In recent weeks we've seen more and more of The Radicals, but less and less of them together as a group. The reasoning behind it is that the WWF is looking to push the men individually. The first sign of this was that each member of The Radicals won singles WWF gold (besides Saturn).
Eddie Guererro and Chris Benoit have had the most success so far, Eddie moreso though because not only did he win a major title but he's also got Chyna as a manager and has the great 'Latino Heat' gimmick. Benoit has put on some great matches, but has yet to find an angle that's done really well. With his skills, you know something is going to eventually click.
As far as Malekno, they're going to continue to establish him as a strong mat wrestler. Its only a matter of time until he's made his mark on the Light Heavyweight division and is ready to step up to feud with guys like Chris Jericho.
Saturn is the only guy who has had limited success since his WWF arrival. Without a gimmick or interview time, the crowd is usually silent during his matches. {*Minor Spoiler*} On SmackDown! tonight we'll see him and Dean Malenko go at it, with Saturn the one turning face. He's also a great talent so hopefully he'll get over as well.
