#4. WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle
Kurt Angle is the only Olympic gold medalist to ever wrestle for WWE. Angle, a well-known amateur wrestler, was appalled by the extremity of ECW, but couldn't reject a later deal presented by WWE.
Angle turned out to be natural, with much success in both serious and comic portrayals. As part of countless iconic in-ring moments and a holder of multiple championships in WWE and beyond, Kurt Angle is a true legend of the industry.
#3. Olympic Bronze medalist Bad News Brown
One of the toughest men to ever enter WWE, Bad News Brown didn't remain in the company for a long time but managed to create a spot for himself. A unique character: he was a loner who never smiled.
Bad News Brown was also a respected judoka who represented his nation in several international competitions. In the 1976 Montreal Olympics, he won the Bronze medal.
Brown would leave WWE without winning a championship, frustrated by WWE turning their back on their promise of turning him into their first African-American world champion.
