spman Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 I was thinking about this tonight, besides the Luchas like La Parka, how many wrestlers from WCWs run who had any measurable level of success never wrestled at any point for Vince Mcmahon? The only guys I can think of are: Sting Alex Wright Disco Inferno Stevie Ray Steve McMichael Maybe Horace Hogan? Are there any others?
Guest Arnold_OldSchool Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Horace got a tryout IIRC Kevin Sullivan --- is one name that jumps out

Other Guys I have since come up with Ron Reese, Glaicier, Renegade, Tank Abbott, Bobby Duncam Jr., Van Hammer.
Richard Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Mongo was at WMXI as part of LT's "all-pro" team.
MillenniumMan831 Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Riggs was Lex Luger's flag bearer for his KOTR Qualifying Match against Yokozuna in 1995. Lenny Lane wrestled a Heat match or 2 last year.
cabbageboy Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 I have always wondered why WWE never wanted to sign Norman Smiley. The guy was over, had a fun gimmick with the Wiggle, and could wrestle as well. Surely they could have done something with him.
AlaskanHero Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Actually, Norman's had a few tryout matches for WWE in the past.
Red Baron Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Van Hammer is useless. He'd fit right in with the current WWE product.
cawthon777 Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Van Hammer is useless. He'd fit right in with the current WWE product. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> He had a few tryouts in 93 following his WCW stint.
cawthon777 Posted September 30, 2005 Report Posted September 30, 2005 Scott Norton Vampiro The Equalizer / Dave Sullivan Bunkhouse Buck Sgt. Craig Pittman Loch Ness Prince Iaukea Lash LeRoux Sullivan did work for Vince Sr. as a babyface in the late 70s.
