My Take
Crash Holly genuinely tugs at me. Michael Lockwood was undersized for the ring at 175 cm, yet he turned that into legend through the WWE hardcore division's 24/7 rule, defending the title against anyone, anywhere, in gleefully absurd skits that were equal parts comedy and chaos. He was never the marquee main-eventer, but he gave his body to entertain the crowd, and that workmanlike spirit is exactly what I admire in wrestling. Losing him in 2003 at just 32 still lands as a quiet tragedy. To me he remains an unforgettable underdog.
