Who was the first dude who put time into the indies and was loved, then went mainstream and sucked? No way it was Sydal, though.

I honestly quite like the Finn Balor name. I don't get why people are complaining about it being too nerdy given it's rooted in Irish mythology when at the same time they gush over him coming out painted as Marvel characters.
Low-Ki?

I dunno so much about Tazz - people still really enjoyed him in WWE for a good couple years, not the same crowd as ECW but still. It's a tough one.

Tony, Larry, and Brain do a great job of setting up the atmosphere that Hall and Nash have caused. You feel them all show even when they aren't on screen. When they finally DO show up, cops immediately hit the ring with hands on guns.

If we're talking about guys who were loved before the got to the WWE then went nowhere when they got their how about Ultimo Dragon? Ultimo was pretty well respected as a wrestler, competed around the world, was pushed as the next Rey on his debut and achieved nothing in the company.
I'd mention most of the ECW staples who appeared in the WWE too (Dreamer, Sabu, Sand Man etc...) but I'm not too sure they were ever considered great by the non ECW hardcore.

Nattie's character on total divas doesn't make any sense
I mean summer is supposed to be the "bitch" right?
Yeah, no. Nattie is seemingly the biggest "bitch" on the show and I'm pretty sure that's not supposed to happen

No that paint gimmick was stupid, I hope they don't let him do that shit.

what if he paints his face as jake from adventure time?

The paint gimmick was awesome live, not knowing what Devitt was going to come down the ramp as. I saw Joker, Bane & Hannibal Devitt.

Is that in the Huck Finn's commercial?
Coincidentally, I met Mic Foley at Huck Finn's Warehouse.

Remember when WCW had a mummy? It was hilarious.
It was not a mummy. It was the YET-TAY.

I'm gonna call Itami and Balor The Double Stompers

That suspiciously looked a whole lot like a mummy.
Also, I entered Comic Book Guy's real name into the generator and got Fierce Joker.

That's one thing I never got. Why did they call him that? Afterall, The Mummy 3 was 13 years away, and that had Yeti's in it.

Speaking of, I just entered my name and got
In some versions yeah.

What's in the box?!?!
It's Dean. AGAIN.
Yeah. Moved about 6 years ago. My mom still lives there though. I go back to visit at least once a year.
What's in the box?!?!
It's Dean. AGAIN.
I want to see Cormier spring out of a box and attack Jon Jones sometime.

I said "Damn." Reminds me of poor Spike Dudley taking those powerbombs from Brock. Just a massacre.
The ones that Mike Awesome gave Spike Dudley were brutal too.
I've said it many times over the past year or so: they're the reason I got back into wrestling. I stumbled upon one of their reviews on YouTube and was hooked.

I'm actually watching it right now. On to the Cena/Lesnar match.
Also, I happen to be Irish, like they are.

I'd support this. But I'd also support the inverse where Jon Jones springs out of a box to attack him, and this happens
