* ScrewedByTheNetwork: He's long been considered one of the biggest underachievers in wrestling relative to how hard he was pushed. He never beat Flair for the NWA or WCW World Heavyweight Titles, and he failed at beating Yokozuna at both ''[=SummerSlam=] 93'' and at ''[=WrestleMania=] X.'' In terms of Flair, he was blocked due to political infighting involving Flair, Wrestling/DustyRhodes and Jim Herd. He was a two-time WCW World Heavyweight Champion, though neither of those wins really amounted to anything. He defeated Barry Windham for the vacant title, due to Herd firing Flair shortly before the show, at ''WCW The Great American Bash 91'' in July, and lost it to Sting in February at ''WCW [=SuperBrawl=] II.'' He defeated Hogan for the title on the August 4, 1997 ''Nitro''...and lost it back five days later at the ''Road Wild 97'' [=PPV=]. While beating Hogan was a veritable AwesomeMomentOfCrowning by its own right, it ultimately accomplished nothing, since WCW was supposed to have been building to Sting defeating Hogan for the title. It's entirely possible that this contributed to his general lack of effort by the late 1990s
