#1 Failed initially: EC3

EC3 once worked for WWE as a developmental talent in NXT. He had the potential to become the next breakout wrestler, but WWE didn’t think so. After four years of working with WWE, he got released and then joined TNA.

Much like the other Superstars mentioned in this article, EC3 too received a significant push in this promotion, and he also managed to become TNA World Heavyweight Champion. Seeing his performance, WWE offered him a contract which he accepted. After working in NXT for some months, Triple H brought him to the main roster where he is getting lost among other Superstars.

Even though EC3 has gotten a victory over Dean Ambrose, WWE doesn’t seem to have any further plans for him which is why he is still not thriving as a Superstar. Does this mean EC3 will flop in WWE once again? Considering the current situation, this is likely to happen.
