Seeing Test mentioned in this thread brings another one to mind: they completely wasted his win in the Immunity Battle Royal at Survivor Series 2001. Under the stipulation of the match, he had a guaranteed contract for one year no matter which company won at the end of the night.

By Survivor Series 2002, I bet nobody remembered that he had immunity in the first place because the storyline got dropped within a matter of weeks. I remember him Big Booting refs a few times but that's it. It never got referenced again after that and he would go back to being a nondescript hoss heel before joining the Un-Americans.

I just think he could have been booked as the biggest asshole imaginable during that one year run, he likely would have seen some success in the midcard title picture for the early part of 2002.

Then after the initial brand split happened rather than join the Un-Americans and move to Raw he could've stayed on SmackDown and been a great foil for face GM Stephanie McMahon as they could play off of their previous history. She can't fire him, and so he could have just continued to be an insufferable prick. By Survivor Series 2002 he could have been in a marquee match, and since that would have marked the expiration of his immunity his job could have been put on the line.
