11 WWE Wrestlers You Didn’t Know Appeared In WCW

5. Matt Borne

The man who would one day become one of WWF's most legendary heels in Doink the clown; Matt Borne had a brief stint at WCW in 1991-1992. Debuting as Big Josh, Borne wrestled several snoozers, but eventually had a tag team title run with Ron Simmons, a far cry from his future as Doink. However, his questionable ring name of Big Josh certainly leaves something to be desired. Borne's WCW run was also before the days of Nitro, meaning there was less time for exposure and getting over, which he simply didn't do with the WCW crowds. Although he passed away in 2013, fans will be able to forget his crummy time with WCW for the sheer brilliance of the Doink the Clown character that he created... washing away any painful memories of Big Josh.
