When did Waylon Mercy debut in the WWE and I remember when I was a kid he looked really menacing and was getting a decent push....and one fine day he disappeard. What exactly happened to him?

His vignettes started running in August of 1995 and he debuted in September.
He injured his back pretty early on, I think in a match with Diesel, an was forced to retire. But Dan Spivey was pretty well up there in age by that point, so it wasn't shocking really.

I was psyched for his debut and loved the IYH match against Savio Vega.

Yeah, he pretty much retired soon after wrestling Diesel that one time. It was a neck or back injury. I thought I heard him say or I read that he no-showed a Japanese tour and started missing dates too.

I seem to recall him having a pretty good match with Bret Hart around that time too. As I recall the finish seemed to be setting up a feud between the two, though I could be mistaken. It's been awhile after all.
