10 More Wrestling Gimmicks So Bad They Didn’t Even Make It To TV

6. A Different Evolution

Evolution was one of the most successful stables of the Ruthless Aggression era. Well yeah, it had Triple H in it. He wasn't going to let his faction be booked like a bunch of chumps, was he?

The Game, his mentor Ric Flair, and young upstarts Randy Orton and Batista represented the past, present, and future of pro wrestling and the number of championships shared between the four men is staggering.

But that number was almost a lot lower.

Mark Jindrak was a young wrestler who enjoyed success in the tag team division during WCW's dying days. He was also the original pick for Batista's spot in Evolution, until Triple H shot the idea down.

The Game claimed that he thought Jindrak didn't fit the group, but we all know the real reason was because he was a WCW guy. Wait until he finds out Batista tried out at the Power Plant...

Whilst we mean no ill will towards Jindrak, imagining Evolution without Batista just doesn't make sense. He was integral to that group's success and it's hard to see them being as over without the Animal involved.

Poor Mark, at least he got to wear a nice suit for a bit.
