Buff Bagwell performed well above his paygrade for years. He was a six-time WCW World Tag Team champion and he is known as the only man in history to have competed for a world title in his televised WWF (it was the World Wrestling Federation back then) debut. He unsuccessfully challenged Booker T for the WCW Championship in the main event of a 2001 edition of Monday Night Raw. More appropriately and reflective of his ability, he also "won" the Most Embarrassing Wrestler gong in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter awards of 2001.He did, however, have an awesome finisher. It was a front flip piledriver - as made famous by Petey Williams - which is also known as the Canadian Destroyer. Bagwell also called it the Gigolo Destroyer when his gimmick was that of a gigolo (after he became one in real life).
