I know it was forever ago and it's not exactly the same situation but...Kurt Angle?
Had a pretty distinguished wrestling career, amateur and pro. Was a frequent main-eventer during the Attitude era, and generally had excellent matches, even though he was overshadowed by the bigger names of the time. Granted, no one would have ever known who he was if he was only Kurt Angle the Olympic medalist.
I do agree with you about Brock though, at least as far as the past decade or so.
