12 WWE Monsters That Failed
1. The Big Show
Despite multiple World Titles, WrestleMania main events and a certain place in WWE's Hall of Fame, The Big Show has to be considered a failure on what further potential should have been achieved.
Upon his 1999 arrival, Paul Wight inadvertently exposed the myth that WWE wasn't some perfect utopia in comparison to the rapidly declining WCW.
In WCW, The Giant was at least considered a virtually unstoppable monster for the early days of his run. Though inexperienced in-ring, Wight was nimble for his incredible size and a lightening-quick learner at the point he was carrying the company's World Title for a second time in mid-1996.
Flash forward three years, and WWE were unable to curb his self-confessed lazy attitude, his rapidly expanding waistline, and the constant heel/babyface switches that had polluted his latter WCW tenure.
Furthermore, he was defeated by Stone Cold Steve Austin in his first proper televised match.
An unfathomable act even against the hottest star in the industry, Show was damaged goods, and had half the aura of his ginormous stature when he unexpectedly lifted the World Title at November's Survivor Series.
The pattern followed Show's entire career and does to this day, incidentally as he backslides into retirement in the best shape he's been in for twenty years.
