9. Shaniqua

Not too many workers go out after having a giant arse shoved right in their face, but Shaniqua is one of them. Ex-Tough Enough star Linda Miles was unceremoniously dumped after Rikishi sat on her during the finish of a three-on-top handicap bout at No Way Out 2004.

Shaniqua was teaming with The Basham Brothers against Rikishi and Scotty 2 Hotty that night, and she took the pin. How could Linda gag Doug or Danny and whip them like some dominatrix queen after that pay-per-view humiliation? How?!

She didn't need to worry about it, because the future wasn't bright.

WWE let Shaniqua go from her contract almost as soon as No Way Out was over. She didn't work another match, and that was very much that for the S&M gimmick creative had erm...whipped up for her and The Basham boys.

Miles' unconscious face was a parting shot for the Shaniqua character on WWE TV.
