"Oh he'll never be over"

I just read this from another site, I'm not sure if it's true or not but if it is, it's hilarious. About Batista:

"He tried out at the WCW Power Plant but was told he'd never make it in the wrestling business."

Now he's one of the most over superstars on the WWE Roster and the World Heavyweight Champion to boot.

What other misjudgments of talent or marketability do you recall WCW making?

I wish my sex life was like ECW, first you get a One Night Stand followed by 2 months of nostalgic orgasms and then 6 months of constant sucking.

If i remember right, WCW Fired stone cold because they said they couldn't market a guy wearing just black trunks & boots.

Wow they were fools.

And i think bishcoff said hhh had no talent and would never be anything in this business.

Quote from BBC Pictures:

"It is Rovers' Paul Ince left frustrated as he faces former Manchester United colleague Roy Keane as a manager for the first time"

This 3 days after the two met in the carling cup

They thought Schiavone was better than JR

They didn't sign RVD when they had the chance and he performed on TV for them

They let Jericho go without ever putting him above being a TV champion

They lost Guerrero, Benoit & Malenko over allowing Kevin Sullivan to book

According to Flair,, Hogan and Bischoff hated Arn Anderson. Eric said you could roll Arn in shit and he wouldn't draw flies.

Flair on Foley: "I admit it, I didn't know what to do w/ a 300 lb guy living in a homeless shelter. It took P.T. Barnum, in the form a McMahon, to take a guy whose claim to fame was his willingness to get thrown off a cage, turn him into Mankind, and make him into a champion." (195)

Paul Heyman didnt seem to have a problem getting Foley over either

In fact, Heyman didnt have a problem getting MOST people over. Hide weaknesses, emphasize strengths. Its really not that hard when you think about it.

Don't know if it's true, but the rumour about Al Snow was that Heyman told Vince that whoever he loaned him for ECW, he would get them over.
