#6 Pac (Neville) walked out of WWE after some unfavorable bookings

PAC (known in WWE as Neville) shot to fame in NXT thanks to his incredible speed and skills. He won the NXT Championship before moving to the main roster and becoming one of the better superstars there.

However, his stock plummeted quickly even though fans continued to cheer him on. WWE could have made him a top contender for a world championship, but he remained part of the cruiserweight division for a long time.

After winning the Cruiserweight Championship twice, Neville decided to walk out of the company. He later explained the reason behind his departure, claiming that he did not enjoy the company’s bookings.

“No they gave me the opportunity shine and shine I did. The lads over there are great but they ran of ideas for me so I Ieft. I disagreed with my booking... “I was worth more than being jobbed out to jobbers, that’s why I left," Neville said.

PAC joined All Elite Wrestling (AEW) after his WWE departure. He has been a top draw on the promotion and has had some high-level rivalries. After competing solo for some time, PAC formed the Death Triangle along with Fénix and Pentagón Jr. on AEW.

Apart from AEW, PAC has also gone back to Dragon Gate and won the Open the Dream Gate Championship. It is only a matter of time before PAC goes on to win the AEW World Championship to make his post-WWE life even sweeter.
