10 Wrestlers You Didn't Know Competed At Wrestle Kingdom

10. Rob Conway

Many of you may only know this man as the origin of the term "Conway Pop", which is when a wrestler comes out to little or no crowd reaction.

Aside from this ironic and slightly humiliating term, Rob Conway is also famous for wrestling in the WWE between 2003 and 2007.

He was part of La Resistance (despite not being French at all) and won the World Tag Team Championships three times. However, it was outside of WWE where Conway would be more successful in terms of gold.

In 2013, Conway defeated Kahagas for the NWA World's Heavyweight Championship and would hold the title for ten months. His time with the championship allowed him to work in New Japan, with whom the NWA had a working relationship at the time. His highest-profile feud in NJPW was with Japanese legend, Satoshi Kojima.

At Wrestle Kingdom 8, Kojima challenged Conway for the NWA title, marking the first time in twenty years that the belt had been defended in New Japan.

Kojima actually defeated Conway on this night to win the championship, but the former faux Frenchman got it back six months later, before losing it to another Japanese icon, Hiroyoshi Tenzan.
