At one point it was unthinkable to imagine that Eddie Guerrero's widow would have a longer tenure in the company than he did, or that she would become one of the company's most hated heels. Still, the easy-to-despise manager soon became an assistant to GM Teddy Long, and within months, had won the role of SmackDown's boss.

As far as corrupt General Managers go, Vickie took the cake. Everything that she did was designed to benefit her boyfriend (later husband) Edge, and the other members of her La Familia stable - Chavo Guerrero, Zack Ryder, Curt Hawkins, and Bam Neely. The Undertaker, in particular, was a victim of Vickie's constant power abuses. His Hell's Gate submission hold was banned, and when he did use it, she stripped him of the World Heavyweight Championship.

Eventually, after a split and reconciliation with Edge, Vickie left SmackDown to take the reins of Raw. That wasn't it for her on SmackDown, though - in 2013, she was appointed the GM once again, racking up a year-long tenure that would make her the last person to hold the position until the role is revived next month.
