5 WCW stars Vince McMahon never signed after buying the company

#1 Shark Boy

Shark Boy

Shark Boy first gained recognition while appearing at the Brian Pillman memorial shows. He was signed to a contract by WCW in 1999. His brief stint saw him making various appearances on WCW Thunder and WCW Saturday Night, before being released in early 2000.

An incredible high-flyer, Shark Boy wasn't used to his fullest potential in WCW. He never got the chance to perform in WWE and made his way to IMPACT Wrestling (formerly known as TNA) on July 31, 2002. He lost to Jimmy Rave in his debut match in TNA. For more than a decade, Shark Boy remained a mainstay in TNA and proved his mettle in the squared circle during his stint there.

He requested his release from TNA in early 2011 and was granted the same. Shark Boy went on to make several appearances for the company over the next four years. He could have had some incredible matches against the likes of Rey Mysterio, Chavo Guerrero, and Tajiri in WWE in the early 2000s when the Cruiserweight division was on fire.
