Then: Billy Gunn was another star who sprinted to the ring whilst everyone's eyes were elsewhere; fans, and WWE's cameras, were more invested in a brawl between Steve Austin and Triple H than what 'The One' was up to.

Former DX man Gunn worked just over seven minutes in the Rumble, didn't eliminate anyone and was thrown out by Austin.

Now: He landed in AEW.

OK, not really. It's been a long road back towards happiness for Billy, but he looks content alongside his son Austin in All Elite. Together, they work tags as The Gunn Club, and it must be a personal thrill for Billy to work with his boy.
