 What's good Josh Boros back again with another video. So when you check out 10 WWE signers that were 100% pointless. Sometimes WWE gets a big name or or a name that, you know, a lot of people may know in the independent team or on the Indies and they come to WWE and they don't even utilize them correctly. And at some point you kind of start to question. What was the point of actually bringing them in? They didn't even utilize them correctly. They didn't build a proper feud with them. No one like the casual fan didn't care because they didn't really buy into the character because they weren't properly promoted. It's a it's a multitude of things, but a lot of times it comes down to creative and how they're presented and if people actually give it down. You know, so we're going to check out some of these moments where people were just brought in. You know, it's just like what was the fucking point? Appreciate all love and support you guys have shown on the channel. Let's get right into this one. When WWE signs a wrestler, the aim is always to maximize their potential and hopefully reap the financial rewards of their investment. While some WWE signings pay off in a huge way with names such as Brock Lesnar, AJ Styles and even Logan Paul all exceeding expectations. Sometimes signings just don't live up to their potential. Whilst on occasion, this can be the wrestler's fault as a wrestler in question just as and as good as the WWE thinks they are. It could also be down to WWE being unable to book and present the wrestler correctly. My God, you're saying now is wrestling me a look set 10 of the most pointless WWE signings ever.

Number 10, The Public Enemy. In 1999, WWE decided to sign the tag team known as The Public Enemy. The duo consist of Johnny Grunge and Rocko Rock, what well established in the wrestling world. So this was a great opportunity for WWE to elevate their tag division. Unfortunately, their run in the company would be a total flop as they weren't accepted backstage in this stem from the fact that the two chose to sign for WCW over WWE in the mid 90s. A brief run fell apart when during the match with the APA, the two decided they wanted to change the match finish just before they went through the curtain. This bold move didn't sit well with anyone, especially the APA who virtually turned the match into a shoot. Vince McMahon's reaction to The Public Enemy's actor defiance wasn't great either as McMahon reportedly was done with the duo following the incident and it would be released shortly after. Number 9, Karma. Yeah, they were beating the crap out of their life. Damn, they're legit. When WWE decided to sign Karma, aka Awesome Kong, fans were elated. Yeah, Karma was a massive star in TNA and everyone hoped that WWE would finally take the women's division seriously. Yeah, WWE's credit. They managed to legitimately create a buzz, not just around Karma, but also the entire women's division. However, it quickly fell apart. She would announce her pregnancy on Raw and this meant that she was forced to take a step back from the squared circle. And sometimes stuff like that happens and that's unfortunate and that kills a momentum. You know what I'm saying? Like sometimes someone gets injured as soon as they come in and have WWE has big plans for them and then sometimes situations like this where she ended up getting pregnant and she can't wrestle. So and then that just killed all the momentum for her. But I do remember they were making her a very big deal vignettes and everything when she came out there. I was like, oh, I'm here for it. She doesn't look like all the other dainty girls out there, the dainty women out there. You know what I'm saying? The bikini clad women. No, she looked like she was going to kill you and I was there for it. I was all for this. It was just unfortunate. She ended up getting pregnant. Such a shame as Karma's exciting run had to come to an end and whilst fans were happy for her. Yeah. I also hope that she would eventually return for another full-time run, but this never materialized. Oh, no, it's what was asked. I was always hoping she would come back to the full time run, but this. Uh, if you don't mind me asking, is it actually true that you were granted release from WWE? I miss you so much. Yes, it was. It doesn't mean I'll never be back. Never materialized. Yeah, man. Number eight, Giants Silver on paper. It looked like Giants Silver was going to be a great signing for WWE. He had the size, presence and Vince McMahon was no doubt going to try to make him a main event attraction. You become a member of the oddities faction, but whenever he wrestled, he was quickly exposed as he was appalling in the ring. Yeah, no notable matches. Any lack confidence when he was forced to do anything physical. He'd be released in 1999, making Silver's run a complete waste of time. Number seven, Eva Marie. Eva Marie's first run in WWE didn't exactly like the world on fire. No, she was poor in the ring and while she was somewhat over with the audience, it would certainly be argued that she had go away heat. Years after her initial run at WWE made the bold and controversial decision to rehire Marie. It wasn't clear why this was happening as the women's division was filled with outstanding workers, and Marie wasn't going to elevate the division in any way, shape or form. No, fans hoped that she had improved in the ring, but they were all wrong. And if anything, due to the improvements in the women's division, her weaknesses came up even more noticeable. Yeah, she had some atrocious matches and she even managed to have a SummerSlam match with Alexa Bliss, which was found at the top of several worst matches of 2021 lists. She would eventually be released by the company, leaving everyone to collectively wonder why this second run needed to happen. Number six, Lord Tensai. And due to Matt Bloom, that got caught up on the looks. She has the look. She just didn't have the in ring ability. We knew that events knew that, but you know, making a name for himself in Japan. WWE decided to bring Bloom back into the company in 2012. This was quite a little Lord Tensai. So for the most part, his prior work as Albert and a train would get retconned and instead, WWE acted like Tensai was a completely new entity. This character flopped almost immediately and even though WWE allowed him to propel up the card, defeating legends such as John Cena, the crowd wanted no part of Tensai's main event push. He'd be heckled with chance of Albert and this led to WWE having no choice but to derail his push. Just a few months into Tensai's return, he would be relegated to the lower mint card and before fans knew it, he was in a comedic tank team with Brody's Clay. I mean, that just says everything, isn't it? Number five, Singkara. If it is 2011, a WWE held a press conference in Mexico City to announce the signing of Singkara. Singkara, who used the name of Mystico in other promotions, was a big deal within the wrestling world and WWE hoped that he could potentially be the next Rey Mysterio. No, Singkara had problems almost immediately in WWE as he couldn't grasp the WWE style. This led to a lot of his matches having severe botches and the casual WWE audience was struggling to see what all the fuss was about. Yeah. There were pair Singkara matches with talented wrestlers such as Chava Guerrero and even Daniel Bryan, but the connection with this audience simply wasn't there. They persisted with Singkara's push, but over time, he seemed to stop caring and his in-ring work seemed to regress even further. Yeah, I'm not going to lie to you. The lighting stuff was, I mean, it was, it was overdone. I was like, okay, all right, you can chill out with the dimmed out, the dimming of the lights and then come on, stop it. Same thing with the hell in the cell when they had like the red lights, like you can't see shit. The cell is red, the lights is red. Stop outing all the funny lightings to certain matches. Just let the matches be what they are or certain gimmicks. Eventually he was moved down the card and by 2014 he had parted ways with the company. Yeah. He likes to claim that WWE wouldn't let him keep his original style and this was a major factor in why the character flopped, but WWE were yet to give up on the Singkara persona that they created as they decided to give the character to Hewneco who had gone to portray the character for several years. Number four, buff Bagwell. Buff Bagwell had all the tools to be a major player in WWE. Following WWE acquiring WCW in 2001, Bagwell was a hot commodity for WWE as the WWE fanbase wanted to see Bagwell on Raw and Smackdown. Unfortunately, his run was unbelievably bad as he rubbed virtually everyone up the wrong way. He would have a main event match on Raw with Booker T and the match was so poorly received, heavily influenced WWE's decision to cut ties with Bagwell. He would also have a confrontation with Shane Helms, which Bagwell was said to have instigated. Helms had fit into the WWE family perfectly and was said to be insanely popular backstage, so naturally Bagwell was going to take most of the heat. Yeah. According to Jim Ross on his podcast, Bagwell just wasn't the right fit for WWE. Well, he buffed us, he thought he had a higher opinion of his work than Vince did. And you know, I've become the bad guy because I'm the middleman, I'm the guy that delivers the bad news or the good news at times, but I don't hold any animosity to this day on Mark Bagwell whatsoever. I saw where he had a car wreck and it was involving, I think drinking maybe. He just wasn't a good fit Conrad and he, you know, that partying lifestyle. We're trying to distance ourselves a little bit from that if we could. And again, you know, Vince just didn't see the money in Mark that Mark saw it himself. And that's one of those things. It really comes down to Vince seeing the money in you. You can see it and you should see the money in yourself. But Vince, you have to convince him of why he should invest in you more. Why should you get more TV time? Why should you be at the top of the card? He has to see it. Once he sees it in the fans and in the in the in the sense of people wanting to see you more people requesting it. Then he'll. All right. What you want? What we need to do? That's just this is all about business, bro. It's nothing personal. He wants to make the most money possible and he wants the stars that's going to make the most money possible. That's what he cares about more than anything else. Are you entertaining? Can you make me a lot of money? All right, cool. Let's get you in. Number three, Nathan Jones. Nathan Jones was given every tool imaginable to succeed upon debuting. It was immediately thrown into a storyline with the Undertaker. And this was a clear sign that wwe expected big things from Jones. It's what he meant. The problem was that Jones just wasn't great in the ring and whilst he had the size he liked the charisma and fans just cheered him due to him being associated with taker. Yeah, Jones was initially going to be set for a major WrestleMania match as he was going to team with the dead man to take on big show and a train at WrestleMania 19. However, due to Jones not being ready for such a high profile matchup, wwe ruled it would be better off if Undertaker wrestled in a handicap match instead. Wow. Eventually, Jones had enough of the wwe lifestyle and during a tour of Australia, Jones decided to stay home and never return to the company. Damn. He had wasted so much of their resources on him and it's crazy to think how much the Undertaker rub would have benefited someone else who had genuine love and passion for pro wrestling. Number two. Yeah, that's kind of crazy. He said, I ain't coming back. Damn. Scott Steiner. In 2002, wwe decided to re-sign Scott Steiner. Steiner had made a name for himself as a single star in WCW and he was arguably one of the biggest names in pro wrestling. Steiner would instantly be positioned in the main event scene and wwe saw dollar signs with a few with Triple H over on Raw. Yeah. Unfortunately, the feud flopped in the worst way imaginable. Steiner's in ring work had regressed to such a level that he could barely have passable matches and the crowd began to vocally turn on him. Steiner would go from having a back to back world title matches on pay-per-view to being absent from WrestleMania 19. Following WrestleMania, Steiner would be cemented in the mid-card where he would remain until he departed wwe the following year. And number one, Kane Velasquez. Oh, he definitely deserves to be at the top of this list. Kane Velasquez was doomed from the start as they made a complete blunder during his debut. He would debut just after Brock Lesnar had squash Kofi Kingston to win the wwe title and this was a move which made fans insanely angry and wwe believed that debuting Velasquez would make everything okay. Fans had no interest in seeing the former UFC star and they were collectively bewildered why Velasquez was even signed to the company. He would face Lesnar at the crown jewel pay-per-view and it lasted just over a minute before he tapped out. He was immediately released meaning he only had one official match on pay-per-view. At one stage wwe were planning to bring in Velasquez as a surprise in the Royal Rumble but in a bizarre move Velasquez decided to tell everyone what wwe were planning so they had no choice but to scrap the plans. He was a complete waste of time and money and it highlighted how out-of-touch wwe management were by thinking that fans wanted to see Velasquez as a top star in the company but there you have it folks 10 of the most point definitely deserves to be at the top of the list. I mean they completely destroyed Kofi and everything that he had earned and worked for only to bring in Kane Velasquez and they thought people were gonna be like oh this is awesome no this was not awesome and it was a waste of time the fact that he even told that he was going to be in the Royal Rumble was a waste of time it was a waste of time it was pointless once again I understand Kofi losing the brock even though some people were like some people I know would be like no that doesn't make sense it shouldn't be happening I get it at the time that was gonna happen I understood that when they made the match most likely Kofi's not winning but he deserved better he deserved to have some type of offense and they jobbed him out only to have him feud with Kane Velasquez it was pointless so it definitely deserves to be at the top of the list comment down below let me know some other pointless WWE signings that wasn't on this list there's a few that you just have to kind of question yourself like what was the point of even signing them they didn't add nothing to the company at all let me know if they weren't on this list down below I appreciate all the love and support relative to 150K and I'm still here and I'm speaking to YouTube wrestling champion of the world appreciate y'all kicking in with me see y'all next one peace
