YMMV / Adam Rose

• Hilarious in Hindsight: While Rose's WWE career floundered, his conga line of "Rosebuds" ended up containing a number of performers who would on to far greater success than him. Reddit were in stitches over an old photo they dug up of Adam and his Rosebuds featuring (among others) Carmella, Dana Brooke, Zelina Vega, (possibly) James Ellsworth, Simon Gotch of The Vaudevillains, Elias and Braun Strowman and, most important of them all, the pixie-looking redhead in the blue tutu with the brightly-coloured hair ornaments. The same girl who was set to main-event WrestleMania and become the first woman to hold both the Raw and Smackdown Women's Championships! This is made even more hilarious when one remembers that the catalyst for Rose's Face–Heel Turn was that the Bunny from the Rosebuds was outshining him.
  Redditor: Adam Rose assembled the greatest amount of talent on one team since the nWo
• Never Live It Down: If there's one thing Adam Rose is mainly remembered for today, it's for having a Groupie Brigade gimmick in which seemingly everybody who played one of his "Rosebuds" went on to have a much more successful career than him.
• Retroactive Recognition: His "Rosebuds" feature a frankly ridiculous lineup of noteworthy future wrestling talent, as seen above.
• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: Probably would've been more over if he'd used his Leo Kruger character.
