10 Former WWE Stars Who Have Surprisingly Normal Jobs

7. Shawn Stasiak

Stasiak didn't have the most illustrious wrestling career. The most memorable thing he did was play second fiddle to the Pretty Mean Sisters (PMS - thanks, Russo) group of Terri Runnels, Ryan Shamrock and Jacqueline Moore. Pedestrian in the ring, Stasiak stood out due to his unique ring gear, that was made to look like underwear, and his ring name MEAT. The love slave was cut by the WWE when he was found to be secretly recording wrestlers' conversations backstage. What a fool. He then landed in WCW, where he became something of a featured player in their dying days, before coming back to the E when Vince bought them out. His second WWE run was nothing to write home about: he was used as a comedy character during the Invasion storyline and, when he returned from knee surgery, was repackaged as 'Planet Stasiak', a somewhat schizophrenic character who talked to himself and acted bizarre. After a few months of jobbing, Stasiak asked for, and was granted, his release. Nowadays, Stasiak works as a licensed chiropractor and motivational speaker and is by all accounts very successful. His recent attempt to come back to WWE, however, was less so. They had zero interested in the 45-year-old.
