I'm watching a 2000 RAW when he was teaming with Boss Man. What were your thoughts on this guy? Jim Ross seemed to think he was a future world champion. He was mobile for his size, but jeesh...talk about gimmick change overload.
I think he worked best as a tag team guy, especially in Right to Censor. But Stevie Richards made that gimmick work.

He could do some pretty impressive things in the ring, but had the charisma and appeal of a plank of wood.
His son Brooks Jensen has a lot more natural likability and is someone I think could get over if WWE ever actually gets behind him.

He always struck me as a Jim Ross hire or at least a guy Jim was very high on. They gave him multiple gimmicks or tweaks (Truth Commission, generic outfit Truth Commission), Bossman partner, RTC and B2 and nothing really worked. If B2 was over it's only because of Cena.

I remember him with Boss Man, in RTC, and as B2 with Cena. Not sure if he did anything else. RTC was def his most memorable run imo. Never would’ve guessed Brooks Jensen in NXT is his kid

Generic tall guy #5. I am sure he was a good human being, but what is the old expression...when you have a locker room full of giants, you really don't have any giants.

He needed to give me a beat.

Very agile for a guy his size. They could’ve given him a mouthpiece to overcome his lack of mic skills.

Loved his top rope ax kick and singles theme. Seemed destined for big things but could never get over and got stuck in two career killing stables.

They really wanted him to be a big deal but there was never any star power there. With a guy like Test, he had a great look and there were sparks of something early in his run, Bull had none of that, he was just tall and there.

He was a utility guy. I liked him fine, and there is always going to be a spot for guys like that, but he was never a big favorite of mine or anything.

His last WWE appearance was blaming John Cena about how much he was a failure at life so that's a thing lmfao

Iirc he was someone Cornettebigged up when he was on the creative - then when he was down in ovw

He was a late era Power Plant guy, but WWE. He would have fit very well with the likes of Chuck Polumbo. A guy who should be a no brainer when it comes to pushing him as a midcard threat, but he never figured out being entertaining. However, I loved using him in wrestling games.

That step up corner jumping clothesline was cool. That's about what I have to say about him.

I think Bull Buchanan is a cool name.

Is that the son he refused to let watch WWE because of how raunchy it was, which led to him joining RTC?

He needed to give me a beat. Wrong generic big guy....which isn't a big deal because I was going to respond with "he's had peas before" before realizing that was ANOTHER generic big guy from that same era.

Great on video games and had some cool moves, but couldn’t really put it together to be anything but a tag team fella
