7 Elaborate WWE Vignettes That Led To Nothing

7. Sean O'Haire

In early 2003, Sean O'Haire appeared in a series of vignettes in which he implored viewers to commit various "sinful" acts. In the above video, for example, he suggests that men in the WWE audience should cheat on their spouses, telling them, "your wife will thank you later".

It was all part of his radical new Devil's Advocate gimmick, for which he began wearing a comically over-sized leather jacket and covered his body in tasteless spider tattoos.

The main highlight of the run was his short-lived alliance with Roddy Piper, who enlisted the help of the former WCW star in his ongoing feud with Mr America. The pair met at Judgement Day, where Zach Gowen helped his hero score a routine win.

Despite being occasionally quite entertaining - O'Haire succeeded, for instance, in persuading a young Brian Kendrick to strip backstage and run into general manager Stephanie McMahon's office - the character was abruptly dropped a couple of months later, and the man behind it soon after released.
