Time To Dispell The Myth That The WWE Did Anything For The Radicalz

[Wacky D]

the radicals came in and jobbed to an inferior DX.

chris benoit was WCW champion for pete's sake. it took him & eddie 4 years to win world titles ONE TIME in the WWE.

they made malenko look silly and killed off saturn's career.

outside of giving eddie a character to run with, the WWF really did nothing for the radicalz.

I think at that time, if Kidman was in the radicalz, he would’ve had a better WWE career than Saturn and Malenko.

 

[Womb Raider]

No reason why Malenko and Saturn were treated the way they were

Benoit was only WCW Champion because the whole card got wrecked in the week before and it was a last ditch effort to get him to not to leave. Otherwise they had him for 5 years and put the belt on literally on his last fukking night Before about 3 days before the show, he was going to be jobbing to Jeff Jarrett.

Damn shame what they did to the shooter/ice man

 

[Jim Cornette]

Radicals were boring midgets apart from Eddie

 

[Carl Tethers]

Saturn screwed himself by being a prick and taking liberties with Mike Bell

Malenko's high-workrate didn't gel with WWE's in-ring product at the time, sadly. His creep ladies man gimmick was to me though.. fukk it

Benoit got some shine but losing to The Rock all the time (and to his WOAT Sharpshooter) made him less of a main-event threat in my eyes then. It's for the best he didn't get multiple world title runs after how things turned out too

Eddie though

 

[John Reena]

The WWE treated The Radicalz very good. Benoit main evented against The Rock, Dean got to be in a feud wit the white hot Hardy’s, Eddie was featured in countless great matches, won numerous titles, and was set to feud with Austin. Saturn messed up beating that jobber up.

Wrestling fans gotta chill with “Oh _____ was buried” just because WWE didn’t give them a “Lesnar/Cena” type push. It reminds me of how ppl keep whining about Asuka being buried. She been champ for like a year. How is she buried?

 

[Theodoresolderbreh]

malenko was lance storm status to whom it may concern backstage...and saturn tried to kill a nikka in the ring and got punished for it not to mention the drug abuse and his mental illness issues. and vince clearly has a complex. your work outside of wwe means nothing unless you were hogan or some shyt. Eddie and Benoît had to abuse steroids before they stopped getting jobbed out tho

Lol at this post

Benoit and Guerrero basically ended Road Dogg and Billy Gunn's role as midcarders and they were confined to just being a tag team after they arrived.

DX and NWO were basically A1 and A2 in that era. How you gonna compare the band of midgets to them?

Benoit and Guerrero were never at that world title level and were in fact instrumental in me becoming less interested in the product.

Malenko looked out of place as a motherfuker in WWE cause of his size. That iceman shyt wouldnt have worked so WWE should be credited for giving him a character that worked.

I think Saturn lost a step in the ring about the time he came to the WWE. The Saturn who had that program with Raven in WCW was never seen there.

And just for the record, the whole Eddie's lying, cheating and stealing shtick wasnt original. Kevin Nash did it first and dare I say did it better

Benoit main evented with the rock for world title in 2000
Then was going against austin a year later
The neck injury slowed him down momentum wise
And eddie has his own issues that slowed him down for a year and a half
Wasnt like they was doing nothing for 4 years
Holding i.c. U.s and tag belts those years as well
They wasnt doing shyt in wcw in comparison

youre missing the point.

im asking what did they do in the a WWE that was so much greater??

it took benoit & eddie 4 years to get the belt. eddie barely even had it. then they both died not too long afterwards.

not to mention that were roided up, like homie said.

you clearly didnt watch WCW, cuz benoit was doing all of that in WCW.
where you think the U.S. title came from in the first place?? you know the series with booker t was just them running chit back from their series in WCW, right??

who else was the rock gonna main event against in 2000?? keep in mind that the WCW roster was much stronger. of course hes gonna shine quicker on WWF's roster. they werent doing him any favors by giving him a title shot. lol.
