Vince McMahon once decided that Christian was so repulsive to look at that every time he appeared on screen, a blue dot should hide his face.

Like Christian's career trajectory if this utterly madcap idea made it on to television, there's almost nowhere left to go with this entry. WWE had already spent years desperately pushing a 'Creepy Little B*stard' nickname coined on-screen by Stone Cold Steve Austin as the strongest endorsement of 'Captain Charisma's supposed hideousness, but McMahon wanted to go one further to express just how ugly he thought the Canadian star was.

No matter how great his matches were, his boss was consumed with what he perceived as faulty physiognomy. Even upon hypothetical reflection, the idea leaves the perception of one of the company's finest all rounders in tatters. Needlessly cruel, it could have devastated his future earnings from a fanbase with notoriously long memories.
