100 Wrestlers NOT In WWE Hall Of Fame - Ranked

99. D-Lo Brown

Not In WWE Hall Of Fame
WWE.com

Why They SHOULD Be In:

Far more than just an Attitude Era also-ran, D'Lo Brown got over at a time when competition for such spots was never fiercer. Exuding confidence as a heel, he subsequently became loveable, with his good-to-great in-ring game lost to the banter-filled programmes he often found himself trapped at the expense of something serious.

Why They AREN'T In:

His WWE career collapsed after the tragic running powerbomb-gone-wrong that rendered Darren Drozdov a quadriplegic. It wounded his self-belief as a worker and tarnished any future potential as a topliner. WWE may not wish to revisit this sad event as a reminder of one of the workload's worst-case scenarios.
