Billy Gunn's Singles Push
Was it really worth the effort?

Felt like he didn't even try. He was never that good on the mix and his in-ring stuff was mediocre, but entertaining.

Am I wrong?

It's time to make TPWW MEAT again!

Quote:
Unlike traditional grills which cook food from a single, direct heat source, the Pit Barrel® Cooker’s cylindrical shape and “Hook-and-Hang” method places the food in the center of the action, heating the meat from all sides at once, producing consistently great-tasting, perfectly cooked meat every time.

Also have some popcorn.

Failed to get over. Had a moment when he first became the one with his program with the rock where you thought he might get hot but never did.

Love his 2001 theme.



So good. Can't really say I'm terribly surprised he never got a main event push though.

Are we talking his 2001 run or the 1999 Mr. Ass: King of the Ring run?

1999 was the only real chance he had.

Great athlete and by all accounts worked hard in the ring but i think something was missing upstairs. He wasnt without the physical attributes, thats for sure. Feel like adopting the rocker dropper as a finisher didnt help.

He was good, but just wasn't main event material. If he didn't have an ass-gimmick during the attitude era he'd probably have faded from our screens a long, long time ago.

It was worth a shot with how bereft of top talent they were becoming in mid-late 99. He just wasnt the right guy at all. That year they even tried with guys like Val Venis, Al Snow, D'Lo Brown, and Bob Holly, but had to wait for Angle, Jericho, and the emergence of the Hardys, Dudleys, and E+C at the end of the year to really kick start some things.
