Clay Morrow finally met his end near the end of the sixth season. For many fans, it was long overdue, despite the fact Ron Perlman had been an intrinsic part of the show's DNA since it all began. After having managed to squeeze out of every situation where it seemed that certain death was in the cards for him, Clay wound up framed for the murder of Damon Pope at the end of season five and shipped off to prison. Clay continued to worm his way out of meeting his fate in the prison's general population by agreeing to a deal with Lee Toric, allowing him to buy more time. When Jax and Galen O'Shay explosively parted ways, Galen and the IRA reached out to Clay to have him build his own crew in Belfast, Ireland that could continue the gun running operation in Northern California. Needing their help to break him out during a prison transport, Galen used the SAMCRO boys, who successfully retrieved Clay and brought him to the Irish's private hanger. Seemingly home free yet again, Clay's hopes were quickly dashed when Jax killed Galen -- in another death that easily could've made this list -- before informing Clay that the club had voted unanimously to kill him and make it seem as though he and the Irish all slaughtered one another in a shootout. After causing countless problems, irreparable damage and leaving numerous bodies in his wake, Clay finally met Mr. Mayhem and a weight had finally been lifted off Jax and the audience.
