17. Maven – Teacher
Regardless of what happened after he became a member of the full-time roster, Maven will always be a part of wrestling history as a winner of the first ever season of Tough Enough. Before he was showcased on reality television and being given the opportunity to knock The Undertaker over the top rope at a Royal Rumble, Maven was working as a Grade 6 teacher. Maven’s run in the WWE had more downs than ups, and he spent some time away from the business. He made his return to the ring in the summer of 2015, but how long this stint in the business will last is unknown.

16. Layla – NBA Dancer
The WWE Diva who retired from the pro wrestling industry in the summer of 2015 and who was once part of the team “LayCool” had a much different career before her days inside of the ring. Layla was a dancer for National Basketball Association side the Miami Heat, and she also served as a backup dancer for John Legend and Carnival Cruise Lines. The spotlight was on her once she made her way to the WWE, and Layla would also have a successful modeling career after breaking into the wrestling company. She was largely an afterthought on the roster when she announced that she was stepping away from the business.
