8. Max Moon
Vince McMahon reportedly spent $13,000 on Max Moon's suit. That's a big investment for a gimmick that didn't really take off and is remembered more for a 'who played him' debate (Konnan and Paul Diamond both performed under the name) than any classic matches or storylines. Max Moon was a spaceman who shot fireworks out of his fists. When Konnan was doing the gimmick, it didn't really work so well because, coming from Mexico, Konnan didn't know how to wrestle an American style properly. He struggled to adapt and was let go, replaced by Paul Diamond. The gimmick was a bust, but that's not to say that something similar couldn't work in 2015. The idea of someone who may or may not be an alien from space is an intriguing one and WWE could have some fun with it. Besides, an updated Max Moon-esque costume is something that a lot of fans would want to see.
