“Turned around the lives of both Jake Roberts and Scott Hall” sounds like one of the biggest lies in all of wresting, and yet DDP did that. That by itself is hall of fame worthy.

I think Booker T's brother was used in WWE for a bit if I remember right. They were tag team champs in WCW, and in WCCW. Rhyno and Raven were WCW but was signed to be part of the ECW invasion at the same time.
