The Rated-R Superstar has accomplished seemingly everything there is to do in WWE, including being one of just two men to win a Royal Rumble, Money In the Bank, and King of the Ring.

But before his world title glory in the WWE, Edge appeared in WCW, as Damon Striker.

No relation to Matt, Damon Striker made appearances on WCW B-Shows such as WCW Pro Wrestling, facing (and losing) to the Georgia-based company's more established stars.

In 1998 however, Striker (real name Adam Copeland) would be signed to the WWE, appearing as the mysterious Edge, the silent warrior, later accompanied by Christian and Gangrel.

After tag team success against fellow former jobbers The Hardyz, Edge would go it alone, winning the Intercontinental Championship.

Winning his first WWE Champion in 2006, the Ultimate Opportunist would win World Championship gold eleven times, before retiring due to a neck injury in April 2011.
