10 Unbelievable Omissions From The WWE Hall Of Fame

10. Sean Waltman

Starting out at as an enhancement talent on Raw in '93, Sean Waltman rose to prominence with a shock pinfall win over Razor Ramon. The victory catapulted the newcomer to superstardom, and the 1-2-3 Kid became a staple of the WWF's mid-card until May 1996.

With two Tag Team Title runs and a spectacular WWF Championship bout with Bret Hart on his CV, Waltman left the WWF to resurface in WCW in September '96 as the über-cool Syxx of the nWo. Waltman went on to capture the Cruiserweight Title and the Tag Titles before returning to WWF after WrestleMania XIV.

Immediately joining the revamped DX, Waltman was rechristened X-Pac and went on to hold a string of titles - even challenging The Rock for the WWF Championship at Capital Carnage. X-Pac also holds the distinction of being the last ever WWF Light Heavyweight Champion and holding the Light Heavyweight and Cruiserweight Titles simultaneously in 2001.

Waltman would cap off his WWE career by rejoining his nWo brethren after WrestleMania X8. His final WWE bout came in the very last nWo match in WWE, the infamous ten-man tag in which Kevin Nash tore his quad.

With a decade in the top flight, Sean Waltman is a criminally underrated performer who contributed on both sides of the Monday Night Wars - and deserves a HOF ring for his troubles.
