When you think of great Light Heavyweight wrestlers from England, the Dynamite Kid is usually the first one thought of.  Prior to the former member of the British Bulldogs, the best Light Heavyweight wrestler from the United Kingdom was Mark “Rollerball” Rocco, who was not only talented but was a decent draw in his native country.  His best work (as was the case for many in his weight class) was in Japan as the masked “Black Tiger” where his matches with the legendary Tiger Mask are still considered classics today.  With a brief stint the WWF competing for the Junior Heavyweight title, he is not completely anonymous to the folks in Stamford, but we doubt that the talented Brit is on their radar for the Hall.

Like many “evil” Japanese wrestlers of the 1970’s, Tor Kamata was not actually from Japan, but was from Hawaii.

Considering how many Tag Team titles that Stevie Ray won, it is initially inconceivable that he seems to have little shot for the Hall of Fame, but despite being the larger of the two brothers (with Booker T) in Harlem Heat, he was not half the wrestler that Booker was.

It may be hard to believe now, but there was a time in the mid 90’s where Ahmed Johnson was the most over babyface in the WWF with the exception of Shawn Michaels.  Johnson was big and powerful and with his quiet yet fierce demeanor, fans bought into his street guy made good image.  Numerous injuries combined with an ill-advised heel turn, than subsequent face turn caused fans to lose interest in the muscular African-American.  By the end of his run, Johnson was accused of being sloppy in the ring and causing legitimate injuries to the other workers.  Had Ahmed Johnson not been injury prone, it is possible that he would have gone down as one of the most popular black wrestlers of all time.
