#4 Former WWE Superstar Shad Gaspard

Shad Gaspard never won a title during his WWE career, but Cryme Tyme had its share of fans. During their second run, the duo worked with John Cena, including in a memorable segment where Shad and JTG vandalized JBL's car.

Shad continued to work in the independent circuit while also expanding his horizons for opportunities outside the industry. In 2018, he provided motion capture for Kratos, the central character of the critically acclaimed video game "God Of War."

Before his WWE career, Shad worked as a bodyguard for celebrities, working for P. Diddy and WWE Hall of Famer Mike Tyson.


#3 Former WWE Superstar The Warlord

Alongside The Barbarian, The Warlord formed "The Powers Of Pain," a tag team that was portrayed as dangerous and dominant but didn't manage to win a tag team championship in the company.

Unlike most entries on the list, The Warlord became a bodyguard after retiring as an active professional wrestler. Nicknamed "The Wall," the man from Parts Unknown was in charge of protecting the likes of 50 Cent, Thomas Jones and Kimbo Slice.
