10 WWE Stars Lost To The Sands Of Time

2. Eric Escobar

In professional wrestling history, it's not only the featured main event talent that people remember. For example, even some lower card stars are memorable. The real challenge for wrestlers outside of the top line mix is keeping themselves in the public eye despite never being genuine headliners in WWE. One name that certainly isn't recalled easily is Eric Escobar. In fairness to the man, he wasn't exactly given a lot of time to show what he could do on the main roster. Excelling in development, WWE made the decision to have Escobar installed as Vickie Guerrero's latest love interest in late-2009. From the off, Escobar as an arrogant heel who was using Guerrero's power to get what he wanted. It didn't last long, Eric was turned face and split from Vickie just a few months after his debut. After that fact, Escobar struggled to gain traction as a good guy. That shouldn't have come as a surprise, because he had turned from heel to babyface so quickly. Fans were never given any reason to care about the man, good or bad, and he was released in January, 2010. Lasting a grand total of 3 months on the main roster, Eric Escobar has been lost in the shuffle when fans think back to old wrestlers in WWE.
