Most Overqualified Jobber: Brad Rheingans

‘Most Overqualified Jobber’
Brad Rheingans 
 
The guy is said to be “One of the best amateur-wrestlers of all time and under the top 5 wrestling coaches in the world.”  But he was used as a worthless jobber, at least in the WWF circa 1987.
 
This Brad Rheingans guy is a very accomplished amateur wrestler.  He was an NCAA Division I All-American (1975), NCAA Division II Champion (1975) and a member of the Olympic Games team (1976 placed fourth, 1980 didn’t competed because of the U.S. boycott)… and a WWF jobber in 1987.  Oups!
