Look at Brakkus there.

On aesthetics alone, somebody in the industry would have been mad not to give former bodybuilder Achim Albrecht a try, and somebody might as well have been Vince McMahon based on what he liked from his pro wrestlers. Couple that with training on the basics from Bret Hart and Tom Prichard, and it was felt that Brakkus could get by on a little and offer a lot.

Cagematch felt otherwise, and the evidence is there to support that.

14 house show and dark matches with trainer Prichard as Dr. X and several with big-bumping Billy Gunn in his Rockabilly persona couldn't help Brakkus flesh out more than the basics, and a last-gasp pivot for the big man into 1998's Brawl For All ended for him as it did for so many - a defeat that looked and felt much worse than one would have done within the confines of a normal pro wrestling outing.

He got a 50-second squash win over Jesus Castillo a month after losing the quasi-boxing bout to Savio Vega, but his reputation as a bloated muscular busted flush was, by then, beyond repair.
