#4 Neville was supposed to suffer a string of humiliating losses in WWE
In 2017, Neville took WWE by storm. Within a few months of his debut on 205 Live, he trashed countless stars. He cemented his position as the "King of Cruiserweights" on the show. But Enzo Amore arrived and challenged Neville for his throne.
No one thought that Amore would last longer than a minute in the ring with "The Man Gravity Forgot." But he surprisingly defeated Neville to win the WWE Cruiserweight Championship.
This shocking loss was meant to serve as the first of multiple defeats, as Amore was meant to become the brand's new star. The plans backstage called for Amore to rise high up the card and, at the same time, for Neville to drop down through a series of humiliating losses.
Neville interpreted these potential losses against Amore as WWE's intention to bury him. As a result, he asked for his release from the company. But his contract was frozen, so he remained under contract for ten months before he was finally let go.
