I think Awesome may end up winning this one. The gimmick was bad, yes, but it's even worse that it was with a guy like Awesome, who could have easily been huge.

As above.

Awesome was Lesnar before Lesnar made it famous.

Also, RTC were epic trolls, brilliant heat magnets.

That 70's guy has a shot to win this quadrant for me. Agree with above. Awesome fell in WCW's lap when they needed a star and they come up with this.

I don't even think RTC were a bad gimmick as they capatalized well on everything that was happening during the Attitude Era. It was one of the smarter things WWE has done to take advantage of something they already had going. If Stevie Richards didn't come off as such a midcard act during the entire thing maybe it could have been bigger.

Awesome was just given garbage.

Right to Censor was a great gimmick, really smartly done by WWE to take a shot at their detractors in that way.

70's Guy was a terrible gimmick and a waste of a great talent so it gets my vote.
