18 WWE Attitude Era Midcarders That Deserve Hall Of Fame

17. The British Bulldog

To suggest that "British Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith deserves an induction into the Hall of Fame based on his work during the Attitude Era would be ridiculous. He was clearly past his prime but a series of match with The Rock, Mankind and Triple H helped him find moderate success during the hottest period professional wrestling had ever seen.

While he was a solid midcard addition to the WWE roster based on name recognition alone, Smith's Hall of Fame credentials lie in his many accomplishments in the world of sports entertainment. One of its biggest stars over the span of 15 years, he collected eight championships in total while serving as one of the cornerstones of the company during the mid-1990s. An elite performer when focused and motivated, Bulldog was a powerhouse whose agility and speed was unmatched.

From the representation of his homeland of Great Britain, to his five-star classic against brother-in-law Bret "Hitman" Hart at SummerSlam 1992, he was a key player in some of the most memorable moments of his time. Given one last chance to achieve success as a singles competitor, Smith's body was in rough shape when he arrived in WWE for his final run in 1999.

Despite his lack of health, he worked hard against the top guys the industry had to offer and that is all anyone could have asked for the longtime fan-favorite.
