I wish injuries hadn't held back Tazz. If he had gotten neck surgery, he probably would of gone further. Maybe not much further, but we'll never know. Being only 5"8 held him back more. Even in one of the Wrestlecrap books I read it made some mention about Vince not pushing him because he wasnt a big guy and Vince loves big men or something to that effect. Injuries sminjuries. We all know Vince has a big man fetish and I believe thats why he never gave Tazz a proper push he deserved. Breat Hart got the push because they had to push a "non steroid guy" because of the trials and bad image at the time and even Shawn Michaels wasnt as small as Tazz is.

I loved Lesnar's debut also.
About a month prior to Lesnar debuting on TV, I saw him in a dark match at a Raw show. In the dark match, he killed Spike Dudley and I remember being impressed. Me and my buddy who was with me both figured Lesnar had potential to be one of the next top stars.
Sure enough when he made his TV debut, I remembered who he was and I was totally into it.

I missed that episode of Raw, and when I read the results online the writer described Brock as looking like "Crash Holly on massive amounts of steroids."

Granted, being short didn't help, but it wasn't his only issue.

Brock's debut was pretty vicious. He had a good couple weeks there where he just destroyed everyone.

The clothesline, and powerbombs to Spike were amazing! Didn't he have a Singapore Cane match with Dreamer without bothering to use the cane once? That sounds right. There's nothing more bad ass than not needing the weapon that is supplied to you in a match.
