15. Kevin Nash – Basketball Player/Bouncer
It likely comes as little surprise that an athlete with the size of Kevin Nash was once interested in playing basketball at the professional level. A knee injury that he picked up long before he broke into pro wrestling kept him from reaching stardom in the NBA, so he attempted to find a life in the sport overseas. Nash also spent time as a bouncer in Michigan. Success in wrestling was not immediate for Nash, as he had several failed gimmicks in WCW before he found work in the WWF. Nash has since made a ton of money in wrestling and also via acting gigs.
