10 Wrestlers Who Had One Match In WWE

6. Lou Thesz

Regarded as one of the greatest wrestlers of all-time, Lou Thesz was a three-time NWA World Champion, holding the title for a combined total of ten years, three months and nine days, more than anyone else in history. 

He was basically retired by the 1970's, working select matches here and there, but came out of retirement in the late 80's for a one-off match in WWE. 

The shooter was booked in a Legends Battle Royal on a November 11, 1987 house show in New Jersey. And the 71-year-old Thesz won the bout, outlasting the likes of Ray Stevens, Pedro Morales, Chief Jay Strongbow and Bobo Brazil. 

Though it was a historic match in many ways, it was not a happy occasion or everyone. 

Macho Man Randy Savage (who wrestled Harley Race that night) was furious that his father, promoter and wrestler Angelo Poffo, wasn't included in the Legends Battle Royal and held a grudge against Vince McMahon over it. 

As well as Thesz, another famous shooter with one WWE match on their resume was Billy Robinson, who wrestled for the then-WWWF on an MSG card in November 1975, defeating Johnny Rodz.
