>>13392566>By the time he came back in the 2000s his character was too goofy to take seriously as a champion anymore.Had he stayed in WWE continuously, I think he could have pulled a Mark Henry and let a couple of years pass with him slowly reforming the Goldust character into a legitimate threat worthy of at least a main event feud with a title shot, if not a title reign
Henry went from making out with grannies and trannies to beating Orton for the WHC and having some fans wishing that he beat Cena for the WWE title. That's a hell of a re-invention
