3. Royal Flush
In 2002, Ron Killings was cool. He had a chip on his shoulder from his WWE release, he was edgy, athletic, and cutting great heel promos. He was the second ever world champion in the fledgling NWA-TNA promotion, and looked to be a future star in the industry. In 2015 hes wearing a cardboard crown to the ring and carrying around a plunger. There are few things worse in all of wrestling than Truths gimmick right now, along with the fake forced laughter of Tom Phillips and Jerry Lawler at his character's obvious mental instability. His decrees arent funny, and the entire act is embarrassing. Truth may have not been richer if he stuck around in TNA all this time, but he wouldnt have to trade in some of his dignity for a plunger either.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at."
Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week.
