Getting Noticed By Management
Having being reading a lot recently about superstras like Hawkins, Kidd,Baretta and Brodus, who people feel have potential which is going to waste. It got me wondering who has had the most potential squandered by the WWE and peoples thoughts on this.
For the record mines would either be:
Goldust- Ok i know he had a decent mid card run during the attitude era but still the guys great on the mic, good in the ring and an intriguing character who knows how to get a good crowd response and who people seem to legitmately care about in spite of his long absence. His run as tag champion along with Booker T years ago was brilliant and produced some of the most interesting segments of the time. Im hoping he will get his match with Cody at mania for the Ic belt but I'm not holding my breath.
Carlito- He was in the upper mid-card for a long while but I would have loved to have seen him pushed and given the title for a bit. He was very charismatic, exciting in the ring and his heel work in his first reign as US champion, particularly the Cena fued was excellent. He was also proven to be able to connect as face given the great crowd response he was getting during his face run towards the end of his time in the company and his ability to adapt his moveset accordingly. I feel given the chance he could have been a very good champion.
London and Kendrick- This is a tag team I know but they could have been used so much better. They were a young exciting and relevant team and really could have been used to rebuild the prestige of the division. You just have to look at the work they have put in in the X-Divion on TNA to realise they had more to offer.
Elijah Burke- I thought he was excellent in his run in ECW leading the New Breed and was one of the only things that made the show watchable. The fact that he done nothing after that always seemed a bit of a waste to me.
D-Lo Brown- He was cool, charismatic and made the European title feel important. Shame how the Droz incident killed what could have been a memoreable career as I believe he would have made a great Ic champ.
Lastly Ken Shamrock, I know he was over and given a good upper mid card run but I really liked him. His character was edgy and came across as lgitimately tough and unforgiving. Would love to have seen him given a run with the WWE title but I suppose the main event scene was so crowded back then with phenomenal talent he was just crowded out.
