If you put together a yoga empire that simultaneously saves the lives of some of wrestling's most beloved legends and seemingly keeps the rest of the industry in shape, the chances are you are going to be one of the most respected men going. This is most definitely the case when it comes to Diamond Dallas Page, the brains behind DDPYoga.

DDP must be one of the strangest success stories in wrestling history. A late starter, DDP didn't make his debut until he was 35 years old, getting his training from Jake 'The Snake' Roberts and the WCW Power Plant. DDP would come back to offer a hand to Jake when Roberts was at his lowest ebb, cementing his legacy in the process.

Page also gave a chance to Scott Hall when it seemed as though the former WWE Intercontinental Champion was all out of chances. Both Hall and Roberts have gone on to become WWE Hall of Famers, and DDP is surely a shoe-in to join them sooner rather than later.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
