10 Wrestlers Who Only Worked ONE WWE Match

10. Lou Thesz (1987)

Behold a well past-his-prime Lou Thesz embracing fellow stalwart pro Pat O'Connor in front of WWF fans on a house show in 1987. No, Vince McMahon didn't expect Lou and Pat to wrestle a singles bout on the same show as matches like Randy Savage vs. Harley Race or Ted DiBiase vs. Ricky Steamboat, don't worry.

The pair entered a legends Battle Royal on the night instead.

Thesz beat the likes of O'Connor, Killer Kowalski, Chief Jay Strongbow, The Crusher and more. Someone else will also be included on this list shortly - he was another man best-known for his work elsewhere, not the "sports entertainment" giant McMahon had popularised.

Three-time NWA World Champ Thesz was posthumously inducted into WWE's Hall Of Fame in 2016. He was outspoken about the company's take on pro wrestling, which is probably why he only popped up as a one-off in '87. Hulkamania was already running wild by then, brother.
