Bad Investment
What are some contracts in WWE,TNA, or any other wrestling companies that you think were just total waste of time and money. Say anybody even if there Employed or not. I can think of few..........
Santino Marella (He should be a manager not a wrestler and well I hate him) Jimmy Rave Judas Messias Big Daddy V, Viscera,King Mabel The Mean Street Posse Adam Pacman Jones Oh there is so many more i could name............. |

the mean street posse a bad investment? You just watch yourself son.
In all honesty though, I would have marked if they came to help Shane with legacy. It would have been ridiculous, but I can still mark |

I was watching NWO at a bar, and right when Legacy hit, somebody screamed out 'Where's the Mean Street Posse!' I couldn't even contain my laughter. FTR, Santino is a great talent. his biggest problem is that the WWE gave his gimick to Koslov. that whole competition video reminded me of his OVW work. |

No Satino is big fucking waste of money. Somebody tell me why he is so fucking great? Why does everyone hold the pussy up on a pedestal.

He is one of the most entertaining characters on the roster. Crowds chant his name when he isn't even wrestling. Now THAT'S being over. How are you not entertained by him?

How the hell ahs he gotten over by basically doing nothing please explain to me. Don't say just because he is fucking funny. Hes a joke pretty much ruined the IC title and well his so called wrestling ability or,the lack there of,is just plain horrible. I could give fuck less about what he babbles about. If there going to bring in an Itailian Stereotype they should have made dress up as Mario so TNA and WWE would each have a fucking videogame character well see which one gets the better ratings. Jesus I have jsut stated why i hate him...............

The whole idea of his character is for him to be comedic. And the fact is, he's fucking funny. If you don't like him, stop bitching and just don't watch him. Santino is an awful example of a bad investment. Mark Henry, on the other hand, is a wonderful example.

Santino was in a bad position, rep to you screech for the video. If Santino came to WWE with his moveset added to this gimmick, He'd be fine. He's just funny now, Vladimeer Koslov is getting ME pushes with Santino's gimmick, that has to suck.

I run the risk of "Noiding Up" here, but many of the guys that have been named really aren't/shouldn't have been such bad investments.
The Great Khali for one is a fantastic investment - especially if we are talking moneywise. He opens the Indian/Asian market up to WWE, as made by clear that a Khali loss is edited out of WWE programming shown in India. Hell, even Bid Daddy V wasn't that bad. Granted he shouldn't have ever won KotR (that was a bad investment) but who doesn't think a 500lb, black guy is intimidating? He worked well within the Ministry and Big Daddy V gave him a new lease of life. Zack Gowen, Colin Delaney and Santino even have their worth. Not every wrestler can be a Batista or a Cena. They offered/offer an alternative in a sideshow kinda way (well, for Gowen and Delaney). Mark Henry on the otherhand was a bad investment based solely on the fact that he was givem a ridiculous contract. |

Goldberg in the WWE.
The Juniors division. BTW, A Khali loss is never edited in India. Besides the WWE was way too popular during the attitude era. WWE's popularity saw a decline after the departure of the Rock and Stone Cold. TNA gives some tough competition to the WWE in India. Last edited by GD; 02-20-2009 at 05:18 PM. |

The fact that two people hate him doesn't mean he's a bad investment. He is over with the crowd and his shirts sell (I see them everywhere). You should change "he's a bad investment" to "I just don't like him." They're two completely different things. He makes money for the company, so he's not a bad investment.
