I think its less of a "Man we love Test and wish he had a better run" and more of a "Man, that could have been a big angle" mentality.

so basically you have a Hoss, not bad in the ring, good look. You had a top Heel. You had a Hot angle. And somehow all that came from it was Test facing Shane and sticking in the mid card, and annoying Stephanie. Typical HHH/MacMahon "spotlight" stealing.

Test was the first person to hit HHH's class ceiling
You pretty much said it for me. He was over because of the angle. Not because of his individual talent. He wasn't bad. Certainly intercontinental champion worthy, but he lacked the charisma, and personality to be a top guy. While good in the ring, he wasn't near good enough to make up for the previous mentioned problems.
