9. Jack Swagger

It’s easy to forget just how good Jack Swagger can be. Though never the most charismatic WWE superstar, Swagger combines considerable amateur wrestling pedigree with technique and an under-rated power game inside the ring. The “Real American” knows how to wrestle, pure and simple.

He’s been a United States, ECW, and World Heavyweight Champion throughout his WWE career, but Swagger currently finds himself at an all-time low. Only called upon to fill space on Main Event and Superstars or provide a quick victory for the likes of Rusev on Raw, Swagger has become an afterthought.

Poor microphone skills will always be the major complaint against Jack Swagger, but his work with Zeb Colter proved that when his weaknesses are nullified, Swagger can be relevant. Colter’s recent release sadly kills any hope of a reunion, and possibly Swagger’s long-term WWE career prospects.
