10 Wrestling Legends That Would Never Be Pushed In WWE 2015

7. Junkyard Dog

So, let's get this straight. This at one time very jacked black wrestler gets hired by the WWF when his weight is ballooning. As his weight continues to balloon, he's re-cast as a literal man-as-dog who wears a chain, headbutts people, bays at the moon and barks during promos. This man gets so big that he gains a backstage nickname of the "Junkfood Dog," and yet is somehow also a superstar who ends up in the WWE Hall of Fame. You can be fatter than hell (which at times, the Dog certainly was), but to paraphrase Enzo Amore...."Charisma? You can't teach that!"
