TNA had Okada looking like a Sims burglar
And now he is working with literal ratings kiĺlers, The Young Bucks
AEW got Okada looking like Malcom Landgraab 😂
TNA had Okada looking like Kato.
The whole point of a lot of the western excursions the Japanese wrestlers get sent on is to learn gimmicks and the like since it’s not as prevalent in Japan. So a lot of the foreign guys when they’re starting out get weird or dumb gimmicks for a while.
I want Joe to challenge Okada for the Continental Crown just hear Joe say in a promo, “if you step in the ring with me, I’ll turn you back into my little sidekick.”
Yes!
Not only did Okada insist on returning to TNA as part of his NJPW Farewell Tour, he straight up paid respect to the promotion and their fans during his goodbye despite how embarrassing his run during excursion was there. I genuinely think he was still grateful for what he learned there, even if it was what he DIDN'T want to be during his time in the business. The dude is a class act, through and through.
My age too which actually blew my mind. I grew up watching him but hes been going in the ring since his teens and that would not of been on TV I believe. Crazy to think if he lived near where I did we likely would of Graduated School together if the same school.
Honorable mention goes to Dustin Rhodes and his Black Reign gimmick.
Apparently Dustin won’t even acknowledge his run as Reign if you bring it up to him.
@@Evs78101 Can't say that I blame him. It was a dark time in his life.
A mix of him having a dark time in his life, not being in good shape, and booking/presentation made that time terrible. But the inherent idea of "Let's create a darker version of Goldust" is something with potential.
Idk if this is still true but at one point he would block anyone who mentioned that gimmick on Twitter
Lance hoyt was awesome in TNA his match with abyss at TNA sacrifice 2005 was fantasic.
That doesn't fit their narrative
@@sean_gmc5280of course it doest fit their narrative lol they just want to be negative about everything they just can't stay positive always negative negative finally someone said the truth 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
1:34 never ask Russo what he thinks
What the hell has Cabana done in AEW??
I am glad I am not the only one thinking this.
BTE mostly and the odd bit on ROH. Can’t remember seeing him actually on AEW TV
Start shite with Punk.
Lance Archer is insanely underrated, should have been a champion of some sort in AEW by now.
Remember that scene where Mr. Burns wanted to hire Frank Grimes to be his executive vice president, but then when Grimes is finally hired by the power plant, Burns had already moved on to wanting to hire a heroic dog for the spot, forgetting about Grimes, and just sticking him “somewhere” in the plant?
That is every wrestling executive ever.
If only TNA had convinced the Young Bucks to quit. I can only wish.
Such an absurd thing to say. Whether you enjoy AEW or the Bucks itself, it's undeniable that the existence of AEW is a net positive for wrestling in general...
TNA was my introduction to Eddie Kingston
What about the over 60 wrestlers AEW has wasted?
It's good to see Cultaholic doing a top 10 video that isn't WWE, although I feel the opposite since I feel like some guys who has transitioned from TNA to AEW e.g. Brian Cage & the Blade are being wasted on AEW.
Cage feuding with Swerve now, hopefully it’s a good fire and he continues to get pushed after
Ethan Page
Plus The Hardys, Johnny TV, Taya Valkyrie,Kiera Hogan, The Bunny, Santana & Ortiz, Big Bill have been or are being wasted by AEW. Plus Fenix, Penta and Vance Archer haven’t been used to their full potential either.
@luvmusicutb I agree, especially the Lucha Bros since you've got Pentagon who's badass to watch, yet there's that Alex Abrahantes who I feel like is holding Pentagon back from his full potential.
The fact that Archer has really not got a proper push is weird? Don't see many guys his size if any move like him.
Maybe the fact he only says "everybody dies" holds him back but dude is such a monster!
Now you should do a video called 10 TNA Stars WASTED by AEW Wrestling.
101 stars wasted by AEW
Whole 11 minutes? Fastest ive been yet.
Most of this list is guys who almost nobody knew of when they went to TNA and then got bigger afterwards. Cody did one taping. Kingston did the best storyline of his career in TNA. None of these guys were wasted. They were used in a way that fit their status at the time. It's not like TNA could see the future.
Agreed. Wasted implies they were already known and they didn't do anything with them.
Yea, most of this list is wrestler got a try out early in their career and either weren't signed or chose not to sign as opposed to bein "wasted" like the title implies.
How is Trent star?
The young bucks were booked in tna like they should be and that’s a mid card tag team, cause that’s what they are and more people are seeing it
Okay whatever you say 🙄
@@gordonjamescowiestthey're not good
lol cry me a river 😂
Cody tried to help Brandi...yet, that went nowhere
Lance Hoyt, The Young Bucks, Eddie Kingston, Cody Rhodes, Eddie Kingston, Okada And Don't Get Me Started With Dustin Rhodes's Black Reign Gimmick In TNA.
Bucks were so good in TNA but they kept losing it's almost laughable
@@studentNEET319 They were and still are awful 😂
@@syko2695 can confirm,but the matches with MCMG were a staple in my childhood
@@studentNEET319 To each their own, personally I was watching in that period because of Kurt Angle and AJ Styles
You said Eddie Kingston twice.
Follow up list, 10 AEW Stars Wasted by AEW
Their time together in TNA is when the Bucks and Okada became friends, leading to the Bucks in NJPW and Okada later joining AEW.
The word "stars" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in this list...
Kingston in DCC got wasted when the new management came in, and they just got lost. I hardly see his second run as a waste. That was TNA in its rebuilding stage, he was better off still working elsewhere at the same time like evolve etc
Okada was in TNA when Pope Elijah Burke was the Rain Maker, I wonder If that's where Okada got it.
I don't like AEW's product, but i like that they made wwe improve it's product considerably, now that wrestling is so good
Eddie Kingston had good run in TNA..idk why put him into this list.. ermmm.. i also love aew but they wasted their talent just liked Jeff hardy,matt hardy, Allie the bunny, Christopher Daniel (curry man),
Thanks 🎉
Jeff Hardy is a former TNA wrestler that's being wasted in AEW
Dude got a DUI for a third time in 10 years just prior to a big match, had a rough match with the Young Bucks, and as much as I was a big Hardy fan growing up, he is lucky he wasn't let go multiple times over the years for most companies. Like that stuff is on him.
Thank you for bringing these repressed memories back. Especially the Kato from Green Hornet one. Damn you, now the Green Hornet movie is back in my memory.
I clearly remember how I catched the x-division title, sure
Colt Cabana a star lol
TNA also wastes talent? Wow I thought WWE is the only one that does that. 😅 I guess every promotion has that weakness huh. 😁
AEW "stars"
Begins with Colt "Never seen on TV" Cabana
Sorry, he is NOT a star in anyway
Not Punk killing a push by getting into an IRL scrap with another wrestler.
Can't imagine him ever doing that.
Cope or seethe
Mark
If real wrestlers were still around Perry would have gotten his ass handed to him, then would have been banished from the locker room until he grew up and learned to not go into business for himself
this list makes no sense lol
What do you mean?
It Makes Sense To Me Dammit.
I don't think Impact wasted Kingston, he did a good job
If Impact Wrestling had signed Jon Moxley there is a high potential that Moxley would be the only wrestler in History to hold the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship, the AEW World Championship, the WWE Championship and the Impact World Championship, but then The Shield may not have happened. Also Kazuchika Okada and Switchblade Jay White were wasted by Impact Wrestling. Kazuchika Okada was made to look like a Jobber and Switchblade Jay White was only brought in to bring Chris Bey and Ace Austin into Bullet Club so as Impact could say they have a Bullet Club in their wrestling promotion too.
you don't know what you're talking about dude
WARHORSE MENTIONED! (unintentionally)
It is weird to me that Lance Archer was never a bigger star than he was -- in TNA, or anywhere else. Good look/size, good ring work, good character work, always comes across as a real good guy irl. The dude's 47 years old so I can't hold it too hard against AEW for not pushing him harder, but man, he's always gonna be one of my "what if" guys.
Unfortunately most of these wrestlers would then go on to be wasted by AEW.
The only one I disagree with on this list is Mox. He had only one match which was a dark match and didn't make a difference in my opinion but to me, Nese and Kingston were screwed by TNA creative
Right, and Lance Archer isn't being wasted by AEW
He's 47.
@@davi0121 and?
@@davi0121I see your point, but I think with the schedule they have that’s not as much of an issue as it could be.
It’s almost as if TNA knew that an aging Kingston is better on the mic than wrestling. It’s also kind of a bold statement to say TNA wasted the Bucks when it’s been said by multiple people that they refused to take advice or criticisms from the vets on the roster. Seems more like they wasted TNA’s time.
Y’all didnt even mention the fact that Cody ended racism
This video jumped the shark immediately. Pretending AEW didn't completely fail to do anything with Colt Cabana is stooge shit.
Now Cody has finished the Story, he needs to finish the list. RODDY! Strong.
Hey Adam just wanna let u know that the font they are using for your name sucks! It looks like your name is ROAM not ADAM lol
This list is almost a list of talents wasted by TNA and AEW.
Best tag teams of all time. urm..... NO I've never seen a tag team worse than The Buck's untrained backyard idiots who can't tell a story, sink ratings, have worse go away heat than xpac, every match is the same. They are one of the worse tag teams in professional wrestling.
I thought that it said 10 AEW Stars Wasted By AEW. 😞
i remember seeing bucks in tna & watching bound for glory back in 2010(which i still have on dvd) I've been a fan on the bucks or generation me since😊
Same here.
Yea this list doesn’t look all that good when u start it off with cabana 😂
I remember The Green Hornet movie with Seth Rogen 🤮
How about 10 wwe wrestlers wasted by aew
Who knew TNA had it's own set of problems
Knew okada was number 1 lol
Make a list of Aew wrestlers wasted by Aew. I know it may be a 4 part series
Cultaholic probably won't do that, especially with how they are towards AEW.
TNA didn't waste The Bucks, they just saw them for what they were and used them accordingly. Garbage list.
And now AEW rarely does anything with people they get from TNA
This 10 wrestler all time tna wrestling failure not tna responsibility bigger failure
TNA basically wasted every major talent they have if ya look at where the company is now… thanks Dixie Carter
Lol lie AEW doesn’t do crap for Colt Cobana either
10 aew wrestlers who couldn’t get over in TNA.
Cm punk was the biggest bust in TNA. Couldn’t hang with the x division. He was so bad
Will TNA is going to be their competition anyways
yo this list is BS might want to try again
Hi everyone
Really, anyone who isn't Samoa Joe and is or has been in AEW can count towards this list
Eddie Kingston 🤘🤘🤘🤘
I wanted Trent? to win the X division title
Generation ME were used exactly the way the should. Losing to Eric Bischoff. Funnily enough, I think Easy E could legitimately beat Matt & Nick Jackson in real life even now
I forget which one of them it is, but the one YB that is always making the *douchyest* faces….so punchable.
Honestly they didn't really miss out with guevara
They honestly didn’t miss with most of these.
This video settles it. Pacitti needs to grow his hair out.
Is Cody considered an evp still?
Gosh I can't stand russo
Who the fuck is Colt Cabana?
TNA in its prime put out a product 100 times better than AEW. TNA as shit as it is the now, still puts out a better product than AEW. The only thing that keeps AEW going is that they can pay big names, which helps carry the pile of shit.
These guys just need to like what they like
Colt Cabana is boring and bland
Aew stars?😂
If TNA didn't start going downhill in 2006 they would of been a giant hitter in the wrestling world maybe neck and neck woth WWE
if my grandmother had wheels she'd be a bike
Lance Archer is still wasted tho, Eddie Kingston just isn't that good, The Bucks are the bucks (nuff said), Yes TNA did do Cody and Okada dirty
AEW stars? 😂 😂 😂
10 aew stars,wasted by aew
Too many to count.
This just further proves TNA could've been more popular if they just used these people the right way. Sometimes you gotta take a big swing miss or not. And again never ask Russo for advice
The young bucks were used as they should've been in TNA
AEW has 10 stars?
Nope we are not doing that with cody and lance especially Lance. Cody was trying to find his way in the llindies like a matt cardona just to name
Let me guess. Okada is number 1.
It is,The Rainmaker Okada is currently AEW along with the Young Bucks and Scapegoat man Jack perry
The bucks make me regret watching Dynamite... idk where you got "best work of their careers" You lost me.
That’s a fine.
(You can’t see it but I rolled my eyes.)
It’s astonishing to me that anyone would consider The Young Bucks talented.
It's more astonishing that your mother didn't swallow you
Title is kinda misleading
Now do ten aew wrestlers wasted by aew.....
nah
The Bucks are a horrible tag team. 😅
They are wasted no matter what F*ck the old bucks now and forever
People SHOULD rejoice that AEW is going on right now, not relentlessly shit on it just because it isn’t their alternative! AN alternative is better than NO alternative!!!
People shit on it because it was our best chance to bring back the professional wrestling that we all fell in love with, but ended up being a complete joke and failure
TNA is an alternative and thise video is being negative to them
When AEW first started, I was happy to see there was an alternative since the early days of AEW was fun to watch, but now it's changed & I feel like AEW right now isn't the same AEW from the early days, especially since now, there's more ex-WWE guys on the roster than guys from the indies or elsewhere.
@@hobnobbob8006 it isn’t a joke or a failure! There are many many AEW fans and they wouldn’t be running Wembley if it was a complete joke or failure! It is the professional wrestling we’ve fallen in love with. It just may not be the professional wrestling that YOU fell in love with and that’s ok.
@@leonturner2598 Lets look at the evidence. AEW's barely tops wwe's developmental brand in viewership. Its ratings are in the bin. There are no stars, half the roster is out injured, they have had numerous backstage issues/controversies, the womens division is a complete joke, the booking is laughable and makes no sense. There viewership numbers have not changed since its debut, AEW appeals to its 600k or so hardcore mark fanbase, and will never EVER get bigger. Its not professional wrestling, its indi wrestling with a budget. So if it was the 'wrestling' people have fallen in love with, then it would be more popular. Its a complete clown show, run for marks by marks
Sorry but most Stars of AEW got Over somewhere else before they were signed in AEW
Quite a few wrestlers on this list weren't properly utilized by AEW.
Colt Cabana has done next to nothing in the company.
Cody Rhodes left after the marks turned on him, and the decision to make it so he could never challenge for the AEW World Title was stupid.
Punk was fired because Tony Khan was too spineless to know how to control his employees, let his roster act like a bunch of teenagers, and then proceeded to get fire the biggest draw on his company, because he would rather favor a tag team that doesn't draw, and a guy who practically reeks of jobber.
And Okada? Maybe with enough time, but up till now he has done absolutely nothing!
How many bumps have you taken to qualify you to use the word marks?
