20 Wrestlers You Totally Forgot Wrestled For AEW

3. Diamond Dallas Page

By the time Diamond Dallas Page wrestled on the 15 January 2020 Bash At The Beach edition of AEW Dynamite, he was already familiar to AEW audiences, and not just because he's Diamond Dallas Page.

The WCW legend had first appeared during Cody and Dustin Rhodes' iconic battle at the inaugural Double or Nothing pay-per-view, with later Dynamite appearances seeing the WWE Hall of Famer helping Cody fend off the Inner Circle, and presenting MJF with the Dynamite Diamond Ring.

That, of course, set the seeds for the Bash At The Beach contest, where DDP - teaming with Dustin Rhodes and QT Marshall - were felled by MJF, the Butcher, and the Blade in a decent match. It was imperative here that the former WCW World Heavyweight Champion didn't get too much in-ring time as his body simply can't go the distance anymore. The build to his hot tag from Rhodes was, however, exceptional, with Page getting in about a minute of straight offence.

Keep in mind that this was his first proper match since 2011 - 2015 and 2016 appearances in the Royal Rumble and Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal didn't get too much out of the guy - before criticising his work on Dynamite.
