John Layfield didn't have the most decorated football career, but he does have the silliest college photo, and any chance to humiliate him should be taken. A star of Abilene Christian University, 'Justin Hawk' failed in his NFL bid, and wound up pottering about in the World League of American Football - essentially the NFL's creche. In 1992, he thought, "nobs to this", and took up wrestling instead.
