He got ther eventually though, but was probably lucky Vince invested so much money in him to start with to get the extra chances. I'm guessing a few other guys wouldn't have.
I thought they had asked him to change up the style...the double-triple powerbomb stuff was unexpected and caught me by surprise (I know he did it in Japan NOW, just never remembered it in WCW) and I remember him looking "huge" relatively speaking.

Hmmm, my memory may be faulty during that period.
