10 WWE Managers Who Totally Outshone Their Wrestlers
8. Daffney (David Flair & Crowbar)
Daffney saw little singles success in WCW aside from a short run with the World Cruiserweight Championship. She held the title for less than a month, and for part of the run she was co-champion with her charge Crowbar.
But Daffney was a total scene-stealer - both backstage and in front of the live crowd. With her twisted grin, manic energy, and voice that quickly switched to screaming or supervillain laughter, it was hard to ignore her despite anything else that was going on.
Many modern viewers will draw a comparison to Harley Quinn, and the villain does seem to be source material. However, this character was still fresh with Harley only debuting in 1992. Daffney did her job as a manager and led her team to tag title glory.
In terms of championship runs, David Flair held the highest-ranking belt, the United States Heavyweight Championship, however, this was awarded to him by his father. Flair’s run with the belt was brief but is considered one of the title’s worst, with the spotlight quickly exposing Flair's inadequacies.
Crowbar, aside from his Cruiserweight co-championship, held the WCW Hardcore Championship for 39 days. The belt was derided at the time, and its reputation has worsened in hindsight.
