10. Bobby Roode
Competing first as Rudy Rude and then as Bobby Rood, the now ‘Glorious’ Bobby Roode wrestled as an enhancement talent for WWE for three years before his first appearance for TNA Wrestling.
Years before competing as part of Beer Money in IMPACT and as the NXT Champion, Roode competed on a combination of Jakked, Velocity, and Heat from 2001-2004, never once winning a match. Roode lost to a variety of stars including Dean Malenko and Perry Saturn, Albert, and Billy Kidman.
Roode even competed in a WWE World Tag Team Championship match in a losing effort alongside future Cruiserweight Classic competitor Tyson Dux. The team challenged Rene Dupree and Sylvain Grenier at the Sunday Night Heat taping on July 7th, 2003, a show that oddly enough featured Triple H defending the World Heavyweight Championship against Maven.
