8. Abraham Washington

The ill-fated ECW-brand talk show host initially took the name in Florida Championship Wrestling, albeit with a middle name. Similar to the Osama example, Washington worked as Abraham Saddam Washington, which sandwiched the name of the infamous Iraqi President between the names of the United States' two most famous Presidents. You know, instant heel heat! Because I guess you're supposed to boo him for a middle name that presumably his parents chose for him.

Even then, Abraham Washington itself is a pretty lame name, completely lacking imagination. If you're going to go the "Presidential" route, pick two more obscure choices for a hybrid label. What about Millard Van Buren? Yeah, it's still pretty bad, but it shows more effort than what creative services had put into their badness.
