#3. 'Road Dogg' Jesse James
The Road Dogg's road to the WWE was certainly a long one. As the son of 'Bullet' Bob Armstrong, the youngster certainly had a lot to live up to, even before he stepped into the squared circle.
But after competing in his first match in 1986, the D O Double-G would enlist in the United States Marine Corps, serving a tour of duty overseas.
After leaving the Corps, Road Dogg would resume his dream of wrestling, first competing in World Championship Wrestling, then Smokey Mountain, before reaching the WWF.
As a WWF Superstar, Road Dogg had a ton of success, but was most prominent during the Attitude Era, teaming with Billy Gunn as the New Age Outlaws, with the pair later joining D-Generation X in 1998.
Nowadays, Road Dogg can be found working backstage for WWE, as one of the creative talents for SmackDown Live.
