There's no shame in taking one of the best beatings of all time, and realistically that's what Dan Matha will be remembered for by wrestling fans decades from now.

Matha wrestled a whopping 182 matches during his six years within the WWE system, and perhaps the quantity versus quality ratio has put paid to any chance of getting a free pass from the Cagematch denizens. The brutal reality about Matha's legacy is how green he still was during the aforementioned moment of magic.

Teased as a throwback musclebound monster on a show that didn't really have guys like him around anymore, the October 5th 2016 NXT was set to be the start of the Matha era. Instead, it was revealed as a device to get Samoa Joe even more over as a killer on the warpath. He was left for dead by 'The Samoan Submission Machine' and never improved to such an extent that he earned a permanent place on television before his 2020 release.
