10 Wrestlers You Didn't Realise Wrestled For WWE In 1997

10. Chris Candido

"No Gimmicks Needed" had flown the WWF coop in the fall of 1996, unceremoniously quitting the company after a number of incidents involving The Kliq. It didn't seem like he would ever return, having rediscovered his niche in ECW, where he could just be a wrestler, and not a gaudy-looking BodyDonna. That's why it was weird to see him resurface on Raw one night in June 1997.

At the time, Raw was a haven for brief matches featuring non-WWF talent, and Candido popped up for a match with USWA's Brian Christopher (the future Grand Masta Sexay). Candido was just nine days removed from an ECW Championship match against the revered Terry Funk, and worked a short match with Christopher before Rob Van Dam caused a disqualification.
