Bad News Brown could have been the biggest heal, after "ghetto blasting" bret hart, after a battle royal but he just fell off after bret beat him...actually did they even wrestle after that? Razor Ramon was also very underatted in the wwf. After having one of the best matches ever, with a ladder and shawn michaels, he didn't even get a heavyweight championship title...no wonder he jumped ship to wcw.

Barry Windham - I would have loved to have seen Barry get a good solid singles push - he was so damn good
I would have liked to have seen Terry Taylor used a little better aswell

Owen Hart (RIP) was definitly underrated, I think that before he died, he had it in him to be a world champion, but was never given the right push in that direction, which is really very sad.  |

I agree with you on the "Model" Rick Martel, he should of and could of easily been as big as Bret Hart or Shawn Michaels. His tag-team was just as strong as Bret and Jim the "Anvil" Hart. Why didn't they break off Rick Martel in singles competition so strong instead of Bret? Rick was funny too with his Cologne Spray called, "Arrogance" and all his great lines. |

Yeah poor Ric never really got a proper chance. Maybe an intercontinental run would have been fantastic as would a proper feud with Bret Hart. I never understood why Tito Santana got chance after chance i never rated him very much. |

The Honky Tonk Man was tight, he always made me laugh. When he smasked the guitar on Wrestler's heads I think that was a good finishing move, very orginal too. I thought he got respect, he had/was in some big matches.

I think they should of built up "Leaping" Lanny Poffo more, he had some good moves and was one of the first Wrestlers to do flips and aerial moves. He was tight and funny giving the fans frisbees and making fun of the opponents in rhymes before the match, come on now, his rhymes were tight. They always had him tag-team with scrubs, he should of at least tagged with his brother Randy a few times.

I think Owen Hart & Billy Gunn were underrated in the WWF/E. I really enjoyed their matches and styles and should of got the push they so rightly deserved. But unfortuantely The great Owen Hart has passed away and Billy Gunn has jumped ship to TNA so the WWF/E never gave them their chance

Rick Martel - he had all the tools to be a top star but he got saddled with that Model gimmick and they never seemed to want to put him in the main events which is sad when you consider his skills.

On Wrestlefest '88 and at Many MSG shows. I'd have to say that the Big Bossman could have been pushed well, if they would've had him take the IC title. Hell, even if it was a week long run, the Bossman could draw. |

Koko B. Ware was the ultimate glorified jobber. He sold like a madman and made so many stiffs look good. He deserved better.
Bad News Brown was severely misused. He totally should have had a PPV run with Hogan. I think it was just timing with him. Dibiase, Savage, and Andre were ahead of him on the food chain at that time...way too crowded
