Speaking of eventual TNA/Impact veterans who tried their hand at making it in the land of sports entertainment, former TNA X-Division and World Tag Team Champion Frankie Kazarian could also surprisingly be found in the thick of the Ruthless Aggression chaos.

In between stints in the company he would ultimately become synonymous with, Kaz opted to sign with WWE in 2005. And after a few months down in OVW, the future AEW man was finally given his debut on Velocity, boasting a gimmick that saw him confessing to being "The Future" of Vinnie Mac's company.

Said future lasted a grand total of about a month, with Kazarian reportedly later claiming his decision to quickly part ways with the biggest promotion on the planet largely stemmed from it becoming clear that the company had zero intentions of properly revamping its cruiserweight division.

He'd then return to his former home a year on before later making an impact in both ROH and The Land of All Elite as the years rolled by.

But it still makes for a pretty strange visual to see the long-time TNA legend spouting some cocky words into a WWE mic backstage before taking it to Nunzio inside of one of their squared circles.

You really just never know who you're going to spot next during a cheeky revisit to the bizarro world known as the time of Ruthless Aggression, eh.
