2: Abyss and Hulk Hogan’s Hall of Fame ring
Trending
During the mid-2000’s, Abyss was one of the top ‘monsters’ in pro wrestling. He’d been booked to perfection, and he’d even peaked WWE’s interest. WWE wanted to sign Abyss and immediately push him into a program with The Undertaker. Sadly for Abyss, he refused the offer – a decision he’ll probably regret for the rest of his life.
Abyss got pushed into some of the worst angles in pro wrestling history in the following years including the Judas Mesias debacle. However, the worst it got for Abyss was probably his storyline with Hulk Hogan – a storyline that completely neutered the big man.

The storyline was started soon after Hogan signed with the company. By this time, Abyss was being portrayed as a bumbling oaf of a babyface. Hogan gave him his precious Hall of Fame ring, telling Abyss that it had magical powers. After wearing the ring, Abyss was miraculously able to dominate his foes.
As you can guess, both fans and critics brutalised this ridiculous storyline.
