Test sucking
By Scott Keith on October 10, 2018
Was it Test sucking? I mean the didn’t really give him a chance. Everything pointed towards Test replacing Austin at Survivor Series, but they inexplicably picked Show. Everything pointed towards Test/HHH At Armageddon, but the was Vince. Then they blew it off in one Raw main event and he was done and with T&A by WrestleMania 2000.
Had Test been the one Steph turned on, and had he won the Rumble or had ppv Meon events with HHH maybe things were different. Test had the look, was decent in ring, agile… Nash like only with less charisma and a better moveset. Why did Vince quit on him so quickly?
It’s a weird case because usually guys who look like Test get a million chances, but they really booked him like shit after Summerslam 99 for whatever reason. I’ve heard he didn’t help his own cause backstage, but it’s not like he was any worse than any other people in that same position with that same look. For me as a fan at the time, what killed him off as an interesting threat was the tag match on RAW after the wedding, where he finally got a chance to get revenge on HHH and just kind of tagged in and lethargically did a normal match instead of showing any kind of fire for being wronged and having his fiance stolen from him.
But hey, ultimately Steph and HHH were the true destined couple, so he was doomed from the start anyway.
