10 People You Had No Idea Worked For WWE
8. Christopher Daniels
On a recent edition of AEW Dynamite, Christopher Daniels and Chris Jericho locked up together for the very first time, despite careers combining over 50 years in the industry between them. And yet, it so nearly could have happened within week's of 'Y2J's iconic WWE debut.
Before he became known as a 'Fallen Angel' everywhere else in wrestling, Daniels was rising star working numerous enhancement spots for WWE and WCW until Ring Of Honor gave him a big break in 2002.
From 1998 onwards, Daniels impressed enough examining the lights on house shows that he earned regular jobber spots on weekend television shows where the role hadn't yet become obsolete.
