>>6159273You have to think someone in creative floated some sort of crossover when he was white hot (if WWE/WCW paid for KISS, No Limit, ICP) but Vince doesn’t even know what a Burrito is despite eating them every week for lunch. I’m sure he didn’t have a clue who he was. But:
>Mega heel heat on the indies>Heel work so effective the marks literally tried to kill him>Absolute monster draw when he completed his face turn>was a yummy Indy darling who swerved the underground and went pop and… >worked the smarks>worked the marks>had a stable of jobbers he elevated to upper mid card status. Could have gotten anyone over at his peak>Like Brock and Scott Hall, wouldn’t have cared about jobbing because he could never lose his heat and oh yeah wrestling is fake you mark ass buster now pay me nigga>A God on the stick>Catchphrase and Ad-lib savant >instinctively understands carny mentality he even had a mixtape called Rap is like Wrestling>Moved tons of merch. Sold fucking quarter waters and carnied Coca-Cola out of millions>Shoot 6 foot and 220 that makes him at least 6’6 and 275 in the Fed>took over the main event scene in rap so thoroughly there was nothing left to do but fall back. Basically had a HHH reign of Terror except he earned it. Took his ball and went home when the contract wasn’t right>internalized that old Kevin Nash adage that nothing is real except the money and the miles>Kevin Nash was rumored to desperately want to work a program with him so he could internalize some other things>master at backstage politics >is legit funny and Vince loves funny blacks. R-Truth has a paycheck for life>Made himself a decent hand as far as workrate, smart enough to realize it didn’t mean shit compared to charisma and look Would have been kino in the attitude era with Russo booking Drive-by segments and bulletproof vests on a pole match. A Cena vs 50 program would have been dimes as fuck.
