We show that the associated production {ital pp}{r_arrow}{ital W}{prime}{ital W} and the rare dec at future hadron colliders. For {ital M}{sub {ital W}{prime}}{similar_to}(1--3) TeV they would allow a clean determination on whether the {ital W}{prime} couples to {ital V}{minus}{ital A} or {ital V}+{ital A} currents. As an illustration a model in which the {ital W}{prime}{sup {plus_minus}} couples only to {ital V}{minus}{ital A} currents is contrasted with the left-right-symmetric models which involve {ital V}+{ital A} currents.
