Actually, Kurt's return in 2018 wasn't all that bad. We got DX and Shield Kurt, Triple H and Stephanie vs Kurt and Rounda rousey (Which surprisingly turn out to be a good match) etc.. I feel like his final match aganist Corbin damaged the reputation of his return. Obviously, The fans wanted him to face guys like Cena, Styles or Joe to cap off his career.
Much more dishonorable mentions: Shawn Michaels return to face the Undertaker and Kane in a tag match, Mr Perfect 2002 return, and finally Eva Marie's return
@@LadyAbsolution I think the problem was that most important matches he had in his run involved him losing or never winning something important, in the money in the bank he failed to get the briefcase and his WWE title match against Seth Rollins resulted in a disqualification, so it wasn't bad, but it wasn't as meaningful
Too be honest around that time, the likes of Maxxine Dupri and Chelsea Green was practically out shining her, WWE were already high on the likes Zoey Stark. So it seem like their was no available room for her, when at best she was jobbed to likes Ronda. Ronda really put a wrench in many womens development since she and Wwe knew she was leaving so they forced a storyline between her and shayna just because ronda only wanted to put over her
He's actually one of the reasons I watch smackdown because he's back. He's always been good and done good things for the business outside as well. He's cool.
Still what’s the point of bringing him back? Right now, Lumis has been a ghost and hasn’t done anything on the main roster after his feud with The Miz was a dud.
Bro, he walked out of his match with Lashley for the ECW World championship, at a PPV... THE ROYAL RUMBLE That's some of the worst booking I've seen in my entire life
They really did Dexter Lumis dirty when he returned. He has a great look and a great gimmick and dropped him in that awful storyline with Miz and they haven’t done anything with him since
Kurt Angle’s return in 2017 was very cool. He was inducted into the HOF, RAW GM and was on the RAW Survivor Series team and teamed with Rollins and Ambrose as an honorary member of The Shield. But for his retirement match at WrestleMania 35 was disappointing because he face Baron Corbin
I vehemently disagree. Think Kurt Angle’s second WWE stint was a blemish on his otherwise stellar career. He did far too much pandering to the audience and relied on “playing the hits”. That’s not what he’s about and it’s not what makes him great. I wish he could have a do-over on that. His first stint and his TNA run were far too goated for that nonsense we got
@@chiarosuburekeni9325You forget that vince was behind most of that nonsense, including the corbin match. Like or not, Kurt wanted to retire in wwe. It is not your bloody decision so get the F over it
I remember the day Scott Hall died my Granfather felt it was the time to casually tell us he used to hunt Gators down in florida with him all the time. Cool shit
He actually credits the bitch the essentially got him released with saving his life. The bitch happened cause he couldn’t feel his feet under him. He then saw a doctor who diagnosed him with Diabetes.
*Mickie James should’ve been included in the list. Mickie is undeniably one of the best female wrestlers of all time and it’s such a damn shame that WWE never gave her the same respect like Trish or Lita. I really hated how they just made her Alexa Bliss’s lackey in her second run.*
The thing that bothers about about wrestling getting a strong presentation due to their age is that, that it's never enforced, heck Ric Flair was in his 50s in the 2000s and he was still being presented insanely strong, so there's really no excuse how they treated Mickie James in the late 2010s
Same, I've heard they're trying to release him but he has a lot of friends in the company helping him, probably why he's prepared a wrestling school, I really hope they find a way to change his gimmick maybe giving him a mic, sam is a talented guy who's only just now been given a real chance, but it just didn't click with the main audience, didn't help the silent big mysterious guy gimmick was sorta already being done by solo sikoa, so it just got boring, there's still a lot of potential in him though so I hope they find a way to put him over
I have a theory that Dexter Lumis was going to be part of the Bray Wyatt and Uncle Howdy storyline, then after Bray's passing, they bever could find a place for him.
In 2022 Emma should’ve return to NXT in her 3rd run get a great push by winning her first NXT womens championship ⭐️ but Instead she returns to Main roster has no plans for her at all.
Lol yeah who even watched hogan vs Andre anyway. Boring garbage. Today’s wrestling is far superior. I like to feel like I can beat up the guys I watch.
And worst for Emma it's the second time that when she was released a twitter incident happened first Lio rush made fun of her and then Emma said she wanted to compete in elimination chamber in Australia and bam she was released and had to say never mind
The same thing happened for Mustafa Ali. He was scheduled for a match against Dominik for the NXT North America championship but was released before the match
I agree with everyone except Bray. His return was one of the very best, I mean yeah some people didn't really like his story following the return but it was cut short due to what happened after so you can't really say it's a failure imo. And it was also LA Knight's first big feud on the main roster.
@@RandomGuy31307I disagree, I think it failed because of how it progressed. Like Adam Blampied did a video on PartsFunKnown on how WWE should book Uncle Howdy and it's way better than what we got but part of the reason is because the Uncle Howdy storyline we got was bad. I mean first Bray Wyatt isn't Uncle Howdy, then he is, then he's not and is supposed to be feuding with Uncle Howdy, then out of nowhere he and Uncle Howdy are on the same page. It sucked that Bray Wyatt died before it paid off however at the same time the payoff probably would have sucked. Also LA Knight shouldn't have been involved, it should have been Bray Wyatt, Uncle Howdy, Braun Strowman, and Alexa Bliss. Maybe Karrion Kross, Nikki Cross, and Dexter Lumis because they were rumored to be a part of the Wyatt Family 6/Firefly Fun House characters brought to life but LA Knight shouldn't have been involved because he never had a supernatural gimmick. Now if that was done after the Uncle Howdy storyline ended with Bray Wyatt, Uncle Howdy, and the Wyatt Family 6 targeting different superstars and one of them is LA Knight then that's fine because that's what Bray Wyatt did with John Cena at WrestleMania 10 years ago and he had a reason to but he didn't have a real reason to feud with LA Knight.
@@RandomGuy31307nah bray's return isn't that good ...we thought he gonna face roman ...but even all hype they ruin everything......they should make it like return of cena when roman win that match and cena suprisely came.
Swerve lost tonight but Hangman was going to make sure he didn't win so it made sense. Swerve will be champion by the end of the year and I can't wait for it. Don't know how WWE let this guy slip away. He is so great.
Ronda Rousey failed herself. She was never good in the ring. People failed to understand that. She was a female Goldberg. Overhyped with lack of in ring skills and mic skills. But atleast Goldberg has respect for the business and has achieved more success than Ronda. And HOF? Are you joking? What makes her career HOF worthy? Because she was one of the first females to headline WrestleMania. Or because she won 3 titles (1x Raw Women's champion, 1x SmackDown Women's champion & 1x Women's tag team champion). WWE pushed her for publicity and nothing more. Sad how better wrestlers had to jobbed to her.
Hit Row’s biggest problem was that Vince had no faith in Swerve Strickland and wanted Flop Dolla to be the leader and star of the team when he demoted them to the main roster.
Well Gail Kim, if i remember correctly, publicly said "i would rather still be in TNA" when news broke she signed with WWE. She revealed she only signed cuz of the money.
@@matheusluiz000 thought what would be different? A person was doing interviews before making her return to a company and then said "I rather still be in TNA". Kinda similar to how now Mercedes Mone/Sasha Banks interviews before her AEW debut saying she thinks she'll go back to WWE in the future.
Gail Kim's story is frustrating. She said they would change rules every week like banning kicks and then randomly bringing it back. Also when she eliminated herself the people in the back didn't even notice.
Emma's biggest problem was that many WWE fans don't actually pay attention to the Indies or TNA, so when most people see her, they instantly see Jobber Emma. Another reason was that she just wasn't that big of a star to begin with, sure she had a good run in TNA with an entertaining team with Madison Rayne, but she failed to capture the top prize and was really just a good mid card act at best so the few who had payed attention to her thought she wasn't a big deal.
Did we ever find out why Dexter Lumis was stalking The Miz? I was actually a fan of the feud at first, but then it dragged on and on without any sort of payoff or explanation.
With Gail Kim, there are STILL the pending class action lawsuits against Vince; stemming from the sexual harassment allegations levied against him (NOT JUST BY HER, BUT ALSO VIA MANY OTHERS: MEN & WOMEN)!!
Lol the thing with women's battle royals was that until the first women's royal rumble in 2018, women only needed to go through the bottom rope to get eliminated
Flopp Dolla and Shit Row But it’s a shame when some legends/veterans return and WWE do nothing with them. RVD in 2013, all they did was job him out. The Dudley Boyz in 2015, all they did was job them out Mickie James in 2016/2017, all they did was job her out. Shelton Benjamin in 2017, barely could get on TV. John Morrison in 2020, they did nothing with him. Carlito in 2023, he recently won a match but he’s an afterthought. I understand making your younger names look good, but you also have to make your veterans look good so when the younger names beat them it means something. No one wants to beat up an old washed up veteran because it does nothing for anyone, you want to beat the veterans when they are still on top because it makes the younger names look good. Kurt Angle on the other hand was a completely different issue when he returned in 2017, he legit couldn’t go in the ring anymore, and I find that bizarre because the last time I saw Kurt Angle wrestle was in TNA in late 2013 and he could still go in the ring, so what the fuck happened in those 4 years?. By late 2017 he could be barely move the poor guy. I think Kurt Angle should've called it quits around 2014/2015 as that I think was when he could no longer go in the ring anymore.
Gail Kim's first run in WWE from 2003-2004 was awesome Especially when she won the women's title in her first match in that battle royal that was great that was better than her second run she was great in TNA especially when she was managing AMW and becoming the first TNA knockouts champion at bound for glory 2007 that was such an amazing moment her second wwe run was awful.
I put CM Punk on that List Regardless if its AEW or WWE, he was/is booked very very strong. But his Backstage antics and his third major injury in 2 years make him look weak.
No Karrion Kross his luster has declined ever since he returned in 2022. In his re-debut he was presented as a potential contender to the title but has done little ever since.
Ronda's second run was garbage because she was over weight, out of shape, lazy, and didn't care.. Her first run was great because she was strong, fit, trim, physical, and by far the best seller in the women's division by a billion miles.
By far the worst return in history was Terry Gordy's return in the 90s as The Executioner, even though almost nobody realized it was him as he wore a mask. This came after he suffered a massive stroke that left him with serious mental problems, which also eventually lead to his untimely death.
Emma's biggest problem was that many WWE fans don't actually pay attention to the Indies or TNA, so when most people see her, they instantly see Jobber Emma. Another reason was that she just wasn't that big of a star to begin with, sure she had a good run in TNA with an entertaining team with Madison Rayne, but she failed to capture the top prize and was really just a good mid card act at best.
Maybe Im misremembering, but didn’t Ronda talk all kinds of trash about the WWE fans when she left the first time? Why would anyone care when she came back?
I don't really consider Dexter to be a failed return as the creative failed him as soon as he got on the main roster he had maybe a couple of segments I can recall but it's been forever since we've seen him, that mystique he had in NXT & his mute character WWE kind of backed themselves into a no win situation with him
Why against Cena?cena don't need the rub ..Corbin does though...blame wwe for not doing a follow up after Corbin beat a legend . They can't do follow ups anymore.look at Shayna after beating Ronda or theory after beating Cena
Angle wasn’t in any considerable shape to have a decent match with Cena or any other top guy. It just wasn’t viable. This was evident when he returned. He could barely move his neck and he was incredibly limited in his in-ring work. The only good match he had during his final run was against drew McIntyre.
Hit-Row is perhaps the biggest flop ever. B-fab is absolutely useless. She adds nothing to Bobby & the street profits. At least we got that hilarious botch by top dollar. 😂
Nash and Hall were never going to be the top people like in the 90's. WWE had too much up and coming talent. Nash might have held an IC title if Vince hadn't deactivated the non-main titles in late 2002.
They need to repackage Dexter Lumis cause he's very talented and his silent psychopath gimmick wasn't given a real chance on main roster... Hit Row was doomed from the start without the leader Swerve

Exactly, He's in a good spot for a man his age.

Exactly. Carlito is in the spot he should be in. That's hardly a failure.
He was talking about his first return. He literally said they rectified it in the video. Pay attention
I'm a big fan of Dexter Lumis. His marriage to Indi Hartwell was probably the best wrestling marriage ever. Really hope he finds footing in the WWE.
Still what’s the point of bringing him back? Right now, Lumis has been a ghost and hasn’t done anything on the main roster after his feud with The Miz was a dud.
@@KadeemG61 When he was in NXT, he was always 'lurking.' That and him being creepy while also being wholesome is what got him over in NXT.

Having Dexter being a "paid fact rivalry" was a huge let down
sucks to see top dolla out of the company. i was hoping he would return for season 3 of most wanted treasures but it seems not.
Legion of Doom (Road Warriors) return to WWE in 2003. They decided to no-sell Kane and RVD's offense and were never seen again.
I put CM Punk on that List
Regardless if its AEW or WWE, he was/is booked very very strong. But his Backstage antics and his third major injury in 2 years make him look weak.
I digged Hit Rows theme though
Same
No Karrion Kross his luster has declined ever since he returned in 2022. In his re-debut he was presented as a potential contender to the title but has done little ever since.
Tbh Karrion is doing some solid work with the final testament right now
Karrion sucks ...fire his ass and focus on Bron and new nxt call ups ....
Far from a failure rn
@@khesipresents1885 that’s a bit too harsh don’t you think? Especially since he hasn’t been given a chance on the main roster
@@khesipresents1885Your opinion sucks!
Wrestle With Andy Got The Best UA-camr Channel Ever
Lumis isnt really a failed return. It's just bad timing vince got control of creative again and ran his storyline with the miz into the ground.
No way you thought about that, still typed it and posted for everyone to see.
You need to accept that HHH can make bad bookish decisions too
Jake won that match against Salvatore sincere on Shotgun Saturday night
So about that Wyatt Family/6 and Dexter Loomis returns worked out now didn't it lol
Ronda just has no charisma and can't act. She should have stuck to real fights.
Carlito hasn’t failed im he’s doing great now
I was shocked 😲 when Chris Benoit came back live on Raw this week.
Comparing Ronda Rousey to Jake Roberts is like comparing a pile of sshit to Jake Roberts
Ronda Rousey has more talent than you.
What does that make you then?
I said I'd give Eva Marie a month or two and i was right
At least Wrestle With Andy never had a failed comeback
Tantaka should be in list
Dexter deserves more. On a side note I’m pumped for when he comes back to Tacoma FD
What about CM Punk? lol One match and he flopped right into a hospital bed.
And with Test, you can't help but wonder if they (wwe) had given him some direction would he still be here with us today? RIP Test.
Ronda's second run was garbage because she was over weight, out of shape, lazy, and didn't care..
Her first run was great because she was strong, fit, trim, physical, and by far the best seller in the women's division by a billion miles.
By far the worst return in history was Terry Gordy's return in the 90s as The Executioner, even though almost nobody realized it was him as he wore a mask. This came after he suffered a massive stroke that left him with serious mental problems, which also eventually lead to his untimely death.
New Wrestle With Andy 👍
Emma's biggest problem was that many WWE fans don't actually pay attention to the Indies or TNA, so when most people see her, they instantly see Jobber Emma. Another reason was that she just wasn't that big of a star to begin with, sure she had a good run in TNA with an entertaining team with Madison Rayne, but she failed to capture the top prize and was really just a good mid card act at best.
Missing Johnny Gargano
Swerve strickland is just fine where he's at. He's prolly my favorite guy with AEW. Besides Mjf
Maybe Im misremembering, but didn’t Ronda talk all kinds of trash about the WWE fans when she left the first time? Why would anyone care when she came back?
because she’d make a good heel lmfao
I remember
I assumed it was a shoot
She was playing a heel.
@@dhenderson1810 after she left the company?
Hit Row was a damn disgrace
I don't really consider Dexter to be a failed return as the creative failed him as soon as he got on the main roster he had maybe a couple of segments I can recall but it's been forever since we've seen him, that mystique he had in NXT & his mute character WWE kind of backed themselves into a no win situation with him
The issue with Emma is she can’t talk on the mic, she doesn’t have a connection with the crowd and she’s not that charismatic of a character
The only time she was over was when she did dorky dancing in NXT.
I felt so bad when Kurt Angle came back, his last match should of been against John Cena. Not piss break jobber Baron Corbin
Why against Cena?cena don't need the rub ..Corbin does though...blame wwe for not doing a follow up after Corbin beat a legend . They can't do follow ups anymore.look at Shayna after beating Ronda or theory after beating Cena
Or Solo beating Cena too.@@khesipresents1885
Angle wasn’t in any considerable shape to have a decent match with Cena or any other top guy. It just wasn’t viable.
This was evident when he returned.
He could barely move his neck and he was incredibly limited in his in-ring work.
The only good match he had during his final run was against drew McIntyre.
@@khesipresents1885 John Cena would of worked around it tho
@@khesipresents1885 Kurt wanted his last match against Cena but Vince said no
Hit-Row is perhaps the biggest flop ever.
B-fab is absolutely useless. She adds nothing to Bobby & the street profits.
At least we got that hilarious botch by top dollar. 😂
The Dexter one was a Vince booking there’s no way hhh would book Dexter like that
Then why isn't he booked better now?
He’s still booked horribly now. Not everything is that old dirt’s fault.
Dexter Lumis had a good run. It was just very short-lived.
I wouldn’t call it a failure.
Man, Jake's last match of his New Generation run was a loss to the man who lasted 5 seconds in the 1998 Rumble?
Correct me if I’m wrong but hasn’t Lumis been filming for a tv show for the last few months? Wouldn’t that impact his presence on wwe tv?
Test has won everything title in WWE. All except for the Heavyweight title. Dude deserves a spot into the WWE HOF.
He never won the US Championship
@@RyguyTheGreat22, to be honest...I had forgotten about that title 😅😅😅🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Dexter was awesome. I wish him and Miz would've fended more.
What ever happened to ole Dexter Lumis?
Since Tomaso came back he has completely disappeared
Nash and Hall were never going to be the top people like in the 90's. WWE had too much up and coming talent. Nash might have held an IC title if Vince hadn't deactivated the non-main titles in late 2002.
Why does Andy say "New York" WWE is located in Connecticut....
Hit Row was always a flop. They were more a burden for Swerve than anything else.
Actually Top Dollar had a diabetic episode in the match.
Top Dollar is now at the top (rope) at TNA. Let's hope he doesn't flop.
15:23 you cant count that. it was more or less his home town so thats 100% dosent count
They need to repackage Dexter Lumis cause he's very talented and his silent psychopath gimmick wasn't given a real chance on main roster... Hit Row was doomed from the start without the leader Swerve
Ronda had lost her smile in 2022-2023.
