4. Mike Kruel
And heres another member of Bad Company. Mike Kruel was a great talent. He was good in the ring and was good on the mic. I loved his work in Bad Company and then his work later as the leader of Team America. Team America consisted of Mike Kruel and several non American wrestlers. Kruetl changed his name to Michael W. Kruel as a part of this gimmick. Kruel was a former two time OVW TV champion and a former OVW Heavyweight champion. Kruel had engaged in feuds with Boris Alexiev (Santino Marella) and Vladimir Kozlov. I actually attended an OVW TV taping and saw Alexiev win the TV title from Kruel live. I feel like Kruel was indeed a wasted opportunity. He proved he was good in OVW doing Bad Company and doing the All-American gimmick. WWE released Kruel in 2009 and it looks like WWE has no plans to bring him back.
