10 WWE Characters Only Created For ONE Feud

By 1992, fans viewed the Big Boss Man as a holier-than-thou babyface who had done sterling work to keep criminals in line at Cobb County's most dangerous prisons. Nailz disagreed; he screamed that the Boss Man had derived some sick pleasure from kicking the living sh*te out of him in jail, and now he wanted revenge.

His claims about being an innocent man who was wrongly imprisoned and abused didn't exactly paint Boss Man as a good guy, but the announcers said he was lying and couldn't be trusted. Who knows how they came to such a wild conclusion when the guy seemed so level-headed and friendly in introductory promos.

Once he'd feuded with Boss Man, Nailz moved on to a mini-feud with The Undertaker that didn't really get going. He was fired before the end of the year following an alleged attack on Vince McMahon backstage, and never returned to the promotion.

McMahon clearly had plans for Nailz beyond Boss Man. Nobody will ever know for sure what they were.
