Billy Gunn could have been great but even when they tried to lose the stupid Mr Ass gimmick they fucked it up

...it pains me to say this, but I truely believe that the reason Billy Gunn didn't make it big was Triple H. I could pull out an entire Shadow Conspiracy Theory on it, but I will just leave it at the fact that in my estimation had Hunter not had the stroke he had, Gunn would be World Champion...I have no doubt of that.

The WWE did just mess Billy up after his KOTR win putting him in the reformed DX when he could have easily went against them and even when it looked like they were going to main event him by having him as the man who ran down SCSTA they just pulled out that and shoved the fat waste of space Rikishi into the main event. After these two key mistakes they made him The One Billy Gunn then put him with Chuck and killed his career
What a waste

Even "The One" gimmick wasn't bad......they screwed him over by buring him. He was getting HUGE reactions. I have them on tape, seriously, his pops were incredible. His 2 week reign with the Intercontinental Championship wasn't great, but even there the fans still were behind him...then they dropped him down to HeAT for no reason, still getting solid reactions, Royal Rumble came along and he still had the crowd on his side despite being all but meaingless in the Rumble match, had him come in at No Way Out and win the Hardcore Title for 15 seconds, and then totally denied him a place on WrestleMania 17...and through all of this he still got huge pops. He was the king of jobbers, and the crowd still ate him up...

Lance Storm (the fans didn't care about him in WWE anyway, and the whole "boring" thing didn't help)
Regal
D'lo
Steve Blackman (I can see why, but hey, I've always liked him)
Ken Shamrock
Billy Gunn
Justin Credible (yeah, I like him, wanna fight about it? Should have reformed the Impact Players during the Invasion instead of friggin' putting him in X-Factor which killed any form of popularity he could have had before the Invasion began)

Maven, guy was awesome as a heel. I will still remember when he wanted to get in the Royal Rumble and he told anyone in the back to comeout, and both Kane and Stinkey did (Both injuryed like crazy) and he still lost. Hehe that was a funny day.
