20. X-Pac

May 2002 was a strange time for X-Pac.

Back then, he had returned from an injury lay-off to rejoin the nWo in the aftermath of WrestleMania X8 and directed so much of his verbal vitriol in the direction of Hulk Hogan. Using the pair's WCW history, it seemed like X-Pac vs. Hogan was very much 'a thing'. Until the Hulkster was drafted to SmackDown, that is.

By this particular episode of Raw, the nWo had their attention on Kane and were about to start feuding with Booker T and Goldust. For X-Pac, another injury lay-off was around the corner before the nWo was disbanded and he was handed his WWE release in July.

Now retired from the squared circle, Sean Waltman hosts the brilliant Pro Wrestling 4 Life podcast, has worked as a guest trainer at the WWE Performance Center, and is one of those extremely rare names who can call themselves a two-time WWE Hall of Famer.
