10 Breakout Wrestling Performances That Went Nowhere

10. Fandango (WrestleMania 29)

Catching just about every single soul inside of MetLife Stadium off-guard on the night, and Chris Jericho himself upon being told the plan heading into the Show of Shows, Fandango toppling Y2J at WrestleMania 29 in what was his debut match on the main roster seemingly created a legitimately over persona overnight.

Yet, before long, it soon became clear that folks were perhaps a little more engaged with the idea of throwing their hands in the air and dancing along to the ballroom dancer's theme tune than Johnny Curtis himself.

Despite playing his part in catapulting the theme song to #11 in the UK iTunes charts at one point, and clearly inspiring the sort of party atmosphere usually reserved for the faces of this barmy wrestling world, 'Dango continued fighting the bad fight and soon wound up being dispatched by Le Champion a few weeks later at Extreme Rules.

Then, in a cruel twist of fate, instead of strapping up the hip-shaking villain with the IC title soon after, a concussion resulted in Fandango being pulled from TV.

Vince McMahon's one-time pet project never really found a way to rediscover his musical mojo in the years that followed.
