Wrestling fans usually remember the winners, and that’s why they will never forget great WCW wrestlers like Sting, Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, Vader, Goldberg, Lex Luger, the Steiner brothers, among others. Those wrestlers who often lost, however, have been forgotten. So, chances are you don’t remember some of the wrestlers we’ll mention below.
10 Best Win/Loss Records In WWE History, Ranked By Winning Percentage
WWE relies more on storytelling, but top stars are booked strong. Here are the 10 best win/loss records in WWE history, ranked by winning percentage.
Although they rarely won a match, these wrestlers also played an important role in the company, as they took it upon themselves to eat the pin and put other wrestlers over time and time again. Obviously, there can be no winners without losers.
Note: Win/loss records according to
Cagematch.net
, and we are considering wrestlers with at least 150 matches in WCW.

Kenny Kaos was not a popular wrestler, so you probably forgot about him, or just don’t know who he is. He worked for WCW between 1996 and 1999. He had 157 matches in the promotion, of which he won 51 (15 in singles action), lost 100 and drew six. Kaos won the WCW World Tag Team Championship alongside Rick Steiner in 1998 and was champion for 72 days.

Ironically, Jack Victory did not pick up victories on a regular basis. In three years in WCW, he was only able to win 69 matches, while losing 170 and drawing two, giving him a winning percentage of 28.6. In singles action, his winning percentage was even worse (18.6). Victory had an excellent physique, but his wrestling skills were mediocre, and he had no charisma either, so it’s no wonder he was a loser.
8 Rip Morgan Had A 53-134 Win/Loss Record In WCW

The Ding Dongs (The Great American Bash Tour, July 1989) |
Rip Morgan wrestled in WCW in the early years of the company, when the company wasn’t that popular, so you may not have heard of him. Morgan was never a standout wrestler, as he was always at the bottom of the card.
9 Times WCW Champions Lost Their Titles In A Squash Match
While squashes always existed in wrestling, title changes rarely happened this way. Yet, these 10 WCW wrestlers were squashed to lose their titles.
His winning percentage was 28.0, the product of 53 wins, 134 losses and two draws, and he barely won two singles matches in WCW. He had no outstanding storylines, and no memorable matches. It is worth mentioning that Morgan teamed with Jack Victory for a while, and the two lost many matches together.
7 Dave Taylor Had A 43-113 Win/Loss Record In WCW

Dave Taylor was more talented than fans remember. His in-ring skills were actually good, as he had good technique. Taylor’s problem was his gimmick and his mediocre character work, as he didn’t have the charisma to stand out, and his promos were average. Taylor left a record of 43 wins, six draws and 113 losses in WCW. Taylor had several matches with William Regal during his time in the promotion, but still his winning percentage was quite low.
6 Tex Slazenger Had A 41-112 Win/Loss Record In WCW

The Cole Twins (WCW Saturday Night, July 31 1993) |
Tex Slazenger, better known as Phineas I. Godwinn in WWE, lost a lot of matches in WCW. Despite his size (6′ 6″), he was never able to establish dominance in the ring, and was frequently defeated by smaller wrestlers. Slazenger wrestled in WCW between 1992 and 1995, and left a win-loss record of 41-112, which equals a winning percentage of 25.6. In singles action, his record was even worse, as he won two matches and lost 33.

Marcus Alexander Bagwell & Tex Slazenger (WCW Battlebowl 1993) |
Tex Slazenger’s tag team partner, Shanghai Pierce, better known as Henry O. Godwinn, also appears among the wrestlers with the worst win/loss records in WCW history. This is logical, since they teamed and lost many matches together. In singles matches, Pierce was slightly better than his partner, as he had a record of 8-46. Either way, Pierce was never more than a mid-card wrestler, and he was never a relevant wrestler in WCW.
4 Buddy Lee Parker Had A 27-250 Win/Loss Record In WCW

KroniK (WCW Monday Nitro, January 8 2001) |
Sgt. Buddy Lee Parker, also known as Dewayne Bruce, had a terrible win-loss record in WCW, winning just 27 matches and losing 250, which is equal to a 9.7 winning percentage. In over 10 years at the company, he was never more than a jobber, and rightfully so, as he wasn’t talented enough to compete in a top promotion. Parker’s in-ring skills sucked, and his promo skills were mediocre.
3 Joey Maggs Had A 15-163 Win/Loss Record In WCW

DDP (WCW Main Event, December 4 1995) |
“Jumpin” Joey Maggs worked for WCW for 10 years, but very few fans remember him. This is not surprising, as Maggs was never a relevant wrestler, wasn’t involved in any major storylines, let alone had a memorable match.
10 Worst Theme Songs In WCW History
While WCW featured plenty of great entrance themes, there were also many that were awful and didn’t help the wrestlers get over.
Maggs’ role was to lose, and he lost time and time again. Throughout his WCW career, he won just 15 matches and lost 163, which produced the third-lowest winning percentage in WCW history.

The Italian Stallion (House Show, March 1990) |
Believe it or not, Dutch Mantel had one of the worst win-loss records in WCW history. Mantel had a good career overall. He was a decent in-ring worker and a good manager, so fans still remember him. In fact, Mantel was perhaps one of the most underrated workers in WCW history. He wrestled in WCW for a couple of years and all he did was lose matches over and over again. Mantel left a terrible win/loss record of 12 wins, 151 losses and two draws. He deserved better booking.

Barry Darsow (WCW Saturday Night, October 31 1998) |
The worst win/loss record in WCW history belongs to Barry Horowitz, who won just four matches, lost 151 and drew three, for a winning percentage of 2.5. Horowitz is considered one of the best jobbers in wrestling history. He spent practically his entire career putting other wrestlers over, as he understood his role and fulfilled it to perfection. Horowitz not only has the worst win/loss record in the history of WCW history, but he also has one of the worst records in WWE history (83-674).
