10 Giants Who Failed In WWE
WWE can't love every big man
1. Nailz
80s journeyman Kevin Wacholz showed up in WWE rings in 1992 as a character that intrigued right from the off.
Nailz was an ex-convict who claimed to have been abused by the Big Boss Man during his time in the slammer, while also maintaining that he was innocent of the crimes he was accused of.
Though he ultimately lost the feud with the man from Cobb County, Georgia, WWE had big plans for the big man and placed him in a feud with The Undertaker.
Their upcoming clash was even promoted on the cover of the WWE Magazine, but the match never happened.
Wacholz cornered Vince McMahon backstage at a television taping and first verbally and then physically threatened him over what he perceived to be an insufficient payoff for his match with Virgil at that year’s SummerSlam.
Needless to say, he was immediately fired for his actions and, outside of one appearance in WCW, practically vanished.
