Curtis Axel always makes me sad because he could have been a great midcard hand.

Yeah, that one was a real missed opportunity. I'm glad he got his IC title win. But man that theme, the Curtis Axel name and everything. Guy was a good all-rounder.

Didn't they feed him to like Triple H & it was all downhill from there? Been a while since I watched anything from that time period

Oh, I'm remembering that wrong then. Good job Haitch

One by Count-Out and then the other because Vince fucked HHH over lel

 

[Hoss]

I don't recall Axel ever actually having much momentum

 

[Marty McFourth]

That makes it even more of a missed opportunity, I always remembered HHH beating him for some reason lol

They tried to give him some big spots but I feel like they never got the desired response

He never really did because they used him as job fodder for the whole Heyman/Punk story.

Okay I better start working on this btb

It was pretty quiet when he got announced as a Heyman guy if I'm remembering right. I think a lot of people were expecting someone bigger, but I did think he was very solid overall.

 

[Marty McFourth]

Crowd popped pretty nicely when he won the IC title, I just wish he'd stayed around the scene a bit longer as he was a good guy for it
