5 Jobbers you would rather see as Champion than Jinder Mahal 

5. Fandango/ Johnny Curtis

The gimmick that keeps on giving.

If there's one trait that WWE superstars ought to be rewarded for, it's tenacity. Anyone can work on their in-ring game or hire a voice coach to help with their mic skills, but the ability to constantly prove people wrong, no matter how bad a hand you are dealt, is a truly special talent.

This is how most people would describe Johnny Curtis. He, like many people on this list, appeared to have a promising career once upon a time. People had some awareness of his talents in the ring and were looking forward to what he was going to bring to the table.

After winning the fourth season of NXT, Curtis was essentially left out to dry. His gimmick ideas ranged from the unconvincing to the outright bizarre. Even when he was afforded a longer-term opportunity to get himself over on the main roster, it was as a ballroom dancer called Fandango.

The early signs were promising, defeating Chris Jericho in his debut match at Wrestlemania. He then went on to experience unlikely success following the 'Fandango-ing' trend where fans would sing along to his theme music while waving their arms up and down. The WWE missed the ball by not turning him babyface here, instead of having him reject fan support when he needed it most.

The Fandango character soon became another jobber and it felt like Curtis wasn't too far away from the dreaded 'future endeavors' letter.

That was until his move to Smackdown Live following the brand split. At the time, he was involved in a jobber tag-team with Tyler Breeze who called themselves Breezeango. Again, the gimmick should not have gotten over in the way that it has, but they are actually one of the most entertaining parts of the Smackdown show right now.

All this perseverance ought to be rewarded one day, and I don't think many people would complain too much if that came in the form of the WWE Championship. Whether he would be crowned champion as Fandango or as Johnny Curtis is up for debate, but as the man has shown, the loveable ballroom dancer gimmick just refuses to die.
