175. La Parka

One of the few truly over luchadors in WCW, La Parka played the guitar with a chair, had one of the best wrestling outfits ever and was a major draw in his native Mexico.  Foreced to change his name to L.A. Park, the man whose birth certificate states Adolfo Tapia would win many championships in Mexico, and probably should have at least been considered for more title shots when he was in WCW.

286. Steve Casey

A champion rower for his native Ireland, Steve Casey would go on to greater success in the wrestling ring becoming one of the first Irish champions.  An incredibly gifted athlete, Casey would win the NWA and Boston version of the AWA Championship multiple times.

325. Dick Shikat

A former recognized two time World Heavyweight Champion in wrestling, Dick Shikat would join the post World War One circuit and would become a World Heavyweight Champion himself.  Shikat should be considered a dark horse candidate in terms of the WWE Hall of Fame and its legends wing.

331. Bert Assirati

The greatest wrestler from England in the first half of the 20th century, Bert Assirati was the largest box office draw in the United Kingdom and perhaps one of the best.  Assairati was a legitimate strongman and a major domino in the history of British wrestling but his failure to even crack the American mid-card works largely against him.  Still, the legendary strength, viciousness and tolerance for pain is the one of wrestling legend.
