Fairly sure he never wrestled. 

Even a thicko like Tito isn't stupid enough to come back and wrestle after that, letting Mr Anderson bury you in the worst way ever.

Just remembered Tyson Fury had a wrestling match, while trying to remember the name of the guy who wrestled Brock out there. 

Kinda count in that they seem special attraction deals, but you know they'd have been used more if it went great.

I've said this before I'm sure, but the fact Tyson Fury worked a match in WWE whilst being the actual genuine legitimate reigning heavyweight boxing champion of the world and it barely registering with anyone is just utterly bonkers.

Giant Haystacks lasted in WCW for just over a month as Loch Ness. He left due to health issues rather than getting binned but it was still a bit of a flash in the pan appearance. 

Completely forgot that Cain Velasquez had a match against Brock Lesnar for the WWE title. I remember there being a bit of buzz around him after he had a surprisingly decent showing in a AAA match a couple of months earlier. After looking it up I didn't realise he had actually signed a WWE contract but got let go as part of the cuts during COVID.

Between Tough Enough, Diva Search, and the early NXT before it became developmental there's bound to be a few "I forgot all about them".

One that those at the time might remember is eventual Tough Enough winner: Daniel Puder. Caught the eye in a shoot segment with Kurt Angle. Where he outperformed expectations which as a rookie in that era you're not supposed to do. Would have a PPV match against fellow contestant The Miz at Armageddon. Wins Tough Enough. Competes in the Royal Rumble. Then it's off to developmental and eventually out the door. Does some MMA fights. Has a short stint in ROH. Then works a tour with NJPW that's him basically done with wrestling.

Did yer man 'Silent Rage' from the Austin era of Tough Enough ever have a main roster match? I remember him being in a few backstage segments and that's about it.
