277. Sho Funaki

With a decade plus tenure in the WWE and a won/loss record that resembles NBA expansion franchises, Sho Funaki was a great entertainer and a decent worker. Funaki is one of those wrestlers whose winning percentage does not reflect what he did in the ring. Initially a member of Kaientai in Japan, and then in the United States, Funaki was a singles wrestler for years and actually won the Cruiserweight Title with the WWE. He is probably not a Hall of Fame wrestler, but his overall body of work in the WWE is more than most people remember.

Should Sho Funaki be in the Hall of Fame?

Definitely put him in! - 63.6%

Maybe, but others deserve it first. - 10.9%

Probably not, but it wouldn't be the end of the world. - 16.4%

No opinion. - 0%

No way! - 9.1%
