Bossman was a great heel, he was just feuding with the wrong champion in Big Show. It was kinda like two negatives colliding, and it wasn't a draw at all. Bossman was at his height against Hulk Hogan in a cage match on Saturday Night's Main Event, he was very over as a baby face at one point as well. I think he could have taken the title in the early 90's as a transitional champion but it's probably good that he didn't.
You mention Billy Gunn, it could have been interesting to kept Road Dogg with him as a manager that helped him win all the time, if he would have gotten the gold. A heel Billy Gunn and Road Dogg feuding with a baby face Triple H after a DX split could have been great.
