I cannot vouch for the BPR or the BRB (Big R Bang), but I can tell you that the WCR is the most powerful reactive I have thrown.  If you have any kind of hand at all, it may be too much ball.  The WCR is perfect for me because I have a fairly weak shot and it really reacts strong on a house shot.

I've had BRB, but sold - too much backend (~500 rpm).
Now i miss that type of ball when my hornet is too weak and C300 messenger ti traction too much (early rolling).

I've had/have all three with similar drillings the Big Bang/R for me was a little to "Squirty", the Black Pearl-Reactive and World Class-Reactive are much more consistant in my home area.

Personally I prefer the Black Pearl Reactive, I own 3(1 drilled pin above rf and 1 drilled pin rt of rf), the 3rd will get drilled pin below when I decide to drill it.

Near as I can tell, the BPR is slightly longer, slightly flippier and handles slightly more oil. The WCR is discontinued and the BPR can be regarded and was probably designed as its replacement. As such, it is a little more of everythng the WCR is, including more flare (higher RG differential).

If you have 500 rpms, I'd suggest the WCR if you have access to a new one. The WCR has a large rolly core, but together with the WCR coverstock, it still gets good length and a very good backend. The cover has never been defined as pearl or solid, so it's probably a mix. The BPR is a pearl, but it's a Lanemasters pearl!
