He was a big lad down in OVW, just shy of seven foot, off the back of a couple of photos of him in Powerslam I thought he'd be the next big thing, and he dropped off the face of the Earth. Jim Cornette did not think much of Russ McCullough...https://youtu.be/wQxf1PKi4qU?t=42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnum Milano Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I've watched a fair bit of Steve Bradley in the past couple of years for an ongoing project on another board and it really is a shame he never made it to the WWF. He was kept around for several years almost as the experienced developmental vet, worked in all the developmental territories (OVW, HWA, MPPW, MCW and IWA-PR), was easily always one of the best workers in whatever territory he was in, could get good matches out of guys who never really had them (Ali, Spellbinder). was used to get guys ready for the main roster, also helped out Victoria immensely when she managed him in Memphis, could talk, had seemingly everything going for him bar a body and a scuzzy look. Anyway, here is Robbie D who was a heck of an athlete with an insane vertical leap. Never made it out of development (MPPW and OVW) and passed away in 2002.

FUM Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I always thought Sylvester LeFort was a great manager in NXT. Then he changed to a wrestler and I lost interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made house show appearances and even turned up in Wrestling With Shadows and the Mayhem in Manchester show I believe. Brakus, albeit briefly, did make the main roster. He won a squash match on RAW, and was in the Brawl For All before he disappeared. He popped up in ECW for a TV Title match against Taz, and was promoted as a WWF talent there as part of that feud. I had that show on VHS, and remember not having a clue who this bloke was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Hannibal Scorch Posted December 13, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted December 13, 2018 I remember in the early 00's of two guys. Leviathan and Prototype. Lot of hype around them, then never heard of them again. Wonder what happened there, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
