Drew McIntyre- I thought this guy was "destined" to become a world champion this time last year... He was mr mcmahon's "chosen one" and everything. Long IC reign, thought as soon as he dropped it he would be pushed to the heavyweight title picture on smackdown. elimination chamber was the last big match he was part of. now he's on superstars.
Mr Kennedy (WWE)- Great gimmick, great crowd reaction as a heel or face. money in the bank winner, pushed to the moon, got injured, lost the briefcase, pissed people off upstairs, future endeavoured.
Billy Gunn- loved him in the new age outlaws, good look, good finishing move. won 1999 king of the ring, instant push feuding with the rock, then within 6 months he's tagging again. although when he had his singles push as a heel, HHH was beginning his dominance, as well undertaker being a top heel at the time aswell.
Umaga- came in beat everybody, even took legends like Ric Flair to make him unstoppable. if it wasn't for Super-Cena beating him not once but TWICE at TWO consecutive PPV's, he would have had a mark henry-esque run with the title. then bobby lashley/wrestlemania 23 came along, ruined his character as nobody could take him seriously as a monster heel. got beat by Jeff Hardy a few times aswell, lost to Batista at wrestlemania, then slowly went on a downward spiral. RIP
John Morrison- i smell future endeavoured for this guy. this time last year he beat sheamus at 2 consecutive PPV's, got a shot as The Miz, then stole the show at the Royal Rumble & Extreme Rules. injury didn't help, losing streak as soon as he came back didn't help. Just shows what happens when u piss off the wrong people!
Chris Masters- as soon as this guy debuted, i thought he was going to be a world champion. months after his arrival he got a feud with shawn michaels, then he was put in a couple of matches with cena for the title. he had the unbreakable master lock (which Lashley shouldn't have broke.) after the elimination chamber in 06, i thought him or carlito would have been challenging cena post-wrestlemania for the title, but no. then he got released, came back, and superstars'd it til he was released again. shame!
Bobby Lashley- built up as a monster face, athletic big man, beat big show in the extreme chamber to win the ecw title,beat umaga at wrestlemania, feuded with the mcmahons, traded to raw, became a wwe championship challenger, even faced john cena in one hell of a title match, then decided to disappear. good decision? not.
BIGGEST FLOP EVER:
Jack Swagger- How this guy cannot be considered a flop i don't know. the argument of the belt being put on him too soon is a joke. even if they had have had him with the briefcase for 6/7 months after he won it at WM, still nobody would have cared. his reign was terrible, nobody cared, not his fault that he couldn't get over, he wasn't really given the chance. now he's just a jobber for santino marella
