From GoDaddy.com commercial spokesgirl to WWE Diva, Candice Michelle parlayed her looks to a WWE Women’s Championship.  Michelle was far from a great wrestler when she began, but she did work at her craft to become a passable woman’s wrestler and credible champion.

For decades, most wrestling fans got their information from the “Apter Mags”, namely the publications from Bill Apter.  While those magazines maintained “kayfabe”, they were a major part of the life of wrestling fans and the WWE does use many of the pictures that Apter himself took today.  While he never worked for the WWE, this could be a real dark horse candidate.

The Canadian flagbearer in the 1928 Olympics, Earl McCready would go on to be one of the most successful collegiate wrestlers of all time, winning the NCAA Title for the University of Oklahoma three years straight (1928-30).  McCready would become a major star in the professional ranks in Canada and the United Kingdom winning the British Empire Title three times.
