he won Tough Enough, went heel. got pwned by Benoit, Guerrero and Holly at the Rumble in his first match then vanished.
That's worse than Braden Walker.

Angle pretty much buries him in his shoot interview.

And don't forget the infamous kimura incident with Kurt Angle during the Tough Enough contest on Smackdown. By all accounts his shoot fighting credentials didn't transition into being a terribly good worker, which meant they couldn't capitalise on a huge worked shoot storyline. Though personally I think it was really unprofessional of Puder to take advantage of Angle in the way he did to try and get himself over in such a markish way, which probably explains how he was booked in the Rumble. He also had a terrible attitude when he was sent to OVW, and thus ended up getting released.

Puder wins Tough Enough, tries to get himself over and gets fired. Miz finishes second, and well we know how that turned out for him. "Had a Bad Day" was a TERRIBLE song. That's Daniel Powter, and I like that song.

Puder always makes it seem like it was a real shoot fight and he could have snapped Angle's arm if the ref didnt make the count. Dave Meltzer seemed to think so as well. I didnt see it. Angle says Puder wants to fight him in MMA. Puder is undefeated in strikeforce but Kurt asks "who has he beaten?" and i'll ask how many gold medals does Puder have? thats right, he doesent have any.

The only cool thing that came out of Puder's WWE career was his attire.
Come on! He had PUDER written like tha TAPOUT letters, how is that not cool?
Remember how Miz (Mike Mizanin) was in the finals with him. I remember I wanted Miz to win.

The incident with Kurt's pretty strange. Was it supposed to have been a shoot or a work? Who really knows? You would think that it was a work but, apparently, Kurt injured one of the guys during it rather badly, breaking some of his ribs. I don't know how accurate that is but that's the story that I've heard. So, after seeing this guy get his ribs broken through a take down, was Puder supposed to have just done nothing? I'm not sure.
Of course, Puder does come off rather poorly with the whole "I can beat up Kurt" thing but you can't fault a man for trying to raise some controversy up for a paycheck.

Here's Puder's side of the story
If you ask me, Puder is full of shit.

Oh no, the armbar he did in that segment was definitely a shoot. I was referring to the idea turning it into a storyline, and then the rest of what would follow would be a work (which Meltzer seemed to think would be huge - if done right - given the buzz it got amongst internet MMA fans). Sorry I should've made that clearer in my post. Angle discusses the problems with turning the incident into an angle in the video above though.

If I remember correctly, Mike Mizanin (the Miz) was over huge with the fans during that Tough Enough season. However, all the UFC goofs voted Puder up, so he ended up winning. All I remember from Puder's run was one or two skits of him backstage trying to hit on the divas... then he disappeared to never be seen again.

He reminds me of a crappier Dolph Ziggler for some reason.
Speaking of crap, is Puder in a thing for Wrestlecrap?
