#2 Don’t deserve - Rich Swann

Rich Swann made his WWE debut in 2015, and he began his WWE career with NXT. There he spent a year before getting called up to 205 Live.

There he became a one-time cruiserweight champion.

He held the title for over two months before finally dropping it to Neville at Royal Rumble 2017. After a few months of losing the title, Swann was arrested for domestic violence, which eventually resulted in WWE laying off Swann for violating the company’s zero-tolerance policy against domestic violence.

Following his release, Swann claimed he was ready for retirement. However, Swann signed a contract with Impact Wrestling.

Right now, we don’t know whether WWE will rehire Swann or not, but if they decide not to, then it is a smart choice because Swann made an unforgettable mistake.
