#6 Vader - 2005
This one is cheating just a little bit because the late Big Van Vader never actually signed a contract to return to WWE in 2005, but he was supposed to.
While Jonathan Coachman was feuding with Stone Cold Steve Austin in 2005, a match was announced between the two for Taboo Tuesday. Coach decided to bring out some backup on the October 31 edition of RAW to be in his corner at the pay-per-view, in the form of Vader and Goldust. During their segment of beating up Funaki and a confrontation with Coach's new replacement opponent, Batista, Vader would botch several moves and even trip over as he exited the ring.
Come Taboo Tuesday itself the following night, Vader would make a few more botches during his interference during the street fight between Coach and Batista. If Vader and Goldust had impressed Vince McMahon on these two nights, then they may have been offered contracts to return to the promotion.
Goldust would eventually be offered a contract and make his return two months later in the Royal Rumble, but they would be unhappy with Vader's performance and he wouldn't be offered anything.
