1. The Ascension's NXT Dominance

What's this? The Ascension in the number one spot? Surely not.

It's true, and they're here because Konnor and Viktor had one hell of a run as NXT Tag-Team Champions. For 364 days, The Ascension ruled the brand and looked destined to become main roster success stories. So much for that, but they can still reflect on a golden period.

Today, The Ascension are cannon fodder in the WWE tag division. Until The Lucha Dragons shockingly ended their dominance at Full Sail, they reigned supreme one of the best duos in the entire company and were taken seriously by fans and industry critics alike.

Contrast that almost year-long stint as champions with what Konnor and Viktor are doing today on Raw. They're mixing it up with comedy tag-teams, and that's hot on the heels of their strange friendship with Breezango on SmackDown's "Fashion Files".

Which other poor or overlooked WWE performers have had sporadic periods of awesomeness? Let us know down in the comments section below!
