#7 Mr. Kennedy

Paul Heyman, the former ECW mastermind immediately saw dollar signs in Kennedy early on and pushed for him to get called up to the main roster. Kennedy made his main roster debut in late 2005 and tore through the competition.

Kennedy soon suffered an injury but returned in 2006 and feuded with Batista and The Undertaker. Kennedy was on a roll and won the Money In The Bank ladder match at WrestleMania 23. His promos were some of the best in the business.

Charlotte Flair to return and wrestle a CURRENT CHAMPION?

Unfortunately for Kennedy, he suffered another injury and lost the Money In The Bank briefcase a few months later to Edge. After that it was a case of more bad luck for Kennedy, who repeatedly suffered injuries and had to take time off.

He was released from his contract on May 29th, 2009, just four days after making his return from his latest injury. This was reportedly because he dropped Randy Orton on his head and shoulders with a back suplex during his comeback match.

The man WWE were positioning as a top guy had had his last push and his place in the company.
