Marty Jannetty was insanely popular back in the late 80s and early 90s

Jannetty made a name for himself as a pro-wrestler back in the day. He did quite well for himself in WWE during 1988-92. Jannetty and Shawn Michaels were over with the fans during their stint as The Rockers. Following their split, Michaels was pushed to the moon while Jannetty didn't do much of note compared to his tag team partner.

Jannetty's biggest accomplishment in WWE was his only Intercontinental title reign in the 90s. He had a brief stint in WCW in the late 90s as well. Jannetty wrestled his last singles match way back in 2018, in what was a losing effort against Joey Janela.
