Billy Gunn was another integral part of the Attitude Era, having been a part of the popular D-Generation X faction, as well as The New Age Outlaws. After debuting in 1993, he was a part of the WWE for over a decade before leaving the promotion in 2004.

He won the tag team titles on 11 occasions, while also having reasonable success as a singles star, winning the Hardcore and Intercontinental title.

After a stint with TNA/Impact Wrestling, he returned to WWE in 2012 and had a three-year run with the company, before being released for testing positive for performance-enhancing drugs.

He returned for the RAW 25 years episode in 2018, before being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame with D-Generation X just days after signing for AEW as a producer.

He even made an appearance at AEW's very first show Double or Nothing, where he was a part of the Battle Royal on the pre-show.
