Stan Hansen

Refused to drop the American Wrestling Association heavyweight title in 1984, even when told directly by AWA president Verne Gagne. Never officially dropped the title and was stripped of it for failure to defend it in thirty days. When the AWA asked him to return the belt since he wasn't champion anymore, Stan agreed to do so. But not until after he destroyed it by driving over it with his 4X4 pickup countless times. This led to Stan Hansen basically being blackballed from the North American wrestling scene for six years, which was fine with Hansen since he made most of his money in Japan anyway.
