Whereas three Kliq members are already in WWE's Hall Of Fame, and another is currently the #2 man in the company, Sean 'X-Pac' Waltman is often the forgotten man despite his considerable contributions to the industry.

He began his career with one of the first "Oh Sh**!" moments of the brand new Monday Night RAW when 1-2-3 Kid - presented as a jobber - shockingly pinned Razor Ramon following a moonsault. He would go on to win the WWF Tag Team Championship a couple of times before jumping to WCW as the newest member of the incredibly hot nWo.

Upon being released by Eric Bischoff whist home recovering from a neck injury, Waltman was one of the first man to jump back to the World Wrestling Federation, appearing the night after WrestleMania XIV and helping form the new-look D-Generation X.

A perennial mid-carder, Waltman took his undersized frame and made it in the land of the giants that was the WWF. His association with the Kliq notwithstanding, Waltman's accomplishments to pro-wrestling history make him a very underrated superstar.
