Your favorite short lived superstars?
You can still like Trent I'm not saying you shouldn't. I just fellt like pointing out that Trent is still active, just not in the WWE.
Also Cactus Jack is not a short term wrestler. Mick Foley was active for nearly 20 years under all his characters.

I loved that he wasn't a typical heel when he showed up. He was just a guy from the Middle East who wanted to break down stereotypes about his people after 9/11. Obviously he was still treated like shit by the fans which to me was hilarious and sad at the same time. It was a great job by WWE of holding up a mirror for the fans to look at themselves in, and i hope they were ashamed.
eventually of course he became an over the top terrorist type gimmick, which would have been awesome but ofc UPN is Blue and still ran the episode of SD in the UK that had him attacking the Undertaker the same day as those terrorist attacks there... BRILLIANT. I still think they could have salvaged it without completely pulling the plug.
I'm sure his star would have dimmed by now, but he could still be a midcard staple as a heel. On a roster with so much blandness he would really stick out

Finlay had a short lived career? He wrestled in the E for 5 years how was that short plus he was wrestling about 30 years before that. I'm surprised no-one has mentioned Brock's initial run yet, he was what 2 years into his career? I know he held a lot of title but if Finlay breaks one criteria Brock smashed that one IMO.

Daivari was his manager, and no he had no affiliation w/ Khali to my knowledge.

True, but did Finlay win any major titles? Serious question, because I wouldn't remember. Brock was short lived, but like I said, I stated guys who did NOT win major titles and did NOT come back into the WWE ring again. Brock did both.
Also yes, daivari is the one I was thinking about.

He was US Champ in 05, he isn't shortlived lol. Underrated absolutely, I'll throw Regal in there as well. He never won a major title and hasn't returned to the ring.
