      He was never over once in North America. He lived entirely off being "he was big in Japan". He had a great career in Japan, and in the US too, despite his relative lack of talent and noticeable lack of charisma.

    Randy Savage & Scott Norton would have been one hell of a tag team. Maybe even a faction of Savage, Norton, Rick Steiner and Perry Saturn. Throw in Gorgeous George with her shock of blonde hair contrasting all these dark-haired fellows, it'd be a great look. Could have called them The Madness or something similar. A team like that would have been chaos and destruction, along with a few championships...

    Scott could have definitely been pushed as a monster heel but most of his time in WCW he was simply an nWo lackey. He could have definitely been a good US Champion but as he said himself he got that there was so much political stuff to deal with it was probably never going to happen long term for him

      I felt the same way as Bobbysox86...He played a bully/henchman type character in the ring....and I was never a fan of those characters because I assumed their real personality was similar to that. After listening to Scott's interviews outside the ring you can tell he has more substance then just a bully@@jvharbin8337

    WCW and American wrestling in general really screwed up not utilizing Norton to his full potential. Feuds between Norton amd Steve Williams, Vader, & Sid Vicious wouldve been great. Also wouldve liked to see Scott Norton vs the Warlord.

    Not too many wrestlers will talk about how he was lied to about the programs he was supposed to work, then have the humility to say he understood why it happened.

    This is why you don’t give wrestlers creative control. If you have a booker that knows what they’re doing, you need to let them book. So many last minute decisions made for bad matches and stuff that just didn’t make sense.

    • @JWS1985
      @JWS1985 4 месяца назад

      I have a feeling you're correct. It was probably done because Norton was seen as an unknown and Hogan needed a group of friends to have his back against the Dungeon of Doom, jack. 🙄
      I don't believe Savage himself would've had any problems working with Norton.
