He wrestled on the last episode of Thunder, surprised WWE had no interest in picking his contract up then considering they love big dudes.

Maybe because he was a WCW guy they didn't want him and that's probably a good thing. I'm sure Bradshaw would try to pick a fight with him in the back and Simmons would have taken liberties with him in the ring.

Did a little search and apparently he was making a comeback on the indie scene before Covid kind of threw a wrench in that. I saw a recent picture of him, he still looks just a big muscle wise as he did before.

By OSW standards, he was definitely one of my boys. Anybody remember his short-lived run as M.I. Smooth? Yes, if only for his theme - which was the awesome combination of "Smooth" by Santana and "Smooth Operator" by Sade.
I was getting into him as MI Smooth towards the end, looked like he could have been a solid midcarder.

Fire and Ice should’ve jumped to WWE Vince would’ve used them better

Fire and Ice should’ve jumped to WWE Vince would’ve used them better They were a tag team in the mid 90's... I'd have my doubts.

Scott Norton told me that Ice Train didn't like wrestling, and Scott hated tagging with someone who didn't care, and was just there for a paycheck.
He didn't tell me "Don't tell anyone," so I'm sharing it. Being an Ice Train fan, this upset me.

I'm deeply concerned "doesn't care about wrestling" translates to something like "didn't treat me with extra respect when I told him about kayfabe accomplishments I had in Japan" so grain of salt.
