10 WWE Superstars That Are Permanently Lost

6. Commander Azeez

Commander Azeez has found himself on the end of about six different sh*tty sticks of late.

A one-note gimmick alongside Apollo Crews was left for dead when Crews himself left the main roster for the neon climbs of NXT. In the meantime, Azeez' other main redeeming feature was undermined by the arrival of the bigger Omos and any mention of him being hard as f*ck in Shane McMahon's Raw Underground disappeared with the concept itself.

A latter-day NXT black and gold also-ran, it's tough to see how things turn out well for him unless WWE decides there's more to be done or he campaigns to become the 24/7 Division's squash merchant. Second fiddle to a former Intercontinental Champion has worked out well for giants in the past, but the company's about as far away from the place that made stars out of Diesel and Mark Henry to do the same for the former Babatunde/Dabba-Kato.
