One of the toughest, most fearsome men to ever compete in a wrestling ring, Vader made his name in Japan before returning to the USA. He held the WCW title for a memorable run but never the WWE's big belt.
What may have held him back: By the time Vader made it to WWE, he was aging out of his prime and was no longer in the tremendous condition he'd been in during his Japan and WCW runs. He was also known to be somewhat difficult to work with, and had brawls with such luminaries as Paul Orndorff and Mick Foley.
