remembering the good ol days....and short lived careers
Some people laugh at me when i say it, some agree, but damn i miss the HeadBangers. They debuted in '96 and from the very first moment i was a fan. They were outrageous and nutty and fit prefecttly into the "attitude" era of the WWF. Though not destined for a long career in the WWE or singles careers of any kind the HeadBangers will always put a smile on my face.
Any thoughts...any other wrestlers with short-lived careers you care to remember??? |

As far as short lived 'WWF careers' go,I thought Scorpio/Flash
Funk brought alot to the table, and was never given a chance to display any of it.I was a big fan of his work in WCW and ECW - and overseas - and the way Vince and WWF did him was just totally wrong. Also,Vader. Here is a GREAT wrestler and entertainer,with the charisma, look, ability, and background of a World Champion (several times),and yet it is totally overlooked, and Vader is thrown a round for a while. So much more could have been done with Vader, and instead he gets a short run being managed by Jim Cornette,and jobbing in main events. |

Chavo's horse. I think it's name was Pepe.
Edit: and Moppy. Pepe and Moppy would've been one hell of a tag team duo. |

Nathan Jones.
I mean Essa Rios. Seriously, imagine the matches he could have done with Rey, Chavo, Tajiri, and Ultimo nowadays. |
