#1 Brodie Lee once worked as a librarian in a public school

Brodie Lee was quite an imposing character when he stepped into a wrestling ring, but outside of the business, he was quite an educated man and even revealed that before he began training as a wrestler he worked as a librarian.

Brodie Lee appeared on the Talk is Jericho podcast back in 2015, when he recalled that he got his big break through a family member.

"I was a librarian in a city school. That is correct. I kind of got hooked up through a family member who kind of had a connection and I applied and took the civil service test and all this stuff and kind of got in. I was actually the keeper of the textbooks and stuff, but I helped in the library."

It wasn't until a few years later that Harper started his career on the independent circuit and would later leave his job as a librarian as his career in the ring continued to become more lucrative.
