Speaking on his podcast, Hardy stated that Test had the ability to become a world champion in WWE.
"100 percent,” Hardy said. “He was an extremely talented athlete. He could do anything, on top of being a big guy that had this killer look. He was extremely strong, powerful, but he was also very fast, agile. He literally could do anything." H/T Sportskeeda
During his time with the company, Test was able to capture every title on offer, except the coveted WWE Championship.
