Remember when Kaz hunted the Elite?

Yeah, the Elite Hunter gimmick should have at least paid off in him neutralising attempted interference when either the Bucks or Kenny lost their belts, preferably the Bucks since that would be more karmic. No idea why AEW didn't do that, since it rendered his quest for vengeance completely pointless.

I could be wrong, but didn't he get the Lucha Bros their title shot to begin with, the one they won on? I know he helped them win a non-title match that ended up getting them a title shot, but I might be conflating two different things if Penta and Fenix got a second shot.

In any case, I'd definitely put him as more effective than Yoshi Tatsu and Captain New Japan as "Bullet Club Hunters", or most WCW guys vs the nWo, but well below an Austin or Foley at undermining the Corporation's efforts. More than a speed bump, but not truly a thorn in the Elite's side.

A storyline that didn’t pan out and ended only a short time after starting? In AEW??

But seriously, I remember being on here and lamenting that Kaz’s Elite Hunter wasn’t really doing much of note. Cutler and Nakazawa are the fall guys who everyone can beat, so it wasn’t exactly impressive so much as “oh, right, Hunter”. I think Kaz deserved a lot better and could’ve at least gotten a visual pin if nothing else, but he came and went and it just felt like nothing.
