Really sad to think he died at 32. What do you think he could've gone on to do in his career? I could've seen the E re-hiring him, especially once the ECW brand was created in 2006. Maybe a couple shots at the ECW Title (a la Test, where his exposure on brand number three would've been higher level than anything previously experienced; and maybe even some matches with Hardcore on that brand), and then maybe some US/Cruiserweight Title division stuff on Smackdown after that. By the late 2000s I could see him hitting that middle road where some moderate "pushes" are possible for him, but at the same time his experience and name would be used to establish newer talents (both by teaching younger guys and helping put together matches with them, and by doing some jobs to make them look good). By the 2010s I could've definitely seen him as a Scott Taylor-like agent individual, but also maybe having small runs in TNA like Al Snow (but for the same purpose ultimately, to help younger folks). By 2021, I think he'd continue to be a producer in the E or AEW.
What do you guys think? What would the future have held for Mike "Crash Holly" Lockwood?

A reunion with Bob Holly wouldve been a must.Always got a kick of them two getting into arguments during the AE which led to a brawl.
Crazy to think he was only 32. Damn shame.

This kind of makes me wish they had created ECW Tag Team Titles (though, was there enough talent on the brand to warrant them?), as I think they would've been perfect to hold them. Wish Bob had had a run in TNA, because holding their tag straps at some point would've also made sense. In either case they could've had a decent run and then gone on to lose the straps to a younger team. |

He was pretty much Santino Marella of the Attitude Era.
He was a comedy act at best. I don't see much more happening for him if he hadn't died.

I coulda seen him brought back to work some matches in the cruiserweight division. He definitely would have also held the 24/7 title in modern times atleast once.

Would have been brought back for a one off Raw Reunion type event every couple of years perhaps but I dont see him getting any kind of special recognition or repeat appearance. Probably a couple of appearances for the 24/7 championship for nostalgia.
Very sad he was only 32.

He definitely would have done a cameo win of the 24/7 title…absolutely
