10 Wrestling Legends That Would Never Be Pushed In WWE 2015
9. Dick Murdoch
At number nine on the list is "Captain Redneck" Dick Murdoch, who in the WWF in 1984 was paired with the aforementioned Adrian Adonis in the "North-South Connection" tag team that held the WWF Tag Team Championships. As evidenced from the photo above, Murdoch (as compared to Lex Luger) isn't exactly a physical specimen. However, Murdoch was a great heel, and knew how to do the job required of him in the ring insofar as drawing heat and getting both himself and his opponent over. For as much as Vince and company love jacked, tanned musclemen, they're oftentimes not as skilled as the pasty fat guys at getting the job done. Where one exists, having the other there too is just as important.
