4. Mr. Anderson

Once, Ken Anderson was considered a charismatic up-and-comer in WWE. After a few years in the company, though, he was exposed as an injury-prone one-trick pony. He was finally fired from the company after numerous complaints about his ring work, and naturally, he ended up in TNA before long.

The unfiltered, heavily-pushed version of Anderson turned out to be twice as annoying as he was before. Proudly calling himself an "assh*le" at every opportunity, Anderson bounced back and forth between being a babyface and a heel, finally finding himself in a feud with former partner Jeff Hardy.

Anderson beat Hardy for the TNA Championship at Genesis 2011, becoming the latest in a long line of WWE castoffs to do so. His brief reign came to an end at Hardy's hands, with "The Assh*le" having accomplished very little as champ.

Later that year, Anderson got another short reign with the championship. Then a heel, Anderson cheated to beat Sting for the title at Slammiversary. One month later, he lost the belt back to Sting, and once again, nobody gained anything from the bargain.
