7 top stars you might not know once worked for WWE - where are they now?

#5 Luchasaurus competed in WWE NXT for some time

Judas Devlin has turned his fortunes around as the Luchasaurus

After making his wrestling debut in 2009, Luchasaurus signed with WWE in 2012 and was assigned to Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) by WWE. Under the ring name Judas Devlin, he seemed to have a lot of promise and even teamed up with Corey Graves for some time.

After FCW became WWE NXT, Devlin was moved to the brand but competed only in house shows rather than televised matches. After suffering a hip injury in 2014, Devlin was released from his WWE NXT contract.

It took him a long time to get back in shape and he returned to wrestling in 2016, after which he started working his way up in the independent circuit again. He soon signed with Lucha Underground where he debuted a new character known as Vibora.

In 2019, he joined WWE’s rival promotion All Elite Wrestling (AEW) and took up the Luchasaurus character. He seems to be having a good run in AEW, and we could go on to see him become an important mid-card player in the company.
