#4 Former WWE Tag Team Champion Scotty 2 Hotty
Scott Taylor rose to WWE fame when he started teaming with Brian Christopher. Dubbed "Too Much," the team did not achieve much success until Taylor was renamed Scotty 2 Hotty and Christopher found a new name of Grandmaster Sexay.
Scott Taylor is a perfectly acceptable ring name, but WWE decided to go to a flamboyantly silly route for the duo. Scotty 2 Hotty made it work and gained prominence. He used a ridiculously unrealistic finisher named The Worm to enhance his gimmick to great success.
He worked as a trainer at the WWE Performance Center but recently requested his release, leading to emotional responses from former and present NXT stars.
#3 Former WWE Tag Team Champion Michael McGillicutty
Once upon a time, WWE had the son of Mr. Perfect and the grandson of Larry Hennig on their roster. Of course, the most appropriate name for the youngster would be Michael McGillicutty.
Joe Hennig was no Mr. Perfect, but he was a decent in-ring worker whose credibility was destroyed by the bizarre ring name.
WWE later attempted to right the wrong by renaming him Curtis Axel and providing him with a major push that ended as quickly as it began. After years of languishing on the bottom of the barrel, Axel was released from the company in 2020.
