The rise and fall of Jack Swagger

September 5, 2012

A frustrated Jack Swagger tells Raw General Manager AJ Lee that he is taking time off: Raw, Sept. 3, 2012

After suffering another loss in the ring, a fustrated Jack Swagger tells Raw General Manager AJ Lee that he is taking time off.

Since debuting just four years ago, Jack Swagger has enjoyed success that other Superstars can only dream of. He’s a former World Heavyweight Champion, ECW Champion, United States Champion and a Money in the Bank winner.

But 2012 hasn’t gone so well for The All-American American. Since losing the United States Title in March, he’s had a rough road. His last win was on the June 7, 2012, edition of "WWE Superstars." ( WATCH)

Finally, on the Sept. 3, 2012, edition of Raw, a thoroughly dejected Swagger had enough and revealed he would be taking some extended time off. ( WATCH)

Is this the end of the road for one of WWE’s most talented Superstars? Take a visual look back at Swagger’s career on this graphic mapping his high and low points.
