World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) in its rich 70-year history has produced some of the legends of the game, who have raked up one championship after another in the events, there are some of the most unlucky legends, who remained bereft of the title after being part of the event, fighting in several games.
These stars became famous, earned their names, livelihoods through the company but couldn't hold the gold in their hands, which every wrestler wishes for before joining the company. Here are some of these legends:
