I just watched their whole run for the first time in tye last 6 months. They didn’t totally suck, but for how much they got pushed they were way less over than they should be with way less good moments.

Just as a tag team Palumbo and Ohaire were decent. Sanders was good on the mic.

It’s almost surreal how little charisma Stasiak had. Ohaire was awful on the mic but he had a unique look and cool move set.

4.

 

[Playaz Eyez]

These guys get a generous 5. I applaud WCW for pushing guys, but the only thing worst then randomly getting behind 1 guy is randomly getting behind 7 (or 8 if you include younger vet Billy Kidman). Mike Sanders had the best Mike skills out of all of them. O'Haire & Jindrak were a pretty entertaining team being that they were big dudes they did CW type moves. Reno was the first one I remember doing what would eventually be known as the Test Drive/Cross Rhodes, so he gets points for that. Shawn Staziak for the pedigree he had was pretty much a chiseled body and nothing else. No charisma, no nothing, just plain as shyt. I was always a Johnny the Bull fan cause I thought he had the most potential out of all of them. Him and Big Vito were a cool tag team.

TBH I'm kinda dozing off as I type this, so I'll just say "Devil's Advocate" Sean O'Haire and Chuck Palumbo as Chuck in Billy & Chuck >>>> Natural Born Thrillers. Those two in those gimmicks were more entertaining than anything the Natural Born Thrillers ever did in WCW. Out of all 7 of those guys, the ones who had the most success were Chuck Palumbo as Chuck, Johnny The Bull as Rellik in Japan and TNA, and Mark Jindrak as Marco Corleone in Mexico. In WCW, these guys as a stable were just young guys on TV being pushed during another re-boot and nothing more.

Only one of them is dead

[Berniewood Hogan]

Johnny The Bull as Rellik in Japan and TNA

Johnny the Bull was Rellik?

 

[mrken12]

 

[CM_Burns]

Forgot about Reno. He was pretty good, his work/look was believable as an enforcer.

Johnny the Bull was Rellik?

Rellik is actually Killer spelled backwards, it turns out.

 

[Ill Lou Malnati]

They were good for what they were. The only two that had zero redeeming qualities were Reno and Stasiak. Sanders could talk and was a decent wrestler, Palumbo/O'Haire/Jindrak all had a good size and good look, Johnny the Bull had some freakish athletic ability. Those five should've moved onto WWE and become bigger stars, but WWF was really shytty in the early '00s and never used them right.

They were there at a good time when WCW was transitioning from the older superstars and looking for younger wrestlers.

Sanders was a good mouthpiece, and Jindrak/O'Haire/Palumbo stood out the most for me.

 

[Ya' Cousin Cleon]

That year 2000 "look" everyone had back then

on the flipside, they could've been a dope addition to WWE, sorta like a Fraternity stable of mid/low card talent that haze jobbers, kidnap divas, pull pranks, etc

Like almost everyone that came over from WCW at that time. Hell, even Flair got some shyt when came over in the early 90's
