10 Forgotten WWE Cameos From Major Stars Before They Were Famous

You just know AEW's MJF is struggling to stay silent there.

His one and only WWE moment came at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn II. There, minutes before Samoa Joe dropped the NXT Title to Shinsuke Nakamura, a certain 'Elite' loudmouth walked behind him in the hallway. Or, at least, MJF was supposed to walk behind Joe.

He raced ahead of the then-NXT Champ, which prompted Joe to give Friedman a firm shove as if to say, 'Know your role, son'. If you've never seen the clip before, here's a quick recap. Looking back, that had to be planned beforehand. Either that or MJF just knows how to squeeze the most from even the smallest of roles.

WWE missed the boat big time on Friedman. As a bonus, check out his long-forgotten Tough Enough audition too. Who looked at that and thought, 'Nah, kid doesn't have anything'? Were they blind and/or deaf? MJF is proving the doubters wrong in AEW.
