10 Great Wrestlers Who Never Got Over In WWE

4. Perry Saturn

Perry Saturn was as complete a professional wrestler as you are ever going to find. He had a unique look, an aesthetic that was just as effective in garnering babyface sympathy as it was in creating an imposing heel dominance. Saturn was an accomplished technical wrestler who was athletic as all heck, a man who could fly around with the cruiserweights and strike with the best of them. If you were creating a pro wrestler from scratch, the former WCW United States Champion would be a great base.

Saturn had it all, but he never seemed to get the crowd on his side in WWE. At no point did the former Eliminator garner any major reactions, an absolute must when it comes to succeeding in the wacky world of Vince McMahon. Saturn was originally positioned in the Radicalz, but when they disbanded, it was just one bad storyline after another from there. Moppy? The less said about Moppy, the better.

The depressing part is that the ‘Moppy Era’ (not an actual thing) was arguably Saturn’s most over time in WWE. That or when he was unprofessionally pulverising Mike Bell, but it is best not to think about that too much.
