he was trained in power plant and absorbed into mainstream as Oz/Steel/Vinne Vegas by WCW. The powerplant was there as early as 1989 lead by Jody Hamilton; once WCW was officially formed in 1988.

Now, Was Power Plant a failure after creating so many successful wrestlers and a few stars like Nash, Goldberg, DDP and even a drop out Batista or a failure for bringing out wrestlers who were uni-dimensional working with mostly single set of moves unless they developed themselves like say DDP with all his variations to the cutter.
