Why Mark Jindrak Got Kicked Out Of Evolution By Triple H 

I mean to be fair, if I had to choose between Jindrak or Batista, I think Trips made the right choice

Gotta suck for Jindrak...both his tag partners(Sean O'Hare and Lance Cade) died young

I am very impressed with Mark's attitude, maturity, and insight. No bitterness or hate.

Orton stopped at my McDonald’s in Newburyport MA one time with Cena, Shelton Benjamin and someone else. Ordered like 20 McDoubles. He’s actually a clown, funniest dude I’ve ever met.

I’m surprised WWE didn’t try to get him back at some point. He had so much potential.

Those young WCW guys never got a chance, they could have been great. O’Hare, Stasiack, Jindrak, etc

At least jindrak admits that he was immature for that type of hype! Most people don’t realize how immature they were at certain times in their life!

See I've heard different accounts of what really happened. Batista has said that he was always the initial choice, but then when he got injured they were going to replace him with Jindrak until HHH realized how immature he was and he was getting Randy in trouble so they remained patient and stuck it out with Dave.

Triple H is the game he married Stephanie McMahon and had a lot more backstage influence than some of the other guys he is the cerebral assassin

I would love to hear more stories from him regarding CMLL. He had a weird exit from the promotion after being a big star there. What I remember is that he was the world heavyweight champion there, but he got injured and eventually left, vacating the title. EDIT - he did talk about it, somewhat. Basically, the Mexican peso got devalued hard over time.

It was never going to work, for Jindrak, O'Haire, Palumbo, etc. Vince and his crew saw them as WCW scrubs, and since they never had time to get truly over in WCW and draw, that opinion wasn't going to change. Lower mid-card (where Palumbo got to) was the best they could have hoped for in WWE. Their biggest mistake was opting to go to the Power Plant instead of WWE developmental.

Mark Jindrak got more opportunities in México like AAA and CMLL, he became a World Heavyweight Champion, he appeared in soap operas and the latinas loved him. No doubt he's the Best. He is a head of his time. It would be interesting if Mark went to NJPW in his prime.

I’m assuming this all happened after Batista got injured in the early part of 2003 when Evolution officially formed in January of that year. Cause in the documentary during that time Batista was recovering they started considering Jindrak as a replacement. Cause Batista said it pissed him off how people thought he was replacing Jindrak when he was originally chosen for the group.

didn't know that Dave Meltzer was suppose to be part of evolution

They made the right choice there. Batista is more mature than Jindrak at the time. They already have a 23 year old Orton and they don't need another one to babysit. Also most people don't realize that Batista is a year older than Triple H.

Loved Jindrak & O'haire! Also was a fan of "Above Average" Mike Sanders

Mark Jindrak should've been the fifth man Evolution could've done it Ric, HHH, Orton, Batista & Jindrak. It would've worked they could've made Batista & Jindrak a tag team!

Jindrak has the highest vertical leap in WWE history. 42 inches. His college basketball background really came in handy with that one 😅

Mark Jindrak is a class act..World class athlete. One of my favorite wrestlers in the business.

The Reflection of perfection !!!!! I Stil remember this gimmick

Sounds like HHH needed to lighten up a little lol

He was never officially in evolution, he was just considered and shooting the promo vignettes while batista was hurt

Mark Jindrak, Guardian of the Galaxy lol.

If jindrak wasn't immature and wasn't kicked out of evolution, imagine where his career would of went

They made the right choice… and let’s be honest we don’t often say that about WWE

The reflection of perfection

Sounds like H Ah Needed his shine Ah sounds like H Ah said no Ah send him to the other brand ah

It would have been interesting to see Mark Jindrak as part of Evolution even if it was for a short time, it would have been cool in the storyline if he was a member and then later on everyone turns on him out as soon as Batista returned. Everything worked out for the best and all due respect to Mark Jindrak, a very talented guy but he sadly wasn't a great fit for the group. Batista looked the part and he fit the monster enforcer perfectly. Great to see Jindrak looking well and having a very successful career in Mexico

What a lot of people don't realize is that the photo of Jindrak with HHH, Flair and Orton was taken AFTER Batista joined Evolution, he got injured so they wanted to replace him with Jindrak but that obviously didn't pan out.

Mark has a good head on his shoulders not bitter I love that. If this was Ryback it would be poor me poor me.

In my perfect timeline, both Batista and Mark Jindrak would join the Evolution stable, with Mark going after the hardcore title.

Kevin Nash has an story about Jindrak and Orton on Kliq This and it is hilarious😂😂😂

🤯🤯 Mark Jindrax The Destroyer

They was all waiting for Batista!

Jindrak looks like Meltzer

Imagine if Day chose jindrak n made evolution a 5 Man group

Oh kwap. They actually got Jindrak on here

Jindrak would’ve been sick!!!

aint nothing stupid about getting a slushpuppie! All we got my way are boring ICE-EES

you can still return on Royal Rumble if you want to

As a big fan of the later WCW years 1999-2001 I always tho the Trillers jindrak O’Hare Palumbo were ahead of their time 6’5 dudes doing cruiserweight style wrestling but Jindrak got a Mania match so it wasn’t that bad of a run

Kane's son

Despite that happening I wish they gave jindrak something decent other than a dirty win over Guerrero, I’ve been doing some research as a pro wrestler myself and only found that match against Guerrero as a win, anyone else know some other big wins jindrak had?

Jindrak had the charisma and presence of a plank of wood. That's why wrestling didn't work out for him. That simple.

Lol at Randy Ortan being top 5 all time. Don’t get me wrong he’s good and all but he only stands out because of what he has been surrounded by for most of his career.

Wwe wasted a huge opportunity w him, o’haire, polumbo. Guys that size and athleticism dont grow on trees anymore

Should be 5 evolution

batista was the right choice

To be fair he was never an official member to be kicked out in the first place

Still seems like an annoying younger brother. TripleH has a great eye for seeing talent so good choice on taking in Batista!

Because he was DIRT … plain and simple

Triple H burying someone using backstage politics? Whatever next.

Wait he was in evolution

This dude could have been the next veer mahan

Imagine if blue meanie was in the group in full gimmick lmfao

Cuz he aint sean ohaire or luther reigns

It's a mystery

gotta suck for Jindrak so much to see what being in Evolution brought to Batista's life... being in Evolution basically gave him multiple title runs, huge money, big storylines, wrestlemania main events... and also gave him a big enough name to make the transition into Hollywood... before Evolution, Batista was nothing... he was just D-Von's enforcer "Deacon Batista"... basically walking around with a "brick" around his neck, wearing make-up and not saying a word... 🤣😅 in wrestling, being a good athlete and a good wrestler is important... but above all you have to be smart and make good and smart decisions... (Triple H is the best example of that) and not doing everything he could to be inside the circle of guys like Ric Flair and Triple H, HAVING ALREADY VINCE'S BLESSING, was the stupidest and most idiotic thing he could have ever done... that decision alone fucked up his entire wwe career and the posibilites that could have come after it...

batista drew money jindrak i don't believe would have.

always like his reflection of perfection gimmick.....would have preferred him over blandy boreton

Ortons fucked over a lot of people, he only cares what guys can do for him then he drops them

I couldn't ride with someone like Triple H. You can be yourself around him & he expects you to talk business all the time. Sorry I rather travel alone

I would've kicked Orton out of evolution and keep Mark. Orton was great on his own.

Jindrak doesn't have the IT factor or the look.

Its not the only career he buried, been at it for decades

Rightfully so.

Randy orton is nowhere near the top 5 of all time

batista was the right choice
