Haven’t seen the meme come up yet. Anyone remember Mike Jackson in MidSouth that never won a match? He looked like some dude off the street and would get destroyed every match. I think he wore ole miss blue and red colors and sported a black beard

Probably not in popularity but one of the for real toughest was the Iron Sheik. 

The Camel Clutch! That was always one of our favorite moves when we had our own WWF matches. We would each pick a wrestler to emulate and have our own battle royals and I was usually the Sheik.

For some reason, I always liked Corporal Kirchner better than Sgt. Slaughter.
