Professional Wrestling is like a lot of things in life. To succeed, there's many factors. Not only do you need the skill but sometimes good luck and good timing can make a difference. The WWE has shown that over the decades. There's many reasons guys like Hulk Hogan, Steve Austin, The Rock, and John Cena worked and one of which was right place at the right time as they were largely perfect for the era they were in. Another reason is they had that larger than life presence as well. Basically, the planets were aligned right. Unfortunately, there were wrestlers that weren't meant to work in the WWF/WWE whether it be bad timing or lacking what was needed. In this article, we'll take a look at wrestlers that for one reason or another were doomed in the WWF/WWE. I want to point out, I'm mostly going to point out weaknesses or bad timing rather than wrestlers who didn't work due to a bad gimmick.
