When we think of jobbers, we usually think of guys who don't look tough(Colin Delaney for example) and can be convincingly beaten by guys on the main roster. In your opinon, who couldn't you buy as a jobber? Here's one for me...
Iron Mike Sharpe - I know he was a serious player in the NWA terrotories, but when he hit the WWF, he was used as enhancement talent. I even saw him lose CLEANLY to KOKO B. WARE. I mean, the guy was 6'7, growled, and looked like he can murder somebody. They should've at least gave him a monster push only to be fed to Hulk Hogan. A little bit more than how he was used in the company.
Anybody else you can think of?

Any of the guys who were built/cut like Paul Roma, Jim Powers, etc. Sure, they were only 5'9, 5'10 but these guys were built like tanks and sometimes losing to guys whose closest celebrity dopplegangers were the Stay Puft Man.

Wasn't he jobbing to Hogan Rip in "No Holds Barred" as well? |

Rick Fuller was a a 300+ pound guy who routinely got beat easily by smaller guys. The Roadblock was the same way.

No, believe it or not the Jake Bullet charactory was played by Demolition Ax aka The Masked Superstars aka Super Machine aka Bill Eadie Btw I always thought Mark Young had something special and should've been more then a jobber, I mean he's Cheif Jay's son and being a high powered road agent at the time had no pull for him. |

I dunno why, but I was a huge fan of the Gambler. I was infuriated when he lost to the debuting Glacier. Bah.
The Armstrongs weren't believable because they were so clearly good in the ring.
High Voltage because they were big, imposing guys.

Rick Gantner, aka Bull Pain. The guy always looked too legit to be a full-on jobber.
