Angles/Gimmicks that could have drawn big money and didnt
Lets all share ideas of Angles/Gimmicks that we think made it big but never got a chance to make the money they could have.

My first example? The Brood.

To this day very popular. Great talent. WAS OVER. Fans were digging them. Great entrance. Great looks. Great wrestlers.

I think had they really pushed the Brood first as Teag Team champs, then more they could have at the time made ALOT of money.

In the end 2/3 made it huge. But I never stop thinking they dropped the ball on big money with a Face brood...

Totally agreed on the Brood. Personally, I think that Ron Simmons could have done something. His work in the Nation was good, and his work with the APA is untouchable for what it was, but he was a former World Champion in WCW, and a powerhouse fellow. I think they could have done something more with him in the mid-late 90's as a singles wrestler.

I am a big Simmons mark. The problem with him is when? I think he rebounded the best he could from a weak Farooq debut and maybe could have had a good run as a heel champ leading the Nation. Only the Rock outshined him immediately. After that, with the APA, he was on his last legs.

I truly think if the Rock wasnt as amazing as he is, Farooq could have been a legit main eventer with the nation backing him.

Would it beat WCW? Not saying that.

The Union. Mankind, Big Show and Shamrock were all pretty over. Test not so much but the stable never really did a whole lot.

Better than 4Horseman/Sting vs J Tex

WCW Invasion.

One way : Eric bischoff should have been brought in a GM of Smackdown, staged a coup of some sort and converted Smackdown into WCW Nitro. We could have had a staged war between the two brands for years.

So any ideas : Eric trying to steal talent from Raw, People turning heel by jumping ship to the "other" company.

Once a year there could have been a cross promotional PPV to blow off the year long cross promotional feuds.

Test himself I thought could have/should have been a bigger star. He had the look certainly, and there's definitely been worse in-ring performers cluttering up main event scenes before and after him. Perhaps stick him with a mouthpiece and I would have easily bought into him as a top-line, world title carrying headliner.

Had they done the logical thing and had Test feud with HHH after the wedding, rather than pairing him with Shane, Test could have been huge. I feel like that moment was when Test's downfall began.

True, Harris came to the WWE looking like he spent the past 3 months on a non stop all you can eat buffet spree.
And I liked Harris in TNA...

Once a year there could have been a cross promotional PPV to blow off the year long cross promotional feuds.
as if it took 16 posts for this to come up. The Invasion should have been head and shoulders the biggest angle in the history of professional wrestling and it should have stayed that way for as long as pro wrestling existed or until another company grew to WCW's level, fell apart and was purchased by Triple H Jr.

That is how you make a new star. Very good point. Could have elevated him to a top level but never got behind him.

I thin kthe Invasion is sucha given that I dont even see the need to mention it. Obviously it should have been huge and was a complete fuck up. It was at that point I think Vince really lost contact with his audience and hasnt connected since.

First thing that came to mind, pretty much the same with 90% of the WCW talent the brought in though.

Yeah. He really should have been leading the Invasion with Booker T. Instead he was a foot note.

The Nexus.

Should have lasted until Mania accumulating in a Barret vs Cena match but instead became a joke within a few weeks of their debut. Same for the Punk version when it went against Orton since that one also didn't last till Mania.


New Blood vs Millionaire Club.

In theory the New Blood should have been the ones getting cheered and become the future stars of WCW but horrible booking and direction basically killed them from ever getting over besides Kidman I think.

Agree with Test, Agree with The Brood, Sean O'Haire's gimmick was underrated, Loved Mordecai too bad he didn't last long. Nexus was awesome til Cena treated them like jobbers few months later.

The Brood had a guy designated as their leader and they had a good talker. The big issue with the Brood was that the leader and the talker were two different people.

That said, I would have bought the SHIT out of a "The Freaks Come Out at Night" shirt.
