10 WWE Plans That Didn't Work Out

[@jazztom86]

I liked Bobby Lashley. He was a cool dude and had a cool finisher. Was nice to see the dominator, a move that hadn't been done since Farooq.

[@joeycates1001]

Right wrestler right finisher,?! right good wrestler don't know how to use a wrestling move had a finisher. Lashley is/was a good wrestler. Did a wrestling move has a finisher, but would it work has a finisher in TNA/ impact wrestling? Or in ROH? I don't even remember if he used it in TNA.

[@woobgamer5210]

I think the reason why WWE has been pushing Reigns (which they're still doing) is because they need a new John Cena, who was the new Triple H, who was the new The Rock, who was the new Shawn Michaels, who was the new Hulk Hogan, who was the new Harley Race.

The biggest plan that never worked out or will never work out will always be roman

[@DemonKingHiei]

Not even close

[@vandercudo]

But he IS working... I'm getting a bit annoyed at how many times i have to repeat myself, but he's still getting the loudest reaction of any superstar, besides they are really not concerned with adults or teens liking him, as long as kids do...

[@shoaibhaider4369]

3s10 that's not the type of reaction WWE wants...

[@vandercudo]

Shoaib Haider What makes you think that? WWE is no longer in attitude era, it's in PG, meaning they are catering to a younger audience, and while booing him may not be perfect from their perspective, he is still a draw... It's not like that people who boo him stopped buying tickets, less we'd hear no boos... In the end he has the loudest reaction, AJ styles, or finn balor don't get even close to that, even though i hate him being pushed by WWE, even i can see why they are doing so!

[@DemonKingHiei]

Shoaib Haider that’s very hypocritical, don’t try using that shit to justify it when fans will cheer heels rather then boo them

[@girlgarde]

Luger should've won the world title at Summerslam 93 to keep his momentum going only to drop it back to Yokozuna on on an episode of Monday Night Raw in December 1993 thanks to Ludvig Borga. That way, a Luger/Borga feud is created while Yokozuna goes on to face the Undertaker at the 1994 Royal Rumble.

[@superrobz]

WWE logic: fans are booing the shit out of Roman Reigns for the 4th year in a Row Vince McMahon: But he’s big and sweaty let’s push him anyway❤️😍 😞🔫

[@vandercudo]

Well they still make more noise for him, than for anybody else, and they aren't really concerned if adults like him, as long as kids do...

[@EdenNeedsAYoutubeHandle]

He brings in the money, the audiences make the most noise for him, he's a draw. Plain and simple.

[@superrobz]

eden he really isn’t a draw though: Austin, Rock, Foley, Hogan (as shit as a performer as he was), Bret... they were guys who drew Reigns is not that guy. When I go to a WWE event the first person that comes into my mind isn’t Roman Reigns

[@vandercudo]

Rob Picken But the days of Austin and Rock are over... It's pretty much a completely different product nowadays, and while he may not be a draw compared to them, he's pretty much on level of Cena... But just out of curiosity, if you were Vince, who would you push?

[@EdenNeedsAYoutubeHandle]

"Draw" means he sells tickets and makes money. Roman Reigns has consistently been top 3 merch seller in the company for over 4 years now, at times even outselling John Cena. Take a step outside of the internet echo chamber of the IWC (mostly consisting of 20-30 year old men) and it's easy to see Roman Reigns has a strong audience.

Kill me but I honestly enjoyed watching Lashley in 2007. Was he still a bit green? Sure, but he was certainly a breath of fresh air with the Cena dominated Raws and Batista dominated SmackDowns. Always thought the dude got a bad rap.

[@elcactusdelamuerte506]

Sole Search He had no charisma, was green in the ring and was being forced down our throats like roman is today with wrestlers the fans wanted like cm punk being put aside for something they either couldn't give a shit about or hated. Yes he had potential (and I quite liked the guy if only he was given more time and was booked right), but his run at the time gets the poor treatment it deserves.

If they had done 'The Lex Express" when Lugar 1st came to the WWE it would have taken off big time I think. Instead they bring him in as a heel and give him a narcissistic gimmick "The Narcissist"... Lugar was always bad heel. He could never get the heat a heel needed. He could have had some decent feuds with Perfect, Savage, Owen and Brett Hart, Taker and even Terry Taylor and Jerry Lawler at the time.

Im gonna go on a limb here. Had Ultimate Warrior had heels with the type of heat Hogans heels had he would have been a more legitimate successor to Hulkamania. Imo Warrior did a great job with the torch.

[@poopsyko]

Dan Cook I agree and the Warrior said it himself he had no one to wrestle,he’d wrestled everyone at that point(everyone who was credible)Vince could of worked a bigger program with him and Savage though,that could of went somewhere

[@nickm393]

In 1990 and 1991 the Ultimate Warrior was just as big as Hogan, if not a little less. I was a little kid back then, I remember. I think it was the lack of quality heels to wrestle that hurt him..I don't know. But Warrior was huge back then.

[@kennedycalderone9608]

Honestly, the fact that Bobby Lashleys push didn’t work out really bums me out. I was in my prime wrestling days as a kid when the Battle of the Billionaires was a thing and bobby was the man to me! Loved everything they did with him, at the time. He deserves a really solid WWE run.

The only reason i could see why Reigns is still being pushed is that he is selling allot of merch. People may be booing him but still buy his shirt.

[@SLJR16]

You could also include Jinder’s push. They were trying so hard to get into the Indian market and pushed him to the moon. It ended up backfiring though because not even the Indian fans supported Jinder lol. His title reign was kind of bad and then they took the belt off of him on an episode of Smackdown to avoid embarrassing him against Lesnar. I’d say the Jinder experiment was a failure.

[@thatguyfromak5190]
