10 Awesome WWE Gimmicks That Were Dropped Way Too Soon

7. Three Minute Warning

The duo of Jamal and Rosey was known as 3 Minute Warning. They were a part of WWE starting in July 2002 on Raw when GM Eric Bischoff felt like unleashing them on hapless victims. Basically, they were hitmen for Bischoff that attacked people after Bischoff gave them "three minutes" to entertain him in a match. It was a great gimmick that quickly established them as badass heels that were there to do whatever Bischoff asked of them. Their attacks were impressive and since they were even willing to beat up women (Stephanie McMahon, Moolah & Mae Young among them) they were able to draw a lot of heel heat. Their biggest moment was when they crashed the Commitment Ceremony between Billy & Chuck on Smackdown. Since they were Raw guys they weren't allowed to be there, but Bischoff made it happen as a way to get at Smackdown's GM Stephanie McMahon. For whatever reason, WWE never really pulled the trigger on them as a team. They could have been tag team champions or something close to that, but they really became a non-factor towards the end of 2002. They were done by 2003.
