5 WWE Superstars who had odd jobs before being in WWE

#2 Maven - Middle school teacher

Can you imagine Maven as a teacher?

Even though Maven wasn’t as successful as he should have been in WWE, and even in professional wrestling a few years after that, he did have two jobs, before wrestling, and after.

Before winning the first season of Tough Enough back in 2001, Maven was a middle school teacher at Twality Middle School in Tigard, Oregon.

After his four-year run with the WWE in which he can credit three Hardcore Championships to his name, he had a small stint in the Independent circuit and retired in 2007. In 2012, he was arrested for the use of oxycodone and hydrocodone but was bailed out.

It has been apparent that he works as a bouncer now, but has recently returned to professional wrestling and has re-debuted at Brian Myers' Create A Pro Wrestling Academy in Long Island, New York, not too long ago.
