5 of the best invasions in WWE history

This isn't WWE's first invasion

#3 Radicalz

Those
Those four guys were quite unexpected

The Monday Night Wars were a very unpredictable time in pro wrestling. Unbeknownst to most pro wrestling fans, there were four guys in World Championship Wrestling who saw the writing on the walls and wanted out.

Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko, and Perry Saturn soon showed up on Raw and make a huge impression.

Bruce Prichard revealed on his "Something To Wrestle With" that Malenko, Saturn, and Guerrero all said separately that if Vince McMahon and company couldn't take them, they asked them to at least take Chris Benoit.

After all, Benoit was a world-class performer and was dating the wife of then WCW booker Kevin Sullivan and they feared he would be buried in WCW.

Therefore on January 31st, 2000, while DX members Road Dogg and Billy Gunn were in a tag match against Al Snow & Steve Blackman, the Radicalz made their presence known.

It wasn't long before Benoit, Guerrero, Malenko, and Saturn were regulars on WWF television, but it all started in very surprising fashion.
