#6 Who

The late Jim Neidhart is a pro wrestling legend. A 2-time tag-team champion alongside Bret Hart and WWE Hall of Famer, Neidhart carved out his own legacy in pro wrestling. However, one part of his career that is often forgotten, is his brief run as Who in 1996.

He made his debut as Who on an episode of Superstars in 1996, with the gimmick seemingly only be there so Jerry Lawler could cackle and crack Who jokes (Who won the match?) on commentary. To pretty much no ones surprise, the gimmick did not get any traction, and Who made his last televised appearance two months later.

#5 Tekno Team 2000

We move on to our only tag-team on this list - Tekno Team 2000, who were deemed the tag-team of the future when they made their WWE debut in 1994. Their match gear was silver, clearly what people would be wearing in the distant year that was the new millennium.

Troy and Travis’ WWE run didn’t last long. Neither men were especially gifted in the ring and the gimmick was dead on arrival. Their push fizzled soon after their debut and they were gone by July 1995. They briefly returned in 1996 and this run, if possible, was even less successful.
