Canadian Joe Htichen started his career wrestling alongside future WWF stars Jackyl (Don Callis), Rhyno (Rhino Richards), Edge (Sexton Hardcastle) and Christian (Christian Cage) under the moniker Joe E. Legend. However, he never quite reached the heights of any of those men. When he finally joined the WWF in Summer of 2000, Legend moved from working dark matches against the likes of The Dupps and Scott Vick to an on-screen role as "Just Joe". Appearing on Sunday Night Heat and syndicated Jakked, Joe was rarely successful in his wrestling matches. Outside of the ring, he often appeared in vignettes designed to stir up trouble between other wrestlers. In the end, Joe's run with WWF was brief and he was crowded out by the incoming hordes of former ECW and WCW talent. After being released in March 2001, Joe continued to wrestle around the world and has often appeared for international promotions in countries including South Africa, Russia and throughout the United Kingdom.
