Too Much Pre Debut Hype
 
So I was remembering WCW when they had that "Blood Runs Cold" pre debut hype for Glacier. They played it for several weeks and when he finally debuted he turned out to be just another low/midcarder.

Any wrestlers you can think of that were Over Hyped and they did'nt really go anywhere?

I was so fucking hyped for Glacier. I was all like "OMG, Sub Zero's coming to WCW!!!"

Anyway, hows about good ol' Shockmaster? Or the Black Scorpion? And we can't forget the Gobbledygooker.

Brakus

His debut wasn't a bad one, he was the first person to beat Kurt Angle, and it was a surprise I thought, could be wrong.

Anyway what about Seven!

I agree, his little promos before his debut made him seem like the real deal

I miss Mordecai

Brakus (Achim Albrecht) actually did have a WWF match that was released on VHS back in (I think) 1998 called Mayhem In Manchester which was the ill-fated 2nd UK only PPV which never actually made it to PPV. I think he fought Tiger Ali Singh but don't hold me to that.

Come to think of it, he had a match in the Brawl For All tournament as well. Against Savio Vega I think.

I pity the fool who puts Mr T and Brakus in the same sentence.

Also, Brakus was actually the bad guy in some shitty action movie.
