After seeing Santino as Boris Alexiev & Paul Burchill in pre-pirate/full time jobber status, I am definitley disappointed that they didn't go in a different direction with these two. Other notables, Nick Dinsmore & Rob Conway. Anyone else care to discuss?

So true. I found old clips of Santino as Boris and he was amazing. I was so pumped when I first read he came to Raw. Now, although he's doing great it sucks he's not able to showcase his talent as a wrestler.

Everyone in OVW in 2001 and 2002 should have made it huge

The way it looks, Kozlov basically stole Santino's gimmick. But hell, he's still a great talent.

the sad thing is that these guys have so much potential and aren't allowed to showcase it because they're given gimmicks restrictions

This is what happens when you apply to the wrestling company that emphasizes on Entertainment. It's character over athleticism. Gimmicks over skill.

First thing that came to my mind. I remember his huge hype and I saw him at a house show, he had a good build/look. I don't know what happened though. Conway, too, I feel like they had big plans for. Good topic. |

Ken Doane, Nick Dinsmore, and Paul Burchill. Colt Cabana was having a great run in OVW, too. Now, he's just jobbing on SmackDown!. Wicked lame.

Good topic. Thanks. There have been so many that have fallen by the wayside that I thought it was worthy of discussion. |
