You're right about RVD being terribly used - but then, with the exception of Mysterio and perhaps Eddie at a stretch, which former WCW or ECW employee who defected after the Invasion angle has been well used by the E? Vince loves ****ing all over the memories of WCW and ECW, so it's no surprise. Real shame RVD decided to **** up his own WWE title reign though, we'll never know what would have happened otherwise.
I thought Booker T (just about, though buried towards the end) and Goldberg were relatively well used, but I cannot think of a single ECW employee who has done anything of any note. Shame really, as guys like Tajiri who were awesome in the ring were just relegated to being jobbers or stupid heels most of the time. You could argue that Y2J was well used, though equally you could formulate the argument that he was wasted a lot of the time, depending on which side of the coin you look at.
Actually, you are right about there being several WCW guys who have been well used. It's easy to forget just how many guys have WCW history, really. But yeah, ECW was a better example. Every time RVD got over huge, his momentum would get crushed by someone more WWE through and through.
Usually HHH, somewhat unsuprisingly.
Haha, indeed. Before you can say "time to play the Game", he's pinned three midcarders in two minutes and beaten the tag champs in a handicap match, all the while managing to rub it in on everyone else that he gets to go home to Stephanie McMahon every night.
What it said.
