10 Second-Generation Wrestlers Who Never Made It
4. Angelo Mosca, Jr.
Angelo Mosca was already a legend in the Canadian Football League before ever cementing himself as a force in a wrestling ring, winning five Grey Cups in a career that would ultimately land him in the CFL Hall of Fame. After hanging up his jersey, the big, burly Mosca became a full-time pro wrestler, competing as a babyface in Canada and a heel in WWE, and winning a host of regional titles.
In the mid-1980s, Mosca's son, Angelo Jr., got into wrestling - and while he found some success during his brief career (he would capture the Mid-Atlantic Heavyweight Title three times, from the likes of Ivan Koloff and Dory Funk, Jr.), most accepted that he was the beneficiary of some extreme nepotism. The younger Mosca was considered terrible in the ring and on the microphone, and he lacked the charisma and intimidation factor that his father had.
Despite his championship runs, Mosca was retired by the late 1980s. His legacy in the sport was that some considered him to be the worst worker ever.
