10 Wrestling Characters That Had The Plug Pulled On Them Immediately

6. Key

One of the keys to a successful wrestling career is not being given a stupid name...like “Key”, for example. However, that wasn’t the only thing holding Vic Grimes back from success in the WWF, as he was also the victim of bad timing and a ridiculous character.

In the summer of 1999, Droz and Prince Albert had a pretty lame tag team. To make things even lamer, Key joined them to make it a stable. He was a big dude who dressed all in white, and was supposed to be a drug dealer. They went to war with The Godfather, to represent the apparent never-ending battle between pimps and drug dealers. Perhaps this feud was deeply personal and fascinating to an incredibly small segment of the population, but the rest of us thought it was really damn stupid.

Key's entire run in WWE in the ring consisted of one match on Shotgun Saturday Night, winning a six-man tag bout with his no good friends against three jobbers. Godfather was then injured, and instead of waiting until he recovered WWE, just let Key go.

We can only imagine how a pimp vs. drug dealers feud would have gone. Odds are it would have been terrible.
