And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

to be fair, the WWE only had him for for about 6 months before he retired from wrestling to take care of his family

This is true except they called him Marcus Cor Von, put him on ECW, and stuck him on the New Breed as a heel underling to Elijah Burke.

It also didn't help that when he first came in they dubbed him Marquis (pronounced "Marcus") Cor Von

BAEST MODE!!!
Monty was going to have trouble in any era until basically the last few years. He started late for Vince's usual standard because of his football career. He didn't debut until he was 30 and didn't have a lot of hype behind him until he was 35 which is way too old for Vince until recently. Even at 35 he was still a little green in the ring but could make it work with the right opponent. He wasn't that tall, so he wouldn't have gotten in based on size when they were looking for 6'2 250 lb+ guys. And well, he doesn't seem like someone Vince would push. He'd probably end up as a midcard guy in WCW and it was going to be tough for him to overcome the racism in the business.

This moment in time is really his first chance to really succeed because he has the right size and charisma for today with enough athleticism that there's plenty of guys he could work with even if he never developed completely.

Most recently he got some play for posting a fake graphic of OC vs Minoru Suzuki with the display name of Tomy Khan and getting the English NJPW Twitter to retweet it. (And, like, we just had OC vs Shibata, so it's not like it's a stretch that Tony would book MiSu to wrestle for the Atlantic belt)
