3. Floyd "Money" Mayweather
Just like Lawrence Taylor, Floyd Mayweather was another hugely successful pro-athlete who stepped onto the WrestleMania stage to main event against a wrestling giant. This time it was The Big Show. In the build up to The Show of Shows, Mayweather played his part to perfection as the cowardly, narcissistic Hollywood heel. From hitting the Big Show with cheapshots and breaking his nose, to cutting ridiculous promos about his huge wealth, Mayweather got under the skin of the fans so badly that they couldn't wait to hand over their money to watch the Big Show squash him. And that's what the wrestling business is all about, right? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4vLm9S0LDA
