Spin: Failed pushes of the 10s... so far

[Mr.Moon]

I will never understand, what WWE has done with Cesaro or will do...

at least I hope, that is the same "plan" like Ziggler. Years of midcard / uppercard run and then the push, ...but after WM XXX ... it makes no sense at all.
I like the Kidd n Cesaro TT for what they do and may show - still pro wrestling, [amongst other things - match last at Payback ] ..
but never Forget, where Cesaro has to stand after all ...

.....

Ted Dibiase Jr

Hype up his debut
Win tag title in first match with cody
Put with cody and Randy orton to form legacy
Both him and cody beat DX in a Submissions Count Anywhere match at the Breaking Point ppv
They gave him maryse
Brought back virgil
They brought back the million dollar belt
They had him trying to do his dad gimmick with everyone has a price and trying to buy a guys eye

Nothing work just didnt have the charisma like his pops to do that gimmick

Not even sure if this "stint" counts as a "push"

 

[JerseyBoy23]

I REALLY THINK A LOT OF FANS ASSUMED IT WAS A WORK AND PART OF THE AUTHORITY ANGLE, BROTHER!

That's been the funniest part about the Network shilling. They got Trips and Steph talking about "buy the network for 9.99" while dissing main event faces in another breath.

Magnus
Matt Morgan
Drew Mcintire

This many failed pushes in less than 6 years

factor in the entire 2000s and the number skyrockets..especially 04-09

The real lesson though

Is that they WERENT really pushing these guys.

The only people since 2010 they've legit pushed

• Cena
• Orton
• Brock
• Mizark barely
• Seth
• Del Rio
• Bryan
• Punk
• Edge (might have years wrong)
• reigns

That's fukkin it. Everyone else (*and I reserve edit right if you all correct me) has been pushed as credible FODDER To those guys.

He was never gonna get the title...there is a concept of pushing within the midcard... but his ceiling was raw wwe title shot loss status.

He was never gonna get the title...there is a concept of pushing thru the midcaed but his ceiling was raw wwe title shot loss status.

i agree that was his ceiling but i always felt like they were trying to push him as some sort of new HBK but he was too vanilla and cardboard to make any of that seem like a reality...

if 10 years(or whatever number) ago you asked who out of Miz & Morrison was gonna be champ..i def wouldnt think Miz would even get a title shot at any point in his career.

sn: this run in Lucha Underground is more proof that Morrison is a C+ player at best...even on a lower scale with less competition he cant find a way to stand out.
