10 Best Monster Henchman In Wrestling

5. Umaga

The 'Samoan Bulldozer' was one of wrestling's most unique monsters, with a career that was tragically cut short. His undefeated streak across 2006 set Umaga up as one of John Cena's most formidable early career opponents going into 2007. Unfortunately, the 'Super Cena' project meant that the former Jamal was sacrificed for the cause, and his potential as a main event monster was somewhat squandered.

However, Umaga was still an intimidating force, which landed him the role of Vince McMahon's representative in the "Battle of the Billionaires" against Donald Trump's choice of Bobby Lashley. Despite losing the match - and Vince's hair in the process - the Samoan would help McMahon capture the ECW Championship from Lashley in a surreal moment.

After his association with McMahon came to an end, Umaga became a fairly normalized figure on the roster. He had various feuds with Santino Marella, Jeff Hardy, and Batista, but the company could not recapture what made him a special monster figure.
