According to Prichard, Vince Russo once pitched the idea of Test becoming part of D-Generation X in the late '90s. The oft-maligned writer commented that Test was the same size as Kevin Nash, but several years younger, and would eventually be better than him in the ring, but Shawn Michaels and Triple H hated the idea.
DX's founding members told Russo that Test was "no Kevin Nash," while Prichard, who was doing talent relations at the time, wanted him to go to developmental. Bruce felt that he wasn't ready for a prime time role despite his obvious potential, but was unaware of Russo's proposal when it was initially made.
Prichard stepped in to nix the idea, and Test eventually aligned himself with The Corporation, then actively feuded with DX and Triple H throughout 1999 and beyond.
