7. Adam Rose
The party may soon be over for Adam Rose. It's hard to think of something that was so cool in NXT and yet so lame on the main roster as what we saw from The Exotic Express. While he was struggling out of the gate to receive the same reception he found in the minors, having him hang out with Kathie Lee and Hoda was a death sentence to the act. Even The Rock would take years to recover from that one. Rose then began teaming and feuding with a guy in a bunny costume. The Rosebuds soon disappeared which was half his act in the first place, and he became a Party Pooper. Oh yeah, The Bunny also returned for one episode of Main Event as an evil bunny, and then that was dropped too. Now Rose has his own talk segment with The Rose Bush, which looks like one of those things WWE has fun with for a bit, and then forgets about in a couple weeks. At 36, Rose could be repackaged as Leo Kruger, but it would probably be just as easy for Vince to let him go and call someone else up. Not trying to be a party pooper, just trying to be realistic.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at."
Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week.
