In my experience, UW has fewer, harder monsters that require great care to best (a trapper or two is invaluable here). Fissure has more monsters, they're easier to defeat but they move fast and have wide-ranging patrols, so you can quickly find yourself swamped with multiple mobs.
Either way, just go with people who know what they're doing and have done it before, or you'll be dead inside of a minute.

Of the two, Fissure is more similar to the rest of the game, and the strategies you used to complete the PvE are applicible there as well. The mobs are tough, but are of class compositions and use skill combinations that you should be familiar with. Well rounded groups are the norm, and if you play tight you shouldn't encounter any real problems.
Underworld is a completely different beast. Large swaths of the map are populated by extremely deadly, but very narrow mobs, and your success or failure here will depend heavily upon having the right counters for the various threats you'll see.
So if you just want to pop into one of the WaW maps with your character, Fissure is the way to go. Play Underworld when you're willing to put the time into figuring out the strategies needed to beat it.
