Ole Anderson
One of the best tag team wrestlers in wrestling history, Ole Anderson caught a break because of his looks.  No, it wasn’t because he was exceptionally good looking (he wasn’t) but because he looked like Gene and Lars Anderson.

In becoming an “Anderson”, Ole Anderson took on a no nonsense tear down your opponent one limb at a time approach.  Ole toiled in various tag teams for years reaching his apex as a member of the original Four Horseman in the NWA.  Ole may have been a good wrestler, but with no WWE association and the high amount of enemies he has made over the years, the original Rock has a limited shot.
