10 Wrestlers WWE Gave Up On Too Quickly
10 wrestlers WWE gave up on too soon
2. Kizarny
Sinn Bodhi – a longtime friend of Edge and Christian who had wrestled regularly for TNA as a member of the New Church stable – had been on WWE’s radar for a while doing dark matches and such before finally inking a developmental deal in July of 2007.
After a year of hard work in the sticky Florida heat, Bodhi was pitched an idea for him to do on the main roster. Kizarny! It’s carny for ‘carny’, get it? Well, Bodhi got it and hated it but, not one to turn down a chance at superstardom, grabbed it with both hands.
Kizarny vignettes began playing in October of 2008, showing the character at a carnival and speaking in carny. It may have been a rather lame inside joke, but the fact that Vince McMahon himself pitched the idea and WWE invested the time and effort in promoting the character bode well. As did a debut victory over the luckless MVP on the first SmackDown of 2009. Sadly, that would be one of a grand total of two televised matches for Kizarny (the other being the second man eliminated in a battle royal), before he wiz-as fiz-ired.
