#3. Former WWE Superstar Marty Jannetty and Shawn Michaels

Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty teamed together for more than seven years in various promotions, including WWE. From 1985-1992, The Rockers were on fire before Michaels kicked his friend through a barbershop window.

This superkick propelled Michaels into his Hall of Fame career, whilst Jannetty was later released and has had a much more understated career.

During the height of the team's fame, the two men were inseparable, but it appears that that is no longer the case.

In an interview with Chicago Mania back in 2019, Michaels made it clear that he doesn't even have a contact number for his former friend anymore.

"I no longer have a contact number for him. There are times when I see him, he is great, he seems great. Other times it's less so. It's heartbreaking to me, just as it is to everyone else. I don't know what any of us can do in that aspect."

Jannetty was part of a WWE storyline with Michaels back in 2006, but he wasn't retained by the company and has had a lot of personal struggles in recent years.
