Don Callis re-entered the wider wrestling conversation in 2020 when he became the on-screen associate of AEW Champion Kenny Omega despite holding down a role of significant backstage power in Impact Wrestling.

The pair of have since been on a tear as megalomaniacal heels that claim to have devised and executed this cross-promotional masterplan for several years. It's the sort of gamesmanship you'd expect from somebody that categorically could not find work in a competitive industry's market leader. Callis - despite not working there for over two decades - remains on that sh*t list.

Countless wrestlers that worked with 'The Jackyl' during his 1997-99 run with WWE have spoken about how despised he was by all and sundry. Bradshaw has been named in various accounts as one of the wrestlers furious enough that he banned him from changing with others, as well as insisting that The Hardy Boyz rib him in order to pay their own backstage penance.

And what had they done?
