I think if you want to get technical, the Rock is the only megastar they have that literally never wrestled in the indies ever. Even Cena had a year or so in the indies.

Edit: looking it up, even Rock had a short indies run (although he did house show stuff for WWF even before that, so who knows if that "counts.")

Rock's stuff with Lawler was before he signed his WWF contract. Rock was a two time USWA World Tag Team Champion

Right, but who knows if that "counts" given that I don't think developmental even existed at that point and that everyone was farmed out to a territory without an official contract and certainly Lawler was feeding to WWF at the time.

Rock is substantially bigger than Lesnar is though.

Brock's NJPW run was after WWF though. Lesnar signed straight with the company and went to OVW. He was apparently in a Ohio Valley Tag Team called the "Minnesota Stretching Crew" with Shelton Benjamin.

Still needs the Nakamura rematch. I think Brock would have a fire lit under him for that match.
Based on his and Nakamura's shared affinity for mailing it in.

Ah, thought it was just in general indy runs we were talking about. My bad

NJPW isn't really an indie by the way most people define it, either. Even WWE will tacitly acknowledge NJPW's existence (usually by just mentioning the IWGP title), but just says "the independents" for literally every other promotion.

Listening to the E&C podcast with Kenny Omega.


Kenny popped them when he mentioned his tag team was called The Golden Lovers.

If Vince ever gets bored of Roman and wants to turn him heel he should play off that last wellness pop and bring back "sell drugs to kids" Roman.

Although Drug Dealer Roman would probably fit right in with the current Usos as a stable of unfortunate stereotypes.

With all the stories now of how Roman is seen as the locker room leader who cares about respecting the business, they need to stick him back in the suit and make him the corporate heel.

Put the Usos, Drug Dealer Roman, Carmella and Wannabe Gangsta Ellsworth in a huge stable of petty criminals running various grifting schemes. You can work in a worked shoot element by having it turn out Ambrose is betting on his own matches and then he gets suspended for violating league misconduct rules on gambling.

If you watch the first in-ring appearance of Reigns in NXT the commentators put him over as a future WrestleMania main-eventer on the first fucking broadcast (while he squashes Juice Robinson). He's a hilarious heel too if only because of his current persona.

If Vince is worried about the stable getting too cheered and not getting enough heat they can just call them "The Nintendo Scalpers"

Roman shows up to the commentary desk in the middle of a random match to offer Byron Saxton a SNES Classic for like $150 bucks as long he doesn't tell anyone where he got it.

And then the next week the ringside lighting doesn't work and it turns out it's because Roman and his crew stripped all the copper wiring out to sell on the black market.
