Some fans may not know this, but Daniel Bryan’s first matches in WWE came as early as 2000 where he worked a handful of Jakked tapings. He worked Jakked tapings as Bryan Danielson as well as American Dragon.

The future WWE Champion appeared as an enhancement talent but WWE decided against signing him and he went on to become, in time, one of the best talents not signed to the company.

#1 The Rock and Big Show

When the Big Show signed with WWE, he was not a popular figure backstage. Not only had he come from WCW, but, he was also on a big contract which caused some tension in the locker room. One person who Big Show said helped him get through this time was The Rock. Here’s what Show said on Broken Skull Sessions:

Rock was good to me. Rock was very nice to me. And Rock was doing his own thing and building himself as well. It was too lightning rod hot to be friends with. I was a new guy. I was a big guy. I got in that big contract and all that stuff that pissed everybody off.

The Rock and Big Show went on to be good friends and in the photo, we see Rock and Show enjoying some downtime before a show.
