I hated their guts in my early days of watching wrestling.

Their theme was the best thing about there, it screamed "assholes" and I loved to watch people's reaction when the music hit.

Why WWE didn´t push Stevie afterwards? I mean, if they got such a great heel, why not create another character for him and try to make some money? Why try to fix, something that is not broken?

I found them really annoying as a mark. Which means they achieved their purpose. ;D Looking back at them now, I can appreciate them, especially Stevie's work. Same here.

Stevie was amazing, but the one thing I HATED was how he was being used mostly as the manager for Godfather (agree about the long sleeves) and Buchannan (WTF?) He could have totally been an outskirts of the main event kind of guy.

Well, they did make Stevie one of the major players in the Hardcore Title wars for a while. Then they did away with the title, and he was screwed.

HATED the music, thats for sure.
I've been a huge Richards fan since 1997, but I much prefer him in either the comedy face or wacko heel roles. I would've liked RTC much more if Stevie, by far the best worker in the group IMO, wasn't used as a glorified manager.

What did you think of the group? I hadn't been watching WWF consistently but I honestly thought Stevie Richards would be the next WWF champion. He seemed like such a charismatic guy in the leader of RTC. I thought that he would eventually start wrestling and be an unstoppable jerk. It was palatable. Decent stable. Good wrestlers. Those were the days of ideas that worked.

I think it was more for Vince's amusement, than actually doing anything for those involved-The "Goodfather"? Come on, Gimme a break-if they were gonna do anything with Charles Wright, they shoulda turned him back into Papa Shango. Oh and I was mortified when Stevie cut his hair
