Pretty self explainatory.
I ALWAYS rooted for Shannon Moore. Literally, always, even when he fought Brock Lesnar in the main event on Smackdown, I still was glad he got the spot even though it was just a joke for Lesnar. I also remember I was thrilled when he went to TNA even though I didn't watch TNA a lot back then.

"Iron" Mike Sharpe.
He was always yelling through the whole match.

Barry Horowitz.
He was the first jobber I recognized (I didn't see the Brooklyn Brawler till later, since I started watching in 94). I liked him even before the "HOROWITZ WINS" situation, when he was about to challenge Jeff Jarrett for the Intercontinental Championship before Bob Backlund ruined things.

I always liked Moore, too.
And I love Jimmy Yang Wang.

I remember the tag team of Duane Gill and Barry Hardy always brought a smile to my face. They were bad guys (In as much as jobbers can be good guys or bad guys) who talked tough at the start of the match (Not in a promo or anything) and then had the tar beaten out of them. The 'elevation' of Gill to the JOB Squad pleased me no end.

The Big Valboski... though he probably doesn't fall under the true Jobber field, being that up until he got released, he would get big pops at house shows. That, and he was a former IC Champ.
I'd say Disco Inferno, but he was a Multi-Time TV champ, so that doesn't count either...
Hmmm, Spirit Squad had titles too... hmmm
Chris Masters was MidCard..... hmmmm
Glacier! Finally, a true jobber...once they realized they wasted a bunch of time and cash on a crappy gimmick.

oh oh oh I legit loved the Conquistadors. I SO wanted them to win the Survivor Series Tag Match in 88 Of course they had to let the Powers of Pain destroy them after spending five minutes picking up Mr Fuji I suppose you could throw in Low-Ki for me as well. Before I knew of his indy career I knew him as a jobber on Metal |

Ron Cumberledge - Don't know whatever became of him, but he looked impressive in his job losses when he was on WWF Superstars back in the day, including a good loss to Ric Flair.
Allan West - Jobber in the WWF, but he seemed somewhat over in tag teams in the AWA, though I don't know if he ever won any gold in the AWA.
Whatever became of Ron Cumberledge? He was one of those dudes who I thought was going to be big, but after wrestling a few years in the indies, he fell into obscurity.

Hands down...Jim Powers.
Every week I would watch him wrestle on Superstars or Wrestling Challenge, I always thought this was the week he would pull off a victory. It never happened.

Power & Glory and Repo Man, the poor pushes these 3 received always baffled me, especially Power & Glory, I thought they could of gone far, apart from the victory over The Rockers at a Summerslam they were jobbed out most of the time, didn't Legion of Doom squash them in about 10 seconds at a Wrestlemania?
