1. Seth Rollins

No other WSX alum comes close to what Seth Rollins has accomplished in his career since his short time on MTV.

Wrestling as Tyler Black, Rollins was one-half of D.I.F.H. -- Do It For Her -- with Jimmy Jacobs, and toiled away in the tag team ranks of WSX, failing to stand out in any major way.

But afterward? The sky was the limit. He debuted in ROH as part of The Age of the Fall with Jacobs, and built an impressive indie resume for himself before making the jump to Vince McMahon's sports entertainment carnival and amassing a slew of titles and accolades.

Inaugural NXT champion. Member of The Shield. Tag Team champion. Money in the Bank Winner. 2-time WWE Heavyweight champion. Not to mention the fact that he'll make every Wrestlemania highlight reel for decades to come with that main event cash-in.

Looking back on his WSX, literally no one would have predicted this.
