15 Wrestlers That Got BANNED From WWE

15. Nailz

Sometimes, it's fun to slap a deep filter on your voice, stare straight in the bathroom mirror, pretend you've got a mouth full of porridge and yell: "BOOOOOOOOSS MAAAAAAAAN". What? Nobody else does Nailz circa 1992 impressions when they're home alone? Delete this part of the article and let's move along, then.

Seriously though, the Nailz gimmick was terrifying if you were a kid in the early-90s. A deranged, murderous psychopath who'd escaped prison solely to hunt down Big Boss Man for being mean to him in jail? Yeah, scary stuff. Nobody was quite as scared as Vince McMahon when the real-life Kevin Wacholz got mad about his payoffs though. 

Bret Hart wrote in his autobiography that he heard Nailz choking and rag-dolling McMahon around his office before he exited the promotion for good. Vince was obviously shaken up, but things would only get worse. Later, Wacholz filed a wrongful termination lawsuit against his old boss, and he even alleged that McMahon had sexually assaulted him. 

Nailz also testified against Vince and the WWF during the steroid trials, so his name was mud in McMahon circles from that point on. There wasn't a hope in hell that Kev, his murderous inmate character or any other offshoot he might want to play would be welcome in the federation ever again.

Triple H has never had to worry about weighing up a WWE Hall Of Fame induction. Nailz was only around in the WWF for a cup of coffee, then his vicious attack on Vince ensured he'd never be back.

What a story.
