Future TNA star D'Angelo Dinero failed to set WWE alight when he was called up to the main roster in 2006 as MMA fighter Sylvester Terkay's cornerman. His move away from Terkay did little to change that, and even after two years with the company, most fans would have struggled to pick Burke out of a crowded room. His brief Royal Rumble appearance in 2008 was typical of Burke's lack of momentum in WWE, with his elimination coming thanks to the mighty Triple H seconds later.
