249. Marc Mero

Marc Mero’s first incarnation in WCW as Johnny B. Badd had such an awful beginning it is hard to imagine he could ever overcome it.  Mero actually got over by playing the character so over the top, but while he was doing it fans were really taking notice of the improvement in his in ring skills.  By 1994, he was one of the best wrestlers on the WCW roster and his string of Television Titles was well deserved.  He was still very talented in WWE, but he essentially sacrificed his career for his then wife, Sable by putting her over and helping to make her one of the biggest stars that Vince had at the time.  Marc Mero could be considered for the Hall for the above reasons, but his anti WWE comments following the Chris Benoit death may have prevented that from ever happening.
