Exactly, dude talking Hassan was working fro Vince for years.
Not to mention that Orton and Tista were pushed while they still sucked.

We need to start that Bring Back Muhammad Hassan Movement on Twitter!
He played a Muslim American bashing Americans in post-911 USA...now, I'm not going to fully discredit him, because he was a very natural mic talent who worked the gimmick very well, but it just came at a time when people were still driving around with American flags on their car pretending to be patriotic and shyt. I buy potential - I just think people go overboard with how good he actually was.
I'd guess you're in a category of your own squeezing out 5. Nobody else even tried to name 1. I can't recall any single thing that happened in any of those matches or how they ended without hitting that Youtube. I do remember how the Hogan/Eugene/Hassan joint played out at Mania, though.
In that short time, he was put in some big time situations though. Matches that nobody else but TGO even remembers. And his work, in and out of the ring, shouldn't be compared to the greatest of all time - which kinda goes back to my original point in the thread. Maybe he would have put on classics...maybe he would have put on duds.

It's crazy he was going to Win the World Heavyweight Championship..
WWE dropped the ball with this.
He's young, hope he comes back. He'd get major pop.

lol at trying to make a martyr out of him.The reaction and position he was handed had him feeling himself so much that he thought he could make it in hollywood..If you mean as a wrestler, yes, he wasn't that good yet, but at that time they were already starting to phase out being good in the ring as something that mattered.
The character was gold and Vince backed down on it (though it was still his fault for greenlighting that stupid masked men thing). Can't blame Hassan for not wanting to deal with an industry that won't even ride for you at all when you do everything right.
at thinkin he would walkout because the company chose to keep him off tv over that stunt..Dude wasnnt even serious about wrestling like that
Yup
Nobody wants to remember this tho
@ dude's entrance theme.
Off the subject but how about a cara / del rio match for SS. Bulld up the Rich snob shytting on the lil street urchin . Sort of like the Rey feud but with no horrible Rey promos
I fukked w/ the Hassan character... I just think dude was a victim of circumstance. Can't even say it was the E's fault for that masked man/terrorist shyt. It was recorded two days prior and just happened to air on the same day as a terrorist attack. Had that happened any time before then, no one would've even said shyt about it.
He was one of the real heels though- he wasn't tryin' to be cool, be funny or none of that shyt... they def. woulda gotten some years out of him as a top heel. Hard to tell where he'd be now tho'... 9/11 was a hot minute ago, and both of the major enemies have been killed so it's a lil' harder to keep heat like he had in '05. But gotdamn, was he drawin' heat.

He was okay, but he was still really green.
I do agree that he started to fall for his own hype though, like when he got into an argument with Eddie telling him to stop using the camel clutch
It would have been interesting to see how far he would have went if they kept him on the roster. Gotta say, it was a pretty bush league move by WWE to not edit that segment out of SD after that incident overseas.
