167. Johnny DeFazio
Johnny DeFazio did not have a won/loss record that would make you take notice, but he was a four time WWF Junior Heavyweight title and a man who worked solidly for the WWWF in the Pittsburgh territory for years. It may not make him an automatic entry for the WWE Hall of Fame, but he does hold a series of footnotes worth remembering in WWE folklore.
