#3. David Otunga

David Otunga has worked for years as a broadcaster, though his personal demons may be catching up to him.
David Otunga has worked for years as a broadcaster, but his personal demons may be catching up to him.

David Otunga looked to be a featured performer coming out of the original NXT TV series. He had a killer physique and the gift of gab. You can add onto that the real-life pedigree of graduating from Harvard Law School, and a real marriage to Jennifer Hudson. Combine all of these factors, and he was exactly the kind of star WWE would love to push. Unfortunately, his limited in-ring skills were exposed time and again during the Nexus run.

Otunga was relegated to mostly a broadcast role in recent years. Things took an ugly turn for his personal life as news broke this fall of his separation from his wife. In the aftermath, she filed for a restraining order, accusing Otunga of physical abuse.

Otunga has denied the allegations, and it’s unclear what they may mean for his standing with WWE. The company typically suspends or outright releases parties who may be mixed up with domestic violence.
