Y'all ever had wrestlers who got released that everyone else called "fumbles" but you never thought were that good to begin with?

Breh Bray Wyatt was fumbled

When they made him The Fiend, they should have let him terrorize the entire roster for years and take every belt and beat everyone's ass and be an unbeatable psycho that never loses.
Nah, they ruined The Fiend character by having him win the title. Why would a character like that care about a title?

Y'all really didn't like Damien Sandow? :dwillhuh:
Before they made him into the comedy stooge, I thought he was doing great work. Wasn't it Cody he teamed with before that too?

he was good in a Santino way where he could take goofy material and make it work. There's a place for someone like that on the show, currently Chelsea Green is the top example of that. But people thought after the feud with Miz he should be moved up the card to like IC title or even main event level and he cut 1 promo and showed why he needed to stay in that comedy lane for good

Some dude really ran in here to say Bobby Lashley of all people :mjlol: And no.... he and The Hurt Business did NOT get a proper run in WWE, the legs were cut out from them right away and they were getting really over with the gimmick...

Time will tell if Khan fukks them up as well. I wouldn't be shocked if he does.

A lot of people hate Sandow, huh?

Regardless of how you feel, there's no reason Cena should have beaten him the way he did. Was he going to drop the World Heavyweight Championship a day after winning it? Hell no. Did it make sense for him to go 50/50 with Sandow and beat him after getting violently assaulted minutes before, and having his surgically repaired arm smashed with a chair? Hell no.

That fumble word is the new "deserve", "buried", etc... people running that shyt in the hole for people who were never gonna be the big deal that social media swear they should be.

Sandow quickly comes to mind... he cut a few good promos and MFs wanted belts thrown on him overnight. He wasn't bad, but hey... neither was Lanny Poffo. They still weren't givin' Poffo a title while his brother was there.

Karrion Kross is showing for the last 2 years that he had much bigger issues with getting over than wearing a Demolition mask, lol...

I hope the internet finally has come to terms with the fact that Ryback was never gonna be the man whether that screwjob match against Punk happened or not...

and I'll be glad when people stop saying Mustafa Ali was going to wrestle Bryan for the title until he got injured and Kofi Mania happened- cause truth be told, if he was that close to winning the WWE title, he would've at least been in line for a secondary championship at some point after that.

A fumble is MVP in the late-2000s. A fumble is not a person who barely got over in the first place being released because it wasn't really workin' out.

Wait until people find out Kevin Owens was supposed to face Bryan at WrestleMania, not Mustafa. :sas2:

Yeah, Bobby Lashley should be at ROCK BOTTOM LEAST where drew is still, and THB should be where judgement day is...it's crazy how long THAT fukkin stable has been running comparatively.

That was a fumble.

I thought the Dom/Liv relationship added some new intrigue to the stable so I see why they did it but yeah it's probably time to end all of that now. How long can they feud with Priest and Rhea. I don't even wanna check to see how long it's been.

I mean...edge formed it for context of time. I have no problem with the stable but saying THB had ran it's course or WWE thinking so when judgement day is still going on is wild

to be fair about Judgment Day... their current lineup consists of zero of the original members. They've gone full TNA stable with it and kept the name while changing the group's identity, card placement and cast entirely.

I couldn't have stood them doing that to the Hurt Business. If one day Hurt Business was somehow Ridge Holland, Johnny Gargano, Ivy Nile and JeVon Evans, I'd have some problems.

but yeah... Lashley's whole career is basically being purposefully fumbled across American TV :francis: They undermine him when he gets traction everywhere he goes. He's batting 1.000 on it. Khan, you on the clock :ufdup:

The hurt business/syndicate as a group. They been doing that act across different companies, had pushes, title reigns etc. I just don’t see what they can do in aew that’ll be all that different or original. All 3 members are dope but they should try something else in aew
Oh damn I always assumed THB was one of the only enjoyable things during that era? And is it true The Bloodline bit them?
