Mark Henry second run in 2000s was way better than his first run in late 90s
FACTS but I did like the sexual chocolate gimmick he had in the attitude era.
@@cliffordjackson3yup
Mark Henry also dealt with injury issues in his early years with WWE.
Yet still pales compared to his run as The World's Strongest Man...which only made him all the more over when he established the Hall of Pain.
@@HansenSebastianwasn't mark Henry already called "world's strongest man", since his debut? It's been always his monicker...
Eva Marie should have just been a manager from the start
agree she has the look but can she cut a promo for her client tho
FACTS.
except she could barely talk on live TV or in her film roles. She's a beautiful woman and from the sound of it has other talents and passions. But she's not as charismatic as she is attractive. Despite having athletic skills (you don't just get that kind of body and she was a talented soccer player) she sucked as a wrestler.
Honestly, she should've never been signed past initial interviews.
Yup
No… she shouldn’t have even been the bell ringer
If Paul Heyman can't help you then you know you're doomed
To be fair, the only 3 successful Heyman guys are Lesnar, Punk and Roman and Punk didn't need any help. Being a Heyman guy is heavily overrated in the community.
@jackgonahieu4999 Rvd and big show were also champions under him so he has had many top talents under him including 3 who have some of the longest reigns of all.
@@jamescardiff6481 yeah
@@jackgonahieu49995 actually big show, rvd, lesnar , reigns, punk were all elevated
@@bigdonald123 Big Show was sent back down to development, that ain't success. RVD was a "Heyman Guy" as much as any other ECW wrestler was, not the same at all. Punk didn't need any elevation, Heyman himself said he loved working with him because all he had to do was pose with the title lol.
I like how you get straight to the point no intro
Good for Nathan Jones to find some small yet recognizable roles in cinema. You don't forget his face once you've seen Mad Max
just looked him up and damn, he was the guy that broke his arm while arm wrestling magnus samuelsson at wsm 95!
He also appeared in Mortal Kombat and even Hobbs & Shaw…kinda imagined what would have went down when meeting Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson
Nathan Jones eventually found success in movies such as Troy, Never back down 3 & Mad max. WWE was more of a stepping stone for him.
Troy was his best role.
yeah, that dude actually doing well in movies as he played more than 50 movies so far, fought with Brad Pitt, Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Tony Jaa, and even fought with Jax in Mortal Kombat movie.
The former K-Kwik was probably the only wrestler who had a uniquely athletic moveset in the 2000s.
Thanks to his time in TNA and as the NWA World Heavyweight Champion, WWE hired Ron Killings back and R-Truth has become one of the most funniest and lovable performers for the past 15 years. 😊
Hopefully Tom and Nick Mysterio will listen and benefit from R Truth's wisdom.
Wasted talent
Agreed, his style was a work of art and from what I remember from his days with Road Dogg, Kwik was for sure getting reactions from the crowd.
Matt Morgan was supposed to play Undertaker & Kane's third brother in storyline but was scrapped alrogether due to Morgan being too green in the ring
Atleast he improved on TNA
@@studentNEET319true plus i wont imagine him being a supernatural character like taker and kane its unnatural
@@therandomcommunityguy I can see him being apart of them only during Takers American Badass Gimmick,Basically what Dijak is now,a bounty bunter
@@studentNEET319 true but with that type of matches he had he need more improvement taker had alot of experience in the ring so was kane and matt simply is not ready yet for the big time hes tna run is good tho
I didn’t know that all I know from matt morgan run was they had him do squashes.
Jack Swagger...A perfect example of getting too much too soon.
swagger character was too stiff, and unlikable. We The People Gimmick also felt Generic.
I like how people tried to use that as an example of a John Cena “burial” and yet no one liked Swagger anyways 😂
but that was not because he was still too green. he was an amateur wrestler before. he was simply a bad world champion.
Despite not liking him, Swagger wasn't green at all, he had the skills, the problem was his character
@@sonomnicena buried countless of superstars in his prime pretty sure we didn’t care for jack but he still got him tho 😂
Luckily for Matt Morgan, he got redemption in TNA Wrestling.
He's also Immortal yeah they took all the smart people and put them in a satellite
He chose family over the business, so that makes him even MORE awesome!
Yup, he was work in TNA redeemed his WWE work.
Not really lol he got lost in the shuffle there
Wrestlers Who Far Too Green is the type of Vince McMahon who would like to give a mega push in WWE since a few decades ago
Hawoooo!!!
I love the intro, straight to the point. Not a 5 page essay on what being green means and why you think these guys failed.
Well done on not mentioning R-Truth going to TNA and becoming the NWA World Champion after his first WWE run!
He did not realize that Brian Adams was Crush and had a semi successful run in WWF as Crush years prior.
@@duggywildAnd Bryan Clark had been Adam Bomb in WWF in the '90s before coming back in 2001 as part of Kronik.
@@ernestcruz6316 Yeah both Clark and Adams have been wrestling for about 10 years at that point but have been sent to developmental because they were "too green". Sure.
Most of giant type of wrestlers: Great Khali, Giant Gonzales, Andre, etc.
Go watch Khali in ECW. He was a legit machine! He injured his leg and was unable to move like that anymore by the time he got to WWE
And now Omos
Early in his career, Andre used to do drop kicks and all kinds of other moves. Later in his career, especially in the 80's, injuries and his weight made it so he could barely move in the ring.
You didn’t say Andre did you???
_Literally_ the opposite of what's being talked about in this video. Khali and Andre were examples of how the business can be so hard on giants' bodies that as _veterans_ their performance underwhelms. This video is about wrestlers--mostly indeed "body guys" since they are more likely to be favored for potential just because of that factor--whose skills are not up to the push they get as _rookies_ .
Honestly Dana Brooke actually improved her in ring work and had better results than Eva Marie's two runs with WWE
I don't think being better results than Eva Marie is much of an accomplishment....
@@RinJacksonTrue but I think he means she was AJ Styles in the ring compared to Eva😂😂🤦🏾♂️💯
@@chocolatedaddy2094 well if you had to put it it like that then idk Aj Styles levels but definitely someone else
@@RinJackson it's not much but it's better
That's not saying much
I wouldn't call Kronik too green. They were highly experienced. Hell, that was Crush and Adam Bomb, they had been there before. They just had the wrong style at the wrong time, they didn't gel with any of the tag teams at all. That's why they failed.
But brothers of destruction are good?
@@mithunkumar25557 What's wrong with them? I like to compare BOC to the Natural Disasters back in the 90's. An incredibly big, powerful, and dominant team that I think were just put together at the wrong time.
The funny thing about Kronic is that both wrestlers had been in the WWF before. Crush as the 3rd member of Demolition and then Kona Crush and Mortis as Adam Bomb. I think their problem was that they didn't click as a tag team. There was no chemistry. They would have been better off as singles competitors.
Problem was by the time they were brought back to WWE they were kind of old. Some guys age faster than others. These two were not Terry Funk. They couldn’t perform at a high level anymore.
how was Adams and Clark green? does anyone not remember Crush
and Adam Bomb? Mark Henry had a great run after he joined the Nation
of Domination and so on. loved his character Sexual Chocolate!!
A Train/Albert/Lord Tensai should have been on this list as well.
Exactly. Kronik had each had individual stints with WWF in the '90s. Adams as Crush was part of the D.O.A. and was part of Demolition. He had WrestleMania matches against Doink (the two Doinks match at WM9) and Randy Savage (WM10). The Rock should have been on the list because he botched relatively easy spots and should've gotten way more seasoning and training than he did before coming up to the roster.
I was looking for this comment. For those that don't know watch some @osw
In their case, too "Green" means something else. 🚬
I saw Adam Bomb wrestle back in the 90s. He was cool back in the day.
I may have pulled a muscle cringing at Adams and Clark being "too green for the main roster" in 2001. Going to developmental to adapt or re-invent themselves would've been a much more fortunate choice of words.
Bryan Clarke almost been sent to developmental in 2001 is hilarious; he debuted on TV for the WWF in *1993* as Adam Bomb... 🤣🤣
What's so odd with Kronik is that they were both long-tenured talents, with both having previous runs in WWF, but for whatever reason they just didn't work post-WCW.
They didn't want to change their styles back to the wwe style of wrestling hence why they were both giving the proverbial boot
Undertaker buried them silently behind scenes. Kronik were more exciting than any tag team in WWE at the time.
@@spike3082 And the WWE never had a good big man tag team for over a decade afterwards.
It's very weird. I think it was partly political, but I can't buy guys like Taker and Kane intentionally tanking a PPV match, so clearly something was wrong.
@hia5235 other than Kane and Taker not really the tag team division definitely went stale for years afterwards
Great channel! Always come here for my wrestling news
Adams and Clark were buried because they both left went to WCW and came back because everyone knows how Vince McMahon just loves when the talent gets over without his help, and we know how he loved the WCW Brand
U forgot to mention that kronik and clark were friends with Kane and undertaker .
They were BEST FRIENDS and undertaker requested the match himself
Never forget watching Smackdown in London Ontario in the early 2000's (2003 maybe?). Nathan Jones comes out, completely misses a kick during his match, then gets sent back to the back to come out and do it all over again. Biggest gaffe I've seen live.
Just jumpin' right in! Love it!
Adam Bomb and Crush didn't know the WWF style? Sure, OK.
Vladimir Kozlov and Jinder Mahal comes to mind
Kronik being green doesn't make much sense... both former WWE wrestlers from the 90s.
I'm shocked that WWE never used Matt Morgan. I was blown away by his feats of strength, like when he F5'ed the big show, twice.
I think Johnny the Bull is another candidate to add to the list. Him press slamming Rikishi is one of the better feats of strength I've seen, and I don't remember him being utilized much after that.
Crazy thing about Kronik is that both were WWE talent at one point or another if my memory serves right.
R Truth is comedic legend
How was Adam's tooo Green ?? Makes no sense since he was a huge star a cpl yrs earlier as Crush !!
Exactly, this guy does not know much about wrestling.
7:07 I’ve never seen that clip before that’s funny asf 😂
Matt Morgan started out like Cena in his debut run. He had that "Prototype" gimmick going. It wasn't going to last eventually, sad that WWE couldn't come up with another gimmick for his look.
Loving this. Especially the Mark Henry one. Wow
Whats odd to me about kronik is that both adams and clark had worked for wwe previously. Adam bomb and crush and were alright in there first runs and seemed like a decent a tag team in wcw
Funny about Kronik, The were in the old WWF era, if they woulda team up in the 90’s, they probably woulda dominated the other teams
Kronik weren't bad and certainly weren't green. The problem was that their gimmick was very similar to the APA and their look was similar to Undertaker and Kane but had the personality of none of them. They should have been kicking the hell out of cruiserweights for a few months and then acrual tag teams before they had the atrocious match with Kane and Taker.
I loved K-kwik back in the day. I haven’t watched wrestling since 06 so I never knew what happened to him until I watched this video.
Insane, i remember seeing kronik as a kid. Remembering they were huge, and towered over everyone... seeing this video is mine blowing how small they are compared to wwe guys
I blame management
aka vince mcmahon
Kronik was really good at WCW but all of a sudden in WWE they are not even good for developmental? No way. Something fishy.
Anyone who goes from failing in WWE to succeeding in another organization shows just how poorly of a Job WWE creative are doing, and really drops the ball. Vince was a creative M0R0N! He struck lightening only TWICE with his own creative gimmicks. Hogan and The Undertaker. Everything after 1990 he came up with was complete BS.
Hogan. ROFLMFAO
How can Clarke and Adams be green when they were already having proper runs in WWE 7 years prior?!
Really liked them in WCW
And again that is some great WRESTLING CONTENT 😎👍
Matt Morgan was better off in TNA anyways so
I thought jones left because he started being a movie actor thanks for clearing that up sir
Mordecai vs Undertaker would've been amazing match
Not sure how Kronik wasn't able to work the WWE style since they were both in the WWE only a few years earlier. I can't see the WWE style changing that much from the Attitude Era to the Ruthless Aggression ERA.
R-Truth is a WWE National Treasure! Truth craved out a place for himself in WWE and he continues to nail it each and every time because he's so doggone funny! Without a doubt R-Truth is a future HOFamer!
I watched basically no wrestling for the past 20-22 years.
Upon resuming viewership, there were of course very few wrestlers still active in the WWE. With Lesnar gone, it leaves Orton and… K-Kwik?! That’s a wrestler I never thought would be one of the most over, let alone active at all, 20 years down the line. Props.
Nathan Jones is did great in movies in bollywood hindi movies too. I saw him in a tiger shroff movie he was big guy villain in that the monster phyisique. The good team with undertaker,moredekei the man with creative ideas of two great gimmick but ring performance messed up if that not happen he was also horror gimmick better💥Mason would be batista 2.0 , eva Marie what the diva she was really missimg her today too, in the video the way she remove out gear for wrestling wear is amazing too see😍😍❤. Hope she come bqck beautiful, elegant , wwe should give her better run, hope hhh bring bsck her. Love to see. Overall great video.
A great majority of the time when WWE over pushes Talents, it intends to backfire. Barri Griffiths(aka Mason Ryan) was super green at the time when he signed to WWE, but due to management wanting a Batista 2.0, and Griffiths had the right look that management wanted, they gave him televised work a little to soon. Also, WWE likes to heavily bury their talent when time time comes to release them, or simply keep them around because of their looks.
Mason Ryan would've been Batista 2.0
I was going to say that Mason Ryan was a Batista wannabe.
@@deevacookseycooksey9662true they want to replicate the same formula if only ryan can wrestle like batista but fail
Seems to me, that WWE, instead of making their superstars better, looses interests in them too soon.
Vince's poor managment skills.
... which is a totally unnecessary thing to create in the first place.
@@e2mwpg true its unnecessary indeed so im glad vince is now out of the picture well kinda hes been out of touch last decade and finally its getting better since his disappearance
R- Truth will retire and be a first ballot Hall of Famer when the time comes
7:46 no.3 legit shocked me… I was excited.. then he was gone
R-truth is such a blast watching him entertain
Mason ryan could've been the next batista
Could have, but he was too green and had zero charisma.
@@American-ZeroRight smh a fukken tomato had more charisma and even Ryback had better ring skills than Mason😂😂😂🤦🏾♂️💯
@@chocolatedaddy2094 I know right?! Dude was just...big, nothing else. Vince figured he'd be his next Batista..but unlike him, Dave actually had personality and charisma. This big roid freak just couldn't cut it.
@@American-Zero 💯
I’ll always call Truth K-kwik. I saw him at a live show and was really impressed with his in ring skills! Always thought he had potential and I’m glad he got his.
Gave this video a thumbs down because as several have pointed out, the "Kronik" tag team consisted of two men on their 2nd/3rd stints as "WWE Superstars".
You cant call them "green" amongst NXT and FCW graduates. Adams and Clark not only had previous WWF stints, but respective time in New Japan and the AWA 😂
The NXT run for dana was so sad the way they just dropped her in the middle of an angle like that. Okay but Dana now Ash Elegence is actually super fun on TNA right now. I wonder if the Emmalina character was actually her idea at first, cause it feels like its a glammed up evolved form of it. Danalina. lol
There so many i could think of, Valmair Koslov was one of them, Heidenreich (suppose to be a tag team match taker and kane vs snisky and heidenreich) due to Heidenreich being green that match was scrapped glad it did and made it better with randy vs taker!
I loved K-Kwik in 2001, seriously loved his tag team with Road Dogg and the whole getting rowdy theme tune. I was 13. So let me off. R-Truth was at his best in a tag team with Goldust, thought they had great chemistry. I was kinda pumped when they split and it seemed like it was going to be an interesting feud betweem the two.
Eva Marie they should've kept her in NXT for a long time.
I think I figured out how Eva Marie probably got her push...
Right
Where's Heidenreich???
Doing poetry in a dark room probably
With Michael Cole 😅
@@Edddddddddie heidenrape?
I definitely remember flex kavana but I don’t remember Mark Henry in Memphis
I'm not sure why R-Truth is on the list, he was far from "green" when he came to the WWE back then and definitely didn't fail. He was cut due to budgets a long with 15 other wrestlers..
Dana Brooke is improving in TNA
Kronik were sabotaged because they were part of WCW. Neither of them were green in even the remotest fashion.
Lars Sullivan has a Dave Meltzer 5 star rated match, while Kurt Angle does not.
Next video: Most Overrated pushes starring Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins.
Dude mimics what ever WWE puts out so he won't say that, even though its true
2019 was a hellish year lol
Becky actually stayed over with fans but Seth Rollins the whole crowd turned on him after summerslam
I always thought rollins in ring skill is why he gets pushed.
It’s a shame Mordecai didn’t work. I would’ve like you to have seen a light antagonist for the Undertaker.
Hold up, Kronik? They had a combined 27 years of experience in 2001 and both of them had multi-year stints in WWF in the New Generation days. I mean they weren't very good, but I wouldn't accuse them of being green.
Nathan Jones & Matt Morgan could have Been a power tag team
I was always bummed that Nathan Jones didn't make it, but I'm glad he found his footing in movies.
Adams was too GREEN for the main roster? LOL Guy who wrestled Randy Savage at Mania was too green, are you serious?
Adams who?
@@rishitsharma8791 Crush Brian Adams
@@rishitsharma8791Brian Adams. Used to be crush in WWE before going to wcw, he then returned as part of Kronik.
I never understood that either
Let’s not forget Clark was Adam Bomb. They’d both been in the business for quite a while at that point and just don’t fit when compared to the rest of the list.
Would've been nice to see R-Truth get a much deserved run with the WWE Championship tho...
T-Ruth just shouldn't be on this list. He was better from the scratch then some of the guys on this list after years-and-years of practice!
I dunno why, but when i was a kid, the Mordecai character really got me
This list needed The Ascension lol.
I felt that Dana Brook was underdeveloped as a main roster talent although I never had too much of a problem with her as an in ring performer she just had an awful finisher.
Everybody has to start somewhere
I’ll never understand why Dana Brook was called up from NXT in the first place. They tried pushing her even there but even the limited Full Sail crowd wasn’t into it at all. If she failed on NXT, why the hell did they think she’d succeed in the main roster?
Mordecai couldn't get over because he didn't have his partner Rigby yet.
Nah salute to matt morgan tho...podcast was lit for a min💎💯
Mordecai could have worked if he faced Rigby lmao
That would only work if they had Benson as the special guest referee 😂😂
Seriously tho Muscle Man Vs Skips would be a WrestleMania Main Event level match😂
Here's my list
10. Mark Henry
9. Jackson Andrews

The best part about truth is that he along with the Miz are now the SmackDown tag team champions. They captured the titles at wrestlemania 40 in April 2024. Absolutely awesome. I was so happy to see that he finally got some recognition. I always thought that truth was extremely underrated and underappreciated as a wrestler.glad to see that along with the Miz. He is getting the recognition that he deserves.
matt morgan was solid in tna
Love It Wrestlelamia Bro.
3:39 missed time stamp Knonic
7:45 missed time stamp Mordecai
As soon as I saw the thumbnail of stuttering Matt Morgan, I new the title of this video should have been changed to '10 Wrestlers the WWE dropped the ball on'
I did prefer Matt Morgan's TNA run, much better, though I wasn't offended by his WWE run, best bit was the short lived heel stable with Lesnar, Big Show, A-train, & Nathan Jones though for some reason the most memorable bit was the 5 huge guys beating up Shannon Moore each week.
I met Matt once and he was great, really seemed a good spirited fan friendly guy, hope he was like that with everybody who met him.
Were gonna see Jade Cargill on one of these lists
The Blueprint was a star
Matt Morgan was awesome in TNA
Morgan was a stud.
Ron killings is the man of a thousand gimmicks
Henry was just green/needed reps
Kronik were just bad...and neither were rookies
Jones waa better as an actor/stunt guy
Kevin thorn was solid/not great but decent
The stuttering Matt organ used to piss me off lol
nah i loved matt morgan in tna but i never knew he was in wwe😭
They really never gave this wrestler a chance
