10 WCW Superstars Who Should Blame WWE For Their Crappy Gimmicks

7. VK Wallstreet (IRS)

This one is a bit tricky because Mike Rotunda developed the Michael Wallstreet character in WCW. He really didn't last too long as Michael Wallstreet in WCW, though. He went over to WWE in 1991, then became really well known as Irwin R. Schyster. It's a case of WWE actually using his WCW gimmick as a financial analyst to become a tax man. His WCW return took place on the debut episode of Nitro on September 4, 1995. He was using the Michael Wallstreet name again. However, one week later he was using VK Wallstreet as the name. Why the change in names? Because Eric Bischoff was obsessed with taking shots at WWE as much as he could. They never said what the VK stood for, but they were suggesting that it was "Vincent Kennedy" in reference to McMahon.

The name never really got over for him. He was just a midcarder during his WCW run, as well as a NWO member that really didn't do anything of note. It was a gimmick that was too cheesy even for pro wrestling.
