Why didn't this man keep his ego in check? He last what, 4 months?
I wanted to see a Juventud vs. Helms feud. Plus Rock eventually had to have had a run-in with him. Then Juvy in the rumble and getting a mania match finally.
I'd actually like to see him battle Rey, Shelton, Shawn, Triple H, Rob Van Dam to name a few.

He seemed to have bigger issues than his ego, which is a shame. Although half of what I liked about him was probably due to how batshit crazy he was...

I'd rather have had a healthy Brad Armstrong wrestling in WWE in 2005. Thanks, Juvi.

I mean even if he hadn't been crazy, pigeonholed as a cruiserweight I feel like his opportunities would have been limited regardless. Its not like they did much with any of the others who weren't named Rey Mysterio.

Its not like they did much with any of the others who weren't named Rey Mysterio. They probably would've pushed him along with Mysterio. He was still getting huge pops and was still insanely over. This was back when the WWE actually listened to the audience of course. |

I liked him a lot, but I had no idea of what he was really like. I do remember reading that Super Crazy and Psicosis didn’t like him. He also tried to do a 450 splash in his final match even though it was during that weird time when WWE banned all the cool high flying moves.

I liked him a lot in WCW, but also he was batshit crazy. Juventud was never going to stay in WWE long enough to face those names mentioned in the OP.

I didn't see anything marketable about him. Complete opposite of rey in that regard.

Are we really obsessing on someone being mentally unfit in...the WRESTLING BUSINESS?? Please show me where anyone in this short thread has "obsessed" over anything. There's a difference between discussing something and obsessing over it. And considering his out-of-the-ring antics left another wrestler crippled for life and caused havoc with law authorities numerous times, yes, his being mentally unfit gets to be part of the discussion. |
