Kanyon's spirit lives on in his good friend, Brian Cage who actually did don the Mortis gimmick while Chris was thinking about coming back.

[@bwestacado9643]

Mortis was one of my favorite gimmicks. I am a gaming nerd, so him and Glacier had me lol. Kanyon was fun to watch

[@bigmike2464]

I had the pleasure of meeting Kanyon when he was still mortis in WCW. One night in Dayton when he was with Clark(( Wrath)). Both nice guys, and Kanyon was nice and buzzed on Crown and Coke

[@sohambanerjee417]

Perry Saturn is such a great pick! He had one of the best movesets, could work any style and had underrated charisma. It's a damn tragedy how life worked out for him but he is definitely a legend in every way!

Him getting over with a mop in WWE says a lot about him.

[@Biffo316]

It's a shame what happened to Saturn in years gone by. The guy was almost homeless at one point and now has some form of dementia from the drugs he was taking for so many years. Guy had the mic skills of a giraffe on xanex but his ring work was fantastic

They didn't want an hour long list mentioning all of the talent that should have been more prominent.

[@Lostmymind1]

This list is 10 guys. It easily could be 20 guys. It maybe could even go 30 guys. Imagine an entire royal rumble worth of guys that WCW dropped the ball on.

[@straingedays]

Oct.2000: I will never forget the end of wCw Thunder in Melbourne, Australia. Awesome won the Royal Rumble to become #1 contender for the Heavyweight World Title. As he celebrated, Goldberg entered the ring to do a "stare down" ...but the chants of Goldberg, Goldberg, switched to, Awesome, Awesome... Goldberg pointed at Awesome and gestured as if to say, the fans are right... Goldberg left the ring as the 10,000+ sell out crowd continued chanting Awesome. He looked so happy, the show closed with him alone in the ring, but the live event ended with him turning to the crowd before going backstage, as everyone was still chanting Awesome, Awwesome, Awwwesome!!

[@creoleDJ]

Honorable mention should go to Stevie Ray. Yeah, yeah, I know he was a big star with Harlem Heat but his singles run should’ve been much better than it was..

[@jackforster7783]

I always thought Adam Bomb had the makings of a huge star in WWE. He had everything Vince wanted in a top guy & then, all of a sudden, he fell off the face of the Earth. Crazy

@@petesmart1983 Wasn't very good? TF are you talking about? Dude was a huge guy doing innovative moves and flying around the ring like a cruiserweight.. He invented the Pump Handle Slam before Test took started using it in 1999.. His offense always looked great. And for a guy who was 6'6 - 6'7 290 pounds, he could spring board into the ring from the apron without touch the tope rope with his body.. Had they continued to build him up as Wrath, the Goldberg - Wrath match would have been pure money.

[@jesterr7133]

I appreciate the Blitzkrieg mention. That dude was amazing. I only saw him three or four times, and I still remember him over 20 years later. That is saying something.

Crowbar was in WWE for a bit in 2003, he had a few matches on Velocity. He was never going to get much of a push though.

That would've been a great team if they'd kept them.

[@charliefromstarkvillemissi1852]

I've heard it said that Brad Armstrong's major problem was that, on the mic, he tried to be his father Bullet Bob Armstrong. Jim Cornette said, Brad was one of the most naturally funny, quick witted guys in the locker room and he should have brought that out in his promos.

[@Lee82420]

Oh please he had a match with a jobber with Melena (Goldusts wife) and he nearly broke the guys neck, not only that he continued being stiff to the point even she had to tell him to lay off. He was so stiff he literally nearly killed the guy. He proved himself unsafe & unprofessional. His only claim to fame in WCW was being the first guy to last ten minutes in the ring with Goldberg. He was just a guy who followed raven around & looked tough. Besides that he did nothing noteworthy. No Us title run, no tag title run, no major storyline.

Clark was awesome! :) remember his Adam Bomb gimmick! 💪💪😎

I knew the knight stalker, when I was a child his mother worked at the same job as my father.

[@joelplatt3396]

Saturn is one of my all time favorites! Couldn’t agree more! Guy did EVERYTHING in the ring!!

[@bryanhall1548]

Big shoutout @ Wrestling Bios for spotlighting Das Wunderkind Alex Wright. You’re a jam up guy, Ryan. Same with Cultaholic, thank you lads for highlighting the underrated talent who should’ve gone further in WCW.

[@randy2152]

Wrath had a cool theme song at least

[@anthonyhardy2946]

He was a beast in 98

[@rayejohn79rj11]

Wrath turned into Adam Bomb 💣 which was a huge turn around

[@edstone9890]

....no? he was adam bomb first hahahahah

[@anthonymarshall8311]

Ya I just popped hearing Blitzkrieg on this list. I know everyone loves their Reys, Eddies, Kidman, and ummm...I don't know, El Dandys? But Blitzkrieg was my favorite.

[@ZOOTSUITBEATNICK1]

Smiley, Saturn & Morris are faves of mine...really enjoyed their work.

[@bobwallett]

Quit it with the breaks youtube

[@christopherlock4703]

out all those 10. scott norton, alex wright, bryan clark and perry saturn

[@chrisseymour426]

Scott Hall was on his way to the top in the WWF but was relegated to "Nash's little buddy" in WCW. Could've been a top guy easily. Vampiro, Sean O'Haire, Raven, all come to mind as guys I first became aware of in WCW that I feel like could've been big. Then there are the obvious ones who really did go on to stardom: Chris Jericho, Steve Austin, Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero.

[@daveh1065]

Also Rob Van Dam, Mick Foley, Undertaker, Road Dogg, Paul Wight, & more. Jericho & Raven always had some of the best segments on Nitro every week, must watch every week of them 2, didnt matter what was going down on Raw.

I Remember Bryan Clarke debuting as The NightStalker with Ox Baker. That could have been lethal but Clarke was still so very green at the time and Ox’s health was not so good. I saw and met both of them at the time I was a college student near Ox’s hometown in Sedalia Mo. Both we very nice and talked for quite a bit with them.

[@daveh1065]

Like his match with Sid Vicious, where Clark had Sid in a bear hug, for over 5 minutes throughout the match. Lol

[@mrchaotiq]

Ernest "the cat" Miller should be number 1 on this list. The guy had an abundance of charisma, great promos, great character work, his in-ring work wasn't the greatest but he wasn't unsafe either.

[@Cobane823]

Finally somebody that’s making some damn sense

[@euphoria1013]

I have an old Wrath figure! Had it since I was a kid. Anyone know what it would be worth? It has some wear but still has head, limbs and everything
