I guess since he's not heard of by most we should ignore his passing. I don't consider every worker from the 60's to the 80's to be underrated. people like Ken Lucas, Don Greene, Jerry Kozak & Billy Robinson were fantastic workers. So they weren't known on a national scale? I guess them dying should be ignored. Ken Lucas was one of the most beloved faces in the 60's and 70's in the Gulf Coast territory. |

If he was hardly a no name job guy, and one of the most beloved faces of the 60's and 70's, then he wasn't underrated.

I just think he could've been a bigger star had he left the southeast/gulf coast territories. He was underrated when looking at the best babyface workers of all time.

Why does he need to spit out that bit at the end? I mean seriously? He couldn't finish off that one little gulp he had in his mouth? What a waste.

Don't think he swallowed a single gulp. Maybe he hates milk.

I like Sami Zane, but dude needs a better gimmick. So far all I'm getting from him (and his tights) is "I'm happy and I've wrestled all around the world!" Well that latter part bugs me. He may have been all around the world, but now he's wrestling in the same arena week after week after week after week. I know it's not his fault. It's how NXT is runs. It's one central location in the heart Death's waiting room (Florida).
At least let him talk about his travels more often. Let him brag about winning (possibly fictitious) titles in Cambodia and Madrid. Let him discuss how he wrestled all over the world, seeking out the best competitors. Let him do something more. As a worker I've loved this guy since I stumbled upon a Generico highlight video. When I heard WWE signed him I was STOKED (and slightly relived they didn't keep the Generico gimmick with the name "Lucha Joe") but now he's... He has all the right pieces. They're just not fitting together at the moment. |

Seems like shirt they'd give to him if he was still in NXT. Not the shirt that a future World Champion deserves.

And now, in no real order...
10 people who should have made it bigger in the WWF/E *Now with half assed explanations* 10- Vader This dude was a legit monster, who many feel was held down by backstage politics. He was over as hell everywhere else he went. Perhaps he was given an unfair shake, or maybe it's a case of "you can't win 'em all." The man they call Vader should have been the man they call WWF World Heavy Weight Champion at least once. 9- Brutus Beefcake While he wasn't a total jobber, you'd think the guy who carries Hulk Hogan's bags would have gotten a little more spotlight than just Hogan's sidekick. I mean, come on. He was Hogan's lapdog everywhere he went. Let's jump into WCW where he followed him. He was a prat of the nWo, and the man who "infiltrated" the Dungeon of Doom. I wouldn't be surprised if he lives Hulk Hogan's basement surrounded by boxes upon boxes of failed Hulk Hogan merchandise. 8- Marc Mero This man was adept to many wrestling styles. He could be on the bigger side of a high flyer, the smaller side of a brawler, very exciting, could play a great face and a terrible heel. I feel his run got overshadowed by Sable. 7- Chris Candido Not "Skip of the Bodydonnas", but Chris Candido. His gimmick was toxic (at least Mero had it better in the gimmick department), and ended up with him being managed by some random (alleged) transvestite. Kinda like Mero, he got out preformed by a beautiful woman. Honorable mentions of a great wrestler ruined by a gimmick- Shane Douglas, Matt Bourne 6- Kenny Dykstra The main mouth piece of the spirit squad could have been bigger than just a male cheerleader turned into a total nobody. This is just a tragic case of a young kid with everything to prove in front of a fan base that wants everything delivered to them on a silver platter. 5- Rene Dupree If there's one group the Canadians can make fun of, it's the French Canadians. Why? Everyone hates the French. He played a great arrogant heel. This man could have been a place holder champion to pass the World title from one face to the next. While I never saw him as a solid main event player, he could have been compared to The Mountie. Honorable mention for "Foreign Bad Guy who could have been bigger"- Kenzo Suzuki. 4- Paul Burchill and Katie Lea Take the border line incest out of it, and Paul Burchill and Katie Lea could have been amazing. There was great chemistry between them (if you ignored the fact that they were meant to be siblings). That duo could have used each other to get what they want. They both looked good, they talked good, but I feel they didn't get the right exposure. Paul was an English man, then a pirate, and then someone who might be having sex with his sister... One of these things is not like the other... 3- Drew McIntyre 3MB.... 'nuff said. Honorable Mention- Jinder Mahal 2- Haku Aside from the sporadic fandom he gets from the people, right here, on tpww.net *#CheapPop* that dude was legit tough. I'm not saying he had "it" to be in the main event scene for a long period of time, but he could have been an awesome body guard, gun for hire, or corporate goon. Would have loved to see Haku vs Ken Shamrock in the attitude era. 1- Eric Bischoff He didn't have to take bumps. He didn't have to wrestle. All he had to do was talk. I'm fairly sure he was given his run until Vince felt he was done with him. As a figure head, and a mouth piece, I still feels he has a LOT to offer to the industry. On the creative side he's a bit of an ego-maniacal douche, and perhaps not the best person to do business with, but as a persona, he still has what it takes. Did he have a good run in WWE? Yea, of course he did. Hell, most of the people I mentioned had a good run (and possibly as fair of a chance as time and circumstance could have given them). There could have been more from all of these guys if they were given the right chances, and avoided bad luck. |
