5. Wade Barrett
Wade started out the year as the Intercontinental champion, but after another lack luster run, he dropped the title atWrestleMania 31, and eventually fell down the card, as creative slowly stripped away his somewhat popular “Bad News Barrett” gimmick. The King of the Ring tournament eventually came around and Barrett ended up winning, giving him a new “King” gimmick to work with.
Of course, he was jobbed continuously and the thought of him being a king became laughable in a hurry, so they tried to team him with Stardust, which didn’t last long, and now he’s a member of Sheamus’ League of Nation Stable to give him something to do. Overall, Barrett muddled aimlessly around the midcard for most of 2015, which is a far drop from someone who was once pegged as a potential world champion.
