He could have joined the DOA. Only if he took it over. From what I remember, that lineup wasn’t very impressive. Crush and the Harris Brothers, pretty lame. Add say Brian Clark for pre-Kronik teamup with Crush, just drop the Harris Brothers and Bam Bam as leader, it's a better Gang Wars faction.

Russo was a fan of Bam Bam. I suspect he could've found something for Bammer to do. But, he would've been jobbing more often than not, because that Era was stacked with talent.

I feel like he had two chances with WWF and really blew both of them. He came in almost immediately as a main eventer and after the knee injury when he was healthy he decided to go to JCP. So WWF is burned once, no pun intended. Only one prior who came in to such fan fare in the newer WWF I think was Macho Man. Then his 1990s wasn't exactly much to write home about. Other than the Doink and Tatanka feuds, he had no feuds. And those were kind of just thrown together to give them all something to do. I wouldn't count LT as a feud. And when things weren't going his way, he wanted out of his contract. Understandable but #2 burn for WWF. He wasn't exactly a guy WWF should trust with a long term contract and since he was around 10 years prior, he'd have some sort of ancient way about him unless he could reinvent himself. And with his look, I doubt he could. He's probably a guy who would have been better in the territory system 10-20 years earlier, going from place to place for 6 months to a year before moving on. I agree. Despite having a completely unique look and being damn good in the ring, he never caught on in WWF like he should have. No idea how he did in WCW or ECW. He did really well in ECW, winning the world title at one point and having a big Taz feud. WCW, he was tag champs a couple of times with DDP and Kanyon, had an alright Goldberg feud, firmly midcard but nothing to be ashamed of, either. Still, not like a huge leap over his WWF stuff.
