#3 Abraham Washington endorses at the wrong time

A.W's attempt to save face backfired in 2012

Abraham Washington was a ton of charisma.

After hosting his own talk-show on ECW, the founder of AW Productions would become the manager of the Prime Time Players, where everything would go down.

As Titus O'Neil wrestled Kofi Kingston during the July 30, 2012 edition of RAW, Washington made a comment about NBA star Kobe Bryant's 2003 sexual assault case, comparing the crime to O'Neil's dominance in the ring.

An instant bad move, the commentary team quickly apologized, and it looked like A.W's career was over.

With this in mind, it's possible that A.W. tried to save himself by endorsing Linda McMahon for Senate online.

This also backfired, as the negativity Washington had generated was seen as damaging to Linda's campaign.

Eleven days after his fateful moment, Washington was gone from WWE and hasn't been seen since.
