People were critical of the choices at the time, but three years later and amazingly seven of these guys have stuck around, and most of them are doing very well. In fact, there are more 'rookies' remaining from Season One than pros.
Skip Sheffield - The Ryback is a main eventer and has the rocket strapped to his (acne filled) back
Darren Young - The man who looks like John Cena in blackface is one half of the cult favorite tag team, Prime Time Playas (is is Playas? If it isnt, it should be)
Justin Gabriel - Undercard B-show babyface, who two decades ago would have been a huge territory star drawing "blowjobs" to arenas throughout the south
Wade Barrett - Intercontinental champion, international bad ass. Showed immense promise from day one, and is fulfilling it
David Otunga - He clearly does not have the "it" factor, but he has found a niche as a comedy heel.
Daniel Bryan - Has succeeded beyond anybodies most optimistic projections, and did it in the complete opposite way than what was expected
Michael Tarver - Only guy who didn't make it in the WWE, but being the FUW BRUISERWEIGHT CHAMPION and breaking up worked shoots over the prestigous NWA World Title is a nifty consolation
Heath Slater - Fantastic jobber who probably deserves better. I though this guy was a bum on the show, but he has really won me over. He's great in his role.
Daniel Bryan's first two WWE words were 'YES', and 'YES'. Interesting.
