Fascinating WWE Ideas That Flopped HARD!

10. Main Roster DIY

Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa will forever be recognised as two of the greatest performers ever to grace an NXT ring.

As part of the black and gold brand, both as a DIY unit and singles stars in their own right, the world-class workers frequently blew the roof off of arenas and helped make the developmental show the hottest product in all of wrestling at one point.

So, fans simply could not wait for the moment the pair finally made the jump up to the "big time."

But they were made to wait. And wait. And wait.

And by the time both lads were officially called up - after that random and completely pointless 2019 main roster "debut" - and fully fit, that once-intriguing concept of DIY taking the Raw or SmackDown by storm sadly just felt like a case of too little, too late.

It also didn't help that Triple H simply assumed that just dumping the two former NXT Champions into a few tag matches together would lead to deafening reactions out of the gates.

The average WWE fan who didn't experience the pair's captivating wars with The Revival or against one another simply knew these two losers as the former pals and disappointing rivals of The Miz.

And unsurprisingly, after doing very little to make current fans give a damn about this latest addition to the red brand's tag roster, DIY have ultimately become another pair of occasionally exciting bodies just lost in the shuffle.
