Sean O'haire was so underrated, the man was great in the ring, had the WWE look, all he needed was a good gimmick to get him going....

I love it every time Simon says Dubya C Dubya

Devil's Advocate was my favorite gimmick that never got off the ground :(

Sean O'Haire was Criminally underused, just looking at what he could do in the ring, so much potential

Sean O'Haire was an amazing athlete. There were rumors that he intimidated hhh because he was stronger, faster and a better athlete, so the plug got pulled

Do you ever scroll down the comments and think, " Damn, I could've wrote that.

Mordecai was a gimmick I thought could of done well Him v taker Dark v light

Killer Kross in Impact is doing the devil's advocate bit and he's doing it beautifully

I really miss Mr Kennedy Really he was such an entertaining guy

That Kennedy thing was mentioned a million other times on your channel...kinda think that we knew that one already

Honorable mention... Bad News Barrett!

Everything is to make Vince McMahon happy,not the fans. ANOTHER problem with WWE among many that's killing this company.

Sean O'Haire and Mark Jindrak were a much better tag pairing than the one with Pulumbo

What about all the cancelled gimmicks, like Matt hardy angelic diablo, Dean ambrose anti hardcore, or Owen harts black heart

Old joke: If HHH is the game, does that make Stephanie the box he came in?

After all the Years I still get mad on WWE when it comes to Sean O´Haire. Such a wasted Talent. Dammit, the Man was pure Main Event Material.

Waylon Mercy. So much potential...

Friar Ferguson was always high up on the list. Book him only in 'I Quit' matches and he'd never lose, because he took an vow of silence.

I watched Sean O'Haire. I clicked.

Paul Burchills Pirate Gimmic was awesome

I miss muhammad hassan. His gimmick was great

Sean O'Haire = Sean-ton Bomb!

Mohammed Hassan had the most natural heat and his promos were epic! I'm still mad about the whole situation on how they killed his character.

Frosty McFreeze ? Sounds like something they would sell at Tastee Freeze ☕

9:53 "Number 2 Vade Hansen" ....... Simon your drunk mate lol Hade Vansen and the FWA are rolling in their mid 00s lowki UK scene gave...... 😉Jks

The Devil’s Advocate was such an interesting idea

and hell, im not telling you anything that you don't already know

I remember the devils advocate gimmick. It was a good one to short lived had a lot of potential. Ravens seven deadly sins would honestly say raven planned to short of a run time. The Jeff lita angle could of ran for a solid 4 to 6 months in itself. I hate the speed of the stories now

I always thought Kizarny had potential

And of course... KIZARNY!

I seem to remember a "why" video from the last two weeks where you argued the attitude era succeeded because people didn't have gimmicks and now you say that everyone had gimmicks in the attitude era. I think the wwe writing staff's lack of continuity is rubbing off on you.

I got to know Sean for a couple of months. He was a great guy

Cody Rhodes' Tony Stark/Rhodes Industries gimmick belongs here

Sean O'Haire 😭😭💔

Goldust actually loved the Seven character. He talked about it at Inside the Ropes show in Birmingham in March. Russo pulled the plug when he was brought in as he didn't get it, it was created just before they brought him in

Kharma needs to return to WWE.

Somebody should definitely be called "The Interesting Beast"

Vade Hansen is his Impact Zone name

Ahem, that’s Chilly McFreeze to you sir.

It's stupid that WWE removed Aloisa

Not so much abandoned, more like never took place, but Christopher Daniels as the "Higher Power".

Awesome Kong just like Gal Kim didnt need the WWE to be a star!

sean o'haire is a legend Also wasn't it CHILLY McFreeze not frosty

A minor one, but Ludvig Borga/ Tony Halme ending Tatanka's undefeated streak. They could've grown a gimmick out of that, yet WWE did nothing with the guy. Dude was like Brock Lesnar before there was even a Brock Lesnar.

*MORDECAI*

Vince not getting O'Haire's devil's advocate gimmick speaks volumes.

Karma/Awesome Kong is one of the stars in GLOW. I think it's worth noting.

Simon's videos are the only "what culture" videos I'll watch. He's the only thing keeping this channel alive.

It was actually Chilly Mcfreeze lol

Man Vince really needs another guy to make the calls on mid level guys. That's why you don't have any super Stars. I'm worried about Bray. Vince could not get it and pull the plug before it recently starts

What a great list. Well done guys

i loved the Devil's Advocate gimmick. i thought it fit in with the WWE at the time

MMMMMMISTERRRRRRRRRR..... KENNNEEEDDDYYYYYYYY.... KENNEDY!

Sean O'haire is maybe the most underrated wrestler of all time.

I remember the Devil's Advocate gimmick, it could have gone a very long way, but no, people would have enjoyed it and god knows Vince wouldn't allow that

I believe his suggested name was "Chilly McFreeze"

Legend has it the character of Milton in Office Space is based on JTG’s continued but unknown employment with WWE.

I actually kind of like the idea of a "7 deadly sins" gimmick. maybe make it a new heel stable with 7 members each representing one of the sins? I know 7 is a lot of people but hey, the Nexus had how many rotating members? You could even give them their own special kind of match that's like a gauntlet match where you have to "overcome" all of the sins in a 7 layered match. just a thought.

I'm surprised given his look, that WWE didn't saddle Sean with a Brendan Fraser-esque George of the Jungle gimmick

If we’re being completely honest if Vince hadn’t dropped the ball with Aloisia so quickly he probably would’ve dropped the ball with her later and put her in a love storyline with The Great Khali or something

The thumbnail sums up these videos really hahaha.. Different lists with the same entries.. still love them though

5:20 Imagining a world where Kharma was around to wreslte Nia Jax and the commentators mentioning how they made sure that the ring was reinforced to carry the weight...just like old times.

Waylon Mercy... that gimmick could have gone far.

i don't know about that gimmick for O'haire, but he was pretty good, back in wcw with jindrak and o'haire was really impressive in the few matches they had.. then in wwe he had a few good tag team matches as well.. no idea why they couldn't figure out what to do with him.

The ironic thing is that most of these concepts are happening right now. Look at the storyline Seven and JTG concept. Looks familiar at Raw with a certain Wyatt storyline? Has the WWE are so desperate because of what's going on within the Organization itself and the soon arrival of AEW that they are using old storylines? You decide. Oh on the side note have anyone saw the NEW Ambrose aka MOX Video it was EPIC!!!!!! Also Cyrme Time made their appearance at GCW Spring Break. Great to see those guys Wrestle again.

This video: Everyone in the Attitude Era had a gimmick of some sort. A video last week: There aren't many gimmicks nowadays, but the Attitude Era was mostly just a bunch of generic guys as well.

goldust=goldtaker=Seven

I remember Stevie Richards and the Blue Meanie doing a knock-off of "The Blair Witch Project", but it was called "The Blond Bitch Project". They only did one video. I kind of wanted to see where it was going, giving the two guys involved

Zero clue why a talent hasn't modified the Sean O'Haire Devil's Advocate character.... My favorite untapped character

Wait a min Simon ✋ you said "Vade Hansen" but the screen showed "Hade Vansen" which one is it? 9:53

Hang on why does no one talk about how Nia Jax beat up guys for two weeks then nothing

Seems like theres a common thread through all this.....it usually starts with "Vince heard about the idea" then ???, then "And then that person went on to do nothing, or die, or otherwise be squandered"

I'm very disappointed that WWE didn't do more with Mr. Kennedy, who was of the coolest guys in the company for a while. But what disappointed me even more is what they did with Tatanka. Even though he was an older wrestler, they featured him as part of the regular SmackDown roster throughout 2006. Then, late in the year, after losing a number of matches (some of them unfairly), he snapped and turned heel, returning the next week in Sting-like corpse paint and announcing that a "vengeful spirit" had awoken within him. It was an awesome gimmick - I really loved it and didn't even realize it was supposed to be a heel gimmick! - but it lasted less than a month and then he was abruptly released and semi-retired from WWE. He wrestled only two matches in the new makeup, both of them against Jimmy Wang Yang. At least he won his last match with the company, which is more than can be said of most.

Sean O'haire Shelton benjamin and Umaga are 3 tottaly wasted talents !! So underrated!

This video looks like the inspiration for most of Bray Wyatt's firefly funhouse.

10:29 Is that sweet papi sanchez

Could you imagine Awesome Kong in today’s WWE?... would be so much better then Jax

2:29 where can I find this photo?

The Devil's advocate gimmick was great, O' Haire owned those promos

I'm not a fan of Mr. Kennedy, but I do kinda miss him, and Kennedy-McMahon sounds amazing.

Simmons new gimmick Haku Survivor.

he’s not telling us anything we didn’t already knew

I forgot about the Devils advocate gimmick until now

I was so freaked out of Waylon Mercy as a kid and I wanted to see Waylon Mercy versus The Undertaker at SummerSlam 95 instead of The Godfather who was Who's part of the million-dollar Corporation

Normally I don't agree with an entire list but all of these should've gotten more of a shot

Dan Severn's tash could bench press 200 pounds... FACT😎

"Dubya Cee Dubya" 😂😂😂

Me Kennedy was one of my favorites growing up

We need Mr. Severn in the HOF

We never saw Emiliana gimmick, Eva Marie (kind of thankful for that) & Braun Stroman (how you go from Monster Among Men to nothing?), EC3 Insanity & other NXT stars called to the main roster.

sean o-haire might get the Cena spotlight if WWE booked him right. The good looks, mic skills and talent

The mortel combat gim iks From wcw in the 90tis..were so cool....i dont unterstand why the dont get over....or win orten titles .....and buff bagwell was for ne a wcw World champion..je was so good

"Before she fell pregnant"? Is that how they say it in UK? Jeezus, makes it sound like pregnancy is an affliction...

Lmfao, the devils advocate would never in modern WWE

Se7en the babysitter LOL!

4:22 where do I sign up for death by snu snu

8:54 Raven got banished in 2002 not 2001 and he lost the match to Tommy Dreamer not Chris Jericho. Raven later appeared on Heat paying a man $500 to eat a sandwhich he had stepped on. Maybe don't start with the foot sandwhich. He later agreed to drop it in a Backstage segment with GM Assistant Val Venis if it meant he had a chance to get back on Raw where he defeated Dreamer to get back on RAW on December 29th, 2002 and faced Jeff Hardy in 2003 for a Royal Rumble qualifying match. He wore a more generic attire to prove to Vince and management that he could be serious because they didn't get his gimmick. After the match he was released and appeared on TNA about 48 hours later attacking Jeff Jarrett.

I always heard that the Devil's Advocate gimmick died because O'Haire couldn't sto laughing when doing the gimmick live.

I can’t see Owen as The Game but still would have liked to see it

Can we get Bar Tender Baron Corbin a similar gimmick to devil's advocate?
