Billy Gunn screwed up 4 or 5 singles pushes by being absolutely awful.

Steiner in his last WWE run.
Jeff Hardy more recently.
Khali...but that was for just sucking.
Chris Masters to a lesser extent. He had potential to me.

Luger without doubt. WWF were priming him to be the next Hogan.

Khali...but that was for just sucking. For a guy who isn't exactly the greatest in the ring, he did win the main belt and was a major threat for a year. I'd hardly say he screwed up in fact I'd say he's done suprisingly well.

RVD. Nuff said This. I was so excited that summer, seeing my favorite wrestler finally on top of the company, and then he goes and speeds with weed in the center console. Seriously dude, don't carry it on the road with you.

Bobby Lashley and Brock Lesnar . . . at least now they can get beat up for real and get paid a fraction of what they would have made in a fake sport. But they're real athletes!

Actually, Brock makes more for fighting 3-4 times a year with the same amount of training and 300+ days at home a year than he did with the WWE. The verdict is still out on Lashley.

Billy Gunn screwed up 4 or 5 singles pushes by being Billy Gunn. This is how I feel about it.

Ya, didn't Brock make somewhere between 500K-750K for his Coture fight? And a 250k for each the Mir and Herring fights?

Jeff's unfortunate relapse, while it didn't get derailed completely, comes to mind for me. Though I'm glad to see he's surrounded on SmackDown by friends and family. Honorable mention goes to Chris Harris. While he hadn't yet received any TV time, showing up in neither the physical or mental shape to perform was the reason why he's a target for satire

For the time being, WWE still makes their wrestlers more in that area, I figured it would add up. I suppose, those, factoring in days at home and not on the road . . . Either way, the case still is: they screwed up their own WWE pushes. Their MMA/UFC pushes on the other hand . . .

No-one knows for sure what happened with Cade - didn't he have a seizure or something? Overdose. ...what now? This is the first time I've heard this. Speaking of Cade, he's wrestling all juiced-up in Japan's HUSTLE promotion.

Either way, the case still is: they screwed up their own WWE pushes. Their MMA/UFC pushes on the other hand . . . Brock Lesnar is actually a bigger box-office attraction than any one WWE wrestler right now including Cena, HHH or anyone else you got. Not to say that'll last forever, but right now, he's the hottest act in UFC and drawing better numbers domestically than WWE is worldwide bar Wrestlemania. As for f***ing up his push; hardly. In order for that to be the case, he'd have had to be in the gutter, and he never was. He was the top star on Smackdown for his entire tenure, and only dropped the belt one month before leaving the company. That's hardly suffering. He was treated as a star right to the end.

Arguably D-Lo Brown and Ahmed Johnson. D-Lo's was a freak accident, but apparently that was enough to justify burying him out of the company. Ahmed was done in by getting into fights backstage, leaving to help out his sister (I think), and later gaining too much weight and wrestling horrible matches in WCW. If it counts, Goldberg kind of hurt his push by injuring himself by punching a fist through a glass car window.

I wouldn't say Lashley screwed himself. I'd say WWE was ready to see him go. Why keep a juicehead that is so blah? He worked better on paper than in reality.
Jake the Snake seems like the guy that blew his leg off the most.
