#2. Zach Gowen - Praised

Zach Gowen is a pro wrestler unlike others, who has just one leg after his left leg was amputated at the age of eight. Despite his disability, Gowen went on to become a pro wrestler and even featured heavily in WWE, feuding with Vince McMahon himself!
Gowen, in a recent interview with Chris van Vliet, thanked the WWE Chairman for showing faith in him, while also helping him buy prosthetic legs and funding his drug rehab.
"I want to tell my truth and my story and it's 'Thank you, Vince'. He gave a kid who was on his deathbed who was losing his leg to cancer, 10 years later I'm in the ring with Hulk Hogan and living out my childhood fantasy and inspiring others.
"He also gave me legs to walk on and 10 years after that, he's saving my life and now I get to be a 36-year old father of two and now I can affect other people's lives with what I do in all of my work whether it's speaking, yoga, wrestling or whatever it is," said Gowen, in an interview with Chris van Vliet (H/T WrestlingInc).
