10 Superstars Failed By The WWE System
3. Adam Bomb
Probably a victim of bad timing over lack of discernible talent, Adam Bomb's perpetual floundering in mid-1990's WWE remains one of the more confusing company misfires.
Debuting in 1993, Bomb was athletic for his size, physically imposing at nearly seven-foot tall, and had a character no less cartoonish than the majority of the roster at the time.
However, with the exception of dumping heel manager Harvey Wippleman in mid-1994, Bomb was rarely given a significant storyline for his character to sink his teeth into.
This made the monster expendable, and by 1995 he was almost exclusively relegated to scoring pointless wins on the weekend shows or laying down for the 'real' stars, including a demeaning two minute defeat at the first 'In Your House' pay-per-view to King Mabel.
It should be noted that during the entirety of Bomb's tenure, he shared the show with Kevin 'Diesel' Nash, who was a revelation transferring his role as a bodyguard for Shawn Michaels into a serviceable in-ring star who would win all three company titles in one calendar year.
It's possible that top brass there was only space at the top for one giant, but regrettably for Bomb, in the likelihood he would outwork Nash, the two were always kept apart.
