Up next on our list is Billy Kidman. Kidman was one of the stars of WCW’s cruiserweight division before signing with WWE in 2001 as part of the Invasion angle. Kidman was a multiple-time cruiserweight champion with both WCW and WWE and later went on to become a trainer with FCW. He currently works backstage in WWE as a producer.

Kidman has wins over a number of WWE legends during his WWE career including Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio. However, the biggest name he’s beaten was a young John Cena back in late 2002.

Cena won the first singles match between the two Superstars on the October 15th taping on SmackDown. Kidman won their match on the following week of SmackDown which caused Cena to viciously attack him post-match. This would lead to a mixed tag team match at the WWE Rebellion with Cena teaming up with Dawn Marie to face Billy Kidman and future WWE Hall of Famer Torrie Wilson. In case you were wondering, Kidman and Wilson ended up winning that match.
