10 Most Unsuccessful WWE Returns Of All-Time
6. Test
It really is a mystery how Test didn't become a bigger star than he did during WWE's Attitude Era.
Obviously, one can argue that Triple H, Stephanie McMahon's legitimate boy toy on and off the air, played a part in Test's downfall following his famous angle with Stephanie, but either way, he never fulfilled his full potential during his initial run with WWE.
Test was released from WWE in 2004 and was brought back as part of the revamped ECW brand two year later. He seemed to be an odd fit for the "Land of Extreme", but it was the perfect platform for him to reestablish himself before returning to the main stages of Raw and SmackDown.
He built up some credibility for a few months through his dominant and impressive performances, but he was always unsuccessful in capturing the ECW Championship.
Strangely enough, officials scrapped his push around the time he was being primed as ECW's top heel, but it can be assumed that his 30-day suspension due to violating WWE's Wellness Policy was a factor in that. He was fired a week into his suspension and never returned to the company before his unfortunate death in 2009.
For a guy of his massive size and skill, Test should have been much more than what he was, but he blew it when he got that second chance.
