230. Crush/Brian Adams

Brian Adams was brought in as “Crush” to replace an ailing Ax in Demolition.  The last incarnation of Demolition just wasn’t the same, but Brian Adams would remain tied to the WWE for years after with various incarnations of the Crush gimmick and had a stable role in mid card feuds.  He was big enough to work as a monster yet not too big to work effectively with smaller wrestlers in even give and take contests.  Adams would later go to WCW where he languished until his Kronik pairing with Bryan Clarke.  That tandem had a failed final run in WWE and Adams wasn’t seen after.  He has since passed away, but he had a very solid career in pro wrestling.  It may not be Hall of Fame material though.
