JBL was a European Champion and a Texas redneck that was quite popular but never taken as a future main eventer, now look a him. All they did was have him start acting intelligent (something you should do judging by your death threast later in the thread) and slap a business suit on him. That's a pretty damn good improvement.
Eddie Guerrero is another example. He started off as a Radical, but soon they became jokes and Perry Saturn, Dean Malenko & Eddie Guerrero were horribly misused. Eddie Guerrero came back about a year later and captured some lightning in a bottle after becoming a WWE Tag Team Champion and went on to win a Royal Rumble and become a WWE Champion. This may be inaccurate, but I think he was the smallest WWE Champion ever.
To say Scotty 2 Hotty will never be a World Champion because he's a "Velocity mid-carder" is stupid and short-sighted. Give the guy the gimmick change he deserves, give him a finishing move, give him a stable and he's pretty much a main eventer, or at least a challenger for the WWE United States Championship.
If the WWE builds up their cruiserweights to the point where they can challenge for the WWE Championship effectively, then there would be few problems with the Cruiserweight Division today. Unfortunately that will never happen due to the lack of attention it has been getting. Hopefully the rumours about a change in this are true so guys like Paul London, Akio, Nunzio and Funaki get the credibility they deserve.
