Severely.

I thought he was used fine in WCW, I think I'm more disappointed by the fact that we haven't seen much of him SINCE WCW. I miss him so much.

Lol. I know many others would bleh at the memory. But Disco and Alex Wright always trying to out dance each other was great for laughs.

The trio of Disco, Alex and Tokyo Magnum was way excellent! Don't really feel as if Disco was misused by WCW, for the most part, no matter how good he may have been, he acted like a comedy goof for way too long.

I remember him submitting in a match because if the person had hurt his arm, he couldn't do a specific dance move.

Disco had a good run, I wouldn't say misused. His WCW run set him up for the indies forever, more than most guys.
He did in fact do a "cut weight to cruiserweight" gimmick for awhile, which was funny because certainly I remembered doing this all too much in school trying to keep my place on the wrestling team. Disco was listed at 240#, 15# over the cw limit.

Disco Inferno was a hilarious mid-carder. As much as I love him, I'm glad he wasn't more.

Only thing I ever liked that he did was when he wanted to join one of the nWos and they wouldnt let him, he'd run in on there matches to help them and he wouldnt get to do anything...

I don't think he was misused at all, he was a midcard comedy act heel, and even won the TV title from Perry Saturn.
Loved his theme song, and his tag team with Alex Wright and Tokyo Magnum also.

My favorite Disco Inferno memory was when he did a re-mix of Konnan's music video, that was high comedy.

At first when he was a jobber most of the time, but when he stayed in WCW for a while and did enough jobs, the push came and deserved it. It seems like he was used fine.

I actually made an Angelfire tribute site for him after he won the TV Title from Saturn. I don't believe I ever updated it at all.

I'm starting to think WCW was misused by WCW. I'm sad now. I loved WCW. Even when they were past the point of no return, I still held out hope that they would somehow turn things around.
