Mean Mark.
Booker got treated like crap (punked by Rock, HHH…) but managed to turn things around and had a lot of upper mid card success.

Goldberg was the only one I could think of who came in after wcw went under and was booked well
Steiner - this one may have been Scott's fault if I'm being honest as he just wasn't in shape to do much with, still he was booked to lose to HHH in his first match in so....
Booker T - was mid card for YEARS before finally getting recognized with a comedy king gimmick and the title
DDP - instantly buried and booked like a chump
Sting - 0-2 and had his neck broken, the match vs HHH was the weirdest thing I've ever seen in terms of the booking and commentary I mean wtf.
Vader - buried by HBK mainly
Most of the ECW guys who came in I felt were used at about their level which was mid card, can guys like the dudleys and rvd really complain about their booking?

People blame Scott Steiner for being in bad shape, but he was booked terribly too. They booked him as a face to get squashed by HHH, stupidest thing ever.
Also, no need to take it so personally. It's an internet message forum, don't get riled so easily. It's not that serious.

My point is that's not entirely true and yeah there have been some from WCW and ECW that didn't go over well, but I gave you a list who did and then you decided to clarify that it had to be AFTER WCW collapse in order for it to be more people that Vince screwed up, but regardless if it was before or after WCW, there were quite a few people from the competition that went over well.Um, no, that was a great point.

Do we know if Scott was originally supposed to get his win back over HHH.
Vince knew Scott as well so I'm just not totally sure that he was planned on being buried.

Rey Mysterio is probably the most successful former WCW guy signed by WWE after March of '01. He's had a great run with the company.
