Things may have seemed bleak for these beloved or soon to be treasured names at the time,

0:05.1

but not even silly purple lighting and thrones could keep these gifted individuals

0:09.5

from earning or keeping a special place in your heart.

0:12.7

So I am Garitha from What Culture Wrestling and these are 10 beloved wrestlers with one awful

0:18.1

gimmick. Number 10 Seth Rollins Monday Night Messiah

0:21.6

It finally feels like Seth Rollins has forged the sort of undeniable organic connection with

stick acquits with increasingly self-indulgent sing-along interludes, likely or stemmed from
