Is Christopher Daniels the biggest American wrestler to not have a wwe or wcw run?

He was supposedly going to be The Higher Power but Vince said he was too small to be convincing

This is one of those things I want Carder to shoot on. It's parroted constantly and legitimately doesn't seem to make any sense.

They were also flirting with the idea of doing Jake The Snake as the Higher Power but he was too unreliable and a drunk.

He was already working dark matches for WWF, and Russo thought he was getting attention on the indies so suggested Daniels to Vince. Once Vince saw him he killed the idea and Daniels quit working dark matches

Wouldn't Omega be a much bigger wrestler to not have a run in either promotion? He's definitely more popular than Daniels today.

>Russo has acknowledged this, saying, “It was supposed to be Christopher Daniels. What happened was, Chris Daniels was very, very hot on the independent scene back then, and you know, he was the Fallen Angel. I pitched the idea that it be Chris Daniels. And bro, what happened was Vince had no idea who Chris Daniels was. So, Chris Daniels shows up at TV to do this, and Vince goes to me, 'Who is that?' I'm like, 'Vince, that's Chris Daniels.' Vince took one look at him and said, 'That's not the hype. We're not doing that.' That's when, at the last minute, 'It was me all along.' It was supposed to be the Fallen Angel… Nothing against Chris. It was a size thing. You know Vince could not get past the fact that he was small.”

Vince's height autism is weird, I get it for wrestlers but the higher power shtick was for a mouthpiece. Daniels didn't have to look 'credible', just had to cut spoopy promos and wear a robe.

right. someone just said he was working there around the time as a jobber. daniels probably started this rumor himself. i cant think of any little guy vince pushed during the attitude era besides the radicalz and jericho. plus daniels was terrible of the mic

No, it's obviously Bruiser Brody, as >>11438899 said. Brody was actually a draw. Daniels has never been a draw.

If you want modern wrestlers, then the answer is the Briscoe Brothers. This will never happen now for obvious reasons.

ok so russo showed vince a wrestler he thought vince could use but vince had never heard of daniels before. so this means daniels was never even thought of as being the higher power since vince had no idea he even existed. vince is in charge not russo

Russo was the biggest voice on creative and brought him to TV to do it and Vince agreed until he saw he was a manlet, so yes he was thought of

Considering he at least made it to the arena I'd hazard to guess Russo showed Vince some picture of Daniels in full gothic garb with his cool sunglasses and all that, lookin' like dimes, then when he saw his 5"6 ass in person he changed his mind.

vince didnt agree. re-read it. russo pitched the idea vince had no idea/had never seen or heard of daniels before. as soon as daniels showed up and vince saw him vince said no. that in no way means he was being considered for the higher power role by vince or anybody with any real say about it
