6. Jonathan Coachman
Whether he was an annoying heel commentator, a victim of repeated mockery or in a position of 'power' as an assistant to the likes of the McMahon family or Eric Bischoff, nobody ever took Jonathan Coachman seriously. Before he ended up leaving for ESPN, 'Coach' was more of a figure of fun than a figure of authority on WWE programming. He was bullied by the likes of The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin, but he took his job seriously nonetheless. Coach was always the first man to jump forward and try to get his commands across, even if nobody was prepared to listen to him. His character was epitomised when set across from DX, in their second run across the mid 2000's. Shawn Michaels and Triple H were all set to defy any orders set their way - even while it was in a far more 'PG' manner from their first run - and Coachman often found himself as the butt of the jokes. Despite his best efforts, Coach was nothing more than a stand in. Like a substitute teacher in school. He was treated like one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6NWg4uxDEQ
