A jobber. Don't think they've ever had him win a single tournament match.

>>waisting HHH vs Rock in the first round

First of all, Gaytch was still a midcarder4Life back then.
Also, Gaytch was injured, and didn't show up
Bossman took his place and got pinned in 4 seconds
And btw, it's spelled "wasting" not "waisting", you retard.

Rock and HHH had spent most of 1998 wrestling each other. They had a huge rivalry

What's NJPW best tournament event of all time then?

Anonymous 8/17/2025, 7:48:24 PM No.18576787

The finalists were too obvious when Mankind’s first match was a 30 second squash and Rock’s was fucking 3 seconds. Keeping them both fresh to go the distance.
X-Pac vs Regal being a DCO meaning Austin just jumped to the final 4 and costing us a match was also a bit lame.
