I liked Storm's in ring work in every company I've seen him in.  He could be a little dull, but I found his work in WCW to be quite fun, especially his winning the US Title, Cruiserweight Title, and Hardcore Title, then re-naming them the Canadian Heavyweight Title, The 100kg and Under Title, and the Saskatchewan Hardcore International Title.

I liked that WCW run too but honestly that's too small a part of an otherwise rather forgettable career.

I wouldn't say he had a 'forgettable' run.  He did some stuff in ECW, The Impact Players and such.  And The Un-Americans in WWE.  Not great singles/solo success, but success.  Steady career, titles.

I agree he had success but still feel most of it was in teams and factions and I personally don't consider him at the same level as the others on the list.

I'd agree, he isn't at the same level.  But some people work best in factions and stables, which is ashame, really.  Jim Neidhart would be one I'd throw in there.  Marty Jannetty too.  Great in teams and stables, but solo, not as much.

Personally, I felt that in the initial stages of WWE's "Brand Extension" storyline, with the Raw/Smackdown split, Storm should've gotten a major push on Smackdown as a singles.  He got one in teams, but WWE completely mis-marketed him, first as a janitor at WWE New York, looking for a job, then as an Un-American in post 9/11, then as "Boring."  At the time, Smackdown was the vastly better written show, focusing on great WRESTLERS, showcasing great matches with guys like Benoit, Guerrero, Edge, Jericho, Christian, Mysterio, Brock Lesnar, Tajiri, Kurt Angle, John Cena, Haas, Benjamin and Chavo Guerrero.  If they had some kinda way to incorporate Storm, even without a 'title', but having him in the mix to help elevate the others, he ultimately could've found a following, with a push of maybe the US Title.  Sad, really, because if Mysterio and Benoit could be pushed to the top with rather dull personalities, so could Storm.  Hell, Bob Backlund carried the belt for 6 years and was a rather dull character.  Sure, he was a draw, but I'm saying.

Actually you'd be surprised just how popular Backlund really was in his day. There's a reason you're kept champ for that long- it's because you draw a crowd and Backlund did especially in New York. He was very much an All-American hero, kind of like a face version of Kurt Angle in his era.

I know he was quite popular, but I'm saying, he did make a boring interview at times.  Not taking away his popularity or abitlies as a wrestler.  Just, I seen some things he did, and was a great in ring competitor but seemed to carry himself in interviews as a boring guy. Wink

I'll throw a save Snuka's way for his terrific cage wars with Magnificent Muraco & Bob Backlund and for his too short-lived feud with Piper. He wasn't very good on the microphone but was still perhaps the most popular guy after Hogan in his day.

I like Snuka.  He was quite popular and I liked him when I was younger.  But, I like the others just a bit more.  I threw a quick save to Storm.  An underrated performer who seemed to get stuck with being a tag competitor, but excelled a bit too much in teams and not enough on a solo run.
