5. MANTAUR(MICHAEL HALAC)

Mantaur was is one of the more unique gimmicks in the history of WWE.

Halac stated in the lawsuit that he was assigned a half bull, half human gimmick and was to always act like an animal. He explains that he was to do as he was told and that he was once told to keep his eyes and ears open at all times, but more importantly, keep your mouth shut.

Michael also says he sustained many concussions and other serious injuries which require him to take pain medication daily. He has limited neck mobility and range of motion in his neck. He also stated that he cannot feel sensation in his fingers and arms, which is going to require surgery to correct.

Halac said his last royalty check that he received was in the amount of $105, which he received in November of 2015.
