I was wondering. Everybody knows X-Factor was a load but was it bad enough to be considered Wrestlecrap? Here's some evidence to why it should. *X-Pac was the leader. This guy's dumber than a pinball machine and he's put in charge. Great. *Albert was involved. Nuff said. *Justin Credible was the third wheel who had to have been thinking "You know, I was somebody in ECW." during all of this. *They were suppossed to be three thugs yet their entrance lighting was purple. *Their theme music was composed by none other than castrati-rock maestro Uncle Kracker. *No one gave two hoots.
What do you think? Crap or no crap?

They may not have had the worst theme music ever, but it was pretty damn close.

My personal opinion is that they weren't Wrestlecrap, but rather just a substandard group of average wrestlers.
I agree with this. Rule of thumb: If you are playing third banana to X-Pac and Albert, it's time to just give it up.

Before, the the Uncle Kracker theme they started off having some generic hip hop theme. It would start off "ya rollin' with the X-Factor....". The Uncle Kracker theme was hard to take seriously for a bunch of thug-like heel white guys.
I was never a fan of Justin Credible to begin with, but they never wrestled anyone of major importance except for the Dudleys in 6-man tag matches. The only other opponents I recall were Blackman and Sexay during a Heat match.
I remember back when Sunday Night Heat would feature a different WWF talent every week that X-Factor were the guests. At that time, X-Pac had just won the Light Heavyweight Title and Albert had recently won the IC title and Justin was being dissed throughout the episode for not winning some gold out of the group. Shortly thereafter, he dropped from the group to be a part of the Invasion angle. Overall, it wasn't wrestlecrap, in my opinion.

I thought that A-Train as the hip hop hippo was hillarious. i dunno why you guys hate X-Pac so much.
But A-Train < all hosses including Heidenreich (well maybe not Snitsky in a comical sense).

Heidenreich better than A-Train? I dunno...he seemed to be becoming a decent wrestler by the end of his WWE run.

Ughhh.. I hated that X-factor music... I always wondered why the heck A-train was with them. Human vaccum x 12? What X-factor really needed was a girl with them. Atleast it would give the crowd something to cheer about when they came out.

"I know you hate X-Factor but you ain't gotta look at me like that."
Uhh yeah... that sucked.
I liked Justin Credible though.

The only good thing is they proved by saying "we came here to rip ass" will not make you over.

Never hated X-Pac myself, Thought he was still better than a good deal of the roster, even being unmotivated and having personal problems. Another problem is they never gave him any change- He was the same guy when he came in in March 98 until he was released. No real character development, and his character wasn't much good without DX.
Do dislike Albert, bored me and he got constant pushes.
Wouldn't consider X-Factor wrestlecrap because they were not horrendously bad. Besides the Music, they were an OK mid card faction.
Wrestlecrap is typically stuff so bad is humorous. X-Factor wasn't laugh out loud bad- it was just average.

the best part about that X-Factor hosting Heat thing was that at the end, Pac and Albert gave Credible a cardboard cutout of the WWF title since he didnt have a belt. lol.
and the X-Factor/Uncle Kracker song went something along these lines (dont quote me): "yo you dealin with the x-factor, i got everything i ever wanted and i'll never give that back, i know you hate the x-factor, but you aint gotta look at me like that, nah you aint gotta look at me like that. " couldnt tell you the rest, it went way faster, thats just the opening part, the song is on the mission impossible 2 soundtrack, except it says fact or factor, where in this song it says x-factor, clever editing!

X-Factor qualifies as wrestlecrap. They weren't all that good. Waltman is the only one still wrestling i think, Albert, aka A-train is somewhere. Justin Credible is mopping up floors at Wendy's

Why does everyone hate Sean Waltman nowadays? 10-12 years ago everyone loved him because he could fly around the ring like we haven't seen before and then all of a sudden he is hated because he changed his style. I want to know why everyone hates on Waltman when he broke his neck for us numerous times.
