Well, Randy Savage’s younger brother Lanny Poffo wasn’t just brought in for a look. The man was actually under contract for five years. Paid for five years and he wrestled just one match. Lanny was signed to a deal in 1995 as a favour to The Macho Man, who had purchased the rights to the Gorgeous George name/gimmick and believed Lanny was the guy to pull it off. 

Lanny, to his credit, dyed his hair and stayed in top shape to do so and was expecting a call at any time. He even showed up backstage unannounced on a couple of occasions to inquire if the bookers wanted him to actually earn his weekly paycheque. 

But the phone only rang once and Poffo only has a single documented WCW match to his credit – a dark match victory over Johnny West at the October 20, 1997, Nitro taping and the crowd apparently hated it.
