#4 Taka Michinoku
Just like Santino, Taka Michinoku is yet another character that the fans did not see with the seriousness that he deserved. He did have a run in WWE towards late 90s but before he landed in Vince McMahon’s promotion, Michinoku had a stay in MMA. 1997 was the exact year in which he competed in the sport and didn’t have fond memories of it.
Michinoku lost his only fight to Keiichiro Yamamiya in the first round via submission in an event that was held in Tokyo. This proved to be the end of the short MMA career of Michinoku, after which he went to the WWE.
