Billy Gunn is best known for his time in WWF / WWE tag teams. As part of The Smoking Gunns, The New Age Outlaws and Billy & Chuck, Billy definitely found more success as a tag team wrestler when compared to his singles runs. The WWF tried to make Billy a singles star on more than one occasion though but each and every time, Billy was unable to achieve main event status.

When The Smoking Gunns broke up in 1996, Billy became a heel. His new character wasn't much different from his Smoking Gunns gimmick but this time, he portrayed a sort of "outlaw" cowboy. This singles run abruptly ended when Billy needed to take time off. When he came back, Billy was repackaged as "Rockabilly", the protégé of The Honky Tonk Man.. and this turned out to be a bad move. When Rockabilly didn't work out, Billy Gunn joined forces with Road Dogg Jesse James, and The New Age Outlaws were born.

Billy left the Outlaws and DX to try another singles run. Billy won the 1999 King of the Ring and he was placed into a big match with The Rock at SummerSlam. All signs pointed to bigger and better things for Badass Billy Gunn but again, it didn't work out. After reuniting with DX and leaving again, Billy came back as "The One" Billy Gunn. The One Billy Gunn captured the Intercontinental Championship but he dropped it again mere weeks later. It seemed like every time Billy had a chance to go alone, he could just never climb up the ladder and break into the WWF / WWE main event, and this video looks at all these solo runs throughout Billy's WWE career.
