James Storm made his professional wrestling debut in 1997. That's right, the 'Cowboy' may have only really become known to many wrestling fans many years later, but he was around when WWE was still known as the World Wrestling Federation. Better yet, Storm was making his first appearances before Steve Austin won his first WWF Heavyweight Title. That gives some indication of just how much of a veteran the man is. He's best known for his time in TNA, but he's also worked for World Championship Wrestling. Way back at the turn of the millennium, he signed a developmental deal, but would only make a few fleeting appearances on minor shows before the company went out of business. Undeterred, he's been working full-time in the industry ever since. Through his work with TNA, Storm has performed across the globe. That experience edge makes him valuable in today's wrestling world. There aren't too many performers around - certainly not ones still only 38 - with the kind of world-travelled experience that James Storm has. For that very reason, he'd be valuable to WWE. Storm debuted when both WCW and ECW were relevant, which really say something to his experience edge.
