Who are some of the biggest busts in EAW history. Like those who failed to live up to their potential.

Chris Hessian and cena29

Hessian

Chris Hessian and Devan Dubian... nice job Starr.

Nick Angel
Xavier McCoy
Colin Kaline
Chris Hessian

Nick could have gone real far, but he just up and left, so there is that.

Colin just left once he won the world championship because he "enjoyed the chase instead of being champion".

Chris Hessian was probably the biggest though with him winning Grand Rampage and then, nothing.

I do not see how Devan Dubian is a bust though, he never really got a big push except being in the mid-card with the National Extreme and Elite Championships.

Well tbf, I had him pretty much set to win the EAW Championship in 2011 and he went inactive, he really could have been massive here so many times.

Dubian
Bobby Cash/Hessian
Moonlight Predator
King Kjors
Cena29
Eddie Mack for now.
DDD's apprentice that I forgot.
JC

Bonskippy. That kid was going places.

Thank you for putting me out of my misery. I was waiting for someone to mention me, this thread wouldn't have been complete without it. Most recent Bust of the Year not getting a mention would have been a bit odd imo.

But yeah, I think Dubian should get a mention. Similar story to myself, was almost given the title on a silver platter back on Voltage iirc and I think he had another chance later as well.

Since I joined, I would have to say Eddie Mack.

Hessian

I'd definitely say Hessian takes the top spot despite me not being here when he actually busted.

As much as I hate to say this one, Viper/Brian Daniels.

I take back Dub... for now.

Cyclone takes this pretty easily, bust big time once again.

Hessian!  Seriously, how can you bust after winning the GR?!

Thank you 

I'm not surprised most of you saw me as a bust, hope I'm able to turn that around with this run.

I think people are slightly making a bigger deal out of Hessians bust, yeah busting after winning GR is bad even if he wasn't the first choice to win it and all and he was being pushed hard (probably would have won the title off Kawa too at PFP) but I don't see how he takes this over Cy.

Cy literally got the biggest push ever in 2010, won gr, won the title at PFP and then proceeded to have a forgettable one month title reign, feuded with KD and didn't even beat him one on one, then beat DDD for the title and got fired while champion.

Then came back in 2011, quit right before T.I, came back months later to feud with Erik and again, went inactive and busted.

Then comes back in 2013, has a very good year and finally gets pushed into the main event fulltime and randomly goes inactive when he potentially could have won the title in 2014.

Biggest fail ever imo.

Eddie Mack is only a bigger bust than Chris Hessian because Nigey is actually a skillful writer and Bobby G's blubbery ass never was.

Also, if I can be a bust and still win two World Championships like Cyclone did, I'll take that any day over the rest of these guys.

Diamond Cage. It saddens me to say that since he's a cool guy but damn, right after he wins his first World Championship after all this time and then whatever happened ruined that.
