I'm thinking more of "retired" wrestlers or managers.
Arn - was around for a bit, then Cody left.
Jake - got sick, but even before then wasn't doing much.
Tully - here and gone in a flash.
Big Show - commentary on dark?
Mark Henry - "Time for the main event" and what else?
Regal - had the BBC for a short bit.
Jericho and Jarrett both had more wrestling in them. CM Phil was "retired", but everyone knew he would wrestle again.
It just seems Tony hires these people and then after the 1st couple weeks, they fade away.
Wonder if Vince could "release" Mae Young and have Tony sign her...
as far as Henry and Big Show goes, that wasn't so much the reason they were signed. Apparently the presence of them both has been instrumental in getting some of the new tv deals they have been getting.
With them it was more about signing two big (literally) recognisable names to wheel out to tv execs.
