9 Best Martial Artists Turned Wrestlers

9. Eric Bischoff

Eric Bischoff had to be included in this list just so Eric Bischoff could be made fun of in this list. In the few times that the one-time boss of WCW stepped into the ring as a "wrestler," he flaunted his amateur background in Tae Kwon Do, wearing a black karate gi and waving his hands around in the dorkiest of all pseudo-fighting stances. Bischoff's amateurism really can't be overstated. And yet, he fully believed that he was legitimately capable of kicking ass in the locker room (though reports about his overconfidence in his fighting abilities may have been exaggerated by talent who despised his business ethics). Despite trying to awkwardly work in his knowledge of karate at every conceivable moment as an announcer, it becomes painfully clear watching Bischoff perform alongside even the most substandard of performers that his fighting skills are lukewarm at best.
