10 WWE superstars who deserved better than they got

Lance Storm

Lance Storm

Lance Storm was the first wrestler that Chris Jericho met when he joined the Dungeon for learning wrestling. Throughout his autobiographies, Jericho has said about how brilliant Lance is as a wrestler and all the praise that came out of Jericho’s pen was rightfully deserved by Lance.

Just like Goldust, Lance was one of the most consistent wrestlers in the business back then but he was stuck in the mid-card throughout his career. The former Intercontinental Champion never got the push that he deserved and ended up being just another mid-card guy.

He currently trains superstars in his own Wrestling school in Canada and is probably training the next big thing as you read this.

Bret Hart

Bret Hart

The reason for Bret Hart’s inclusion in the list is the Montreal Screwjob. Bret was the top wrestler of WWE back in the 90s and Vince McMahon tried to keep him rooted to WWE with a 20-year contract. Bret’s character however soon cooled down and when an offer from WCW came around, both Vince and Bret decided that it was better for Bret to leave.

The story till this far is sunshine and rainbows, but it turned nasty at Montreal. What Vince did that night was not something Bret deserved as he had agreed to forfeit the WWE championship before leaving for WCW. Bret’s career never recovered after the Screwjob and the fans missed out on a lot of potential show-stealing matches due to the same.
