"The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels

"The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels
And now a person that I think is really under rated.
He's a very solid in ring performer and has the showmanship ability a lot of wrestlers lack.
This has nothing to do with the fact that he's from my home state.
Heck, if this keeps up I may just do a blog on North Carolina Wrestlers.
Daniel Christopher Covell was born on December 24, 1973 Fayetteville, North Carolina.
He is a pro wrestler better known by his ring names "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels or Curry Man.
Daniels wrestled for the WCW back in 2001 and had a famous match during an episode of WCW Monday Nitro where he botched an attempted springboard moonsault, nearly breaking his neck. Despite losing almost all control of his left arm, he wrestled the match to it's finish.
Daniels was offered a 90-day contracts after the match, but the WWF bought WCW right after that and Christopher would never wrestle for the WCW again.

Chastity - Denise Riffle - ECW and WCW

Chastity - Denise Riffle - ECW and WCW
Denise Riffle was born June 18, 1971 in Baltimore, Maryland. She is an American former professional wrestling valet, better known as Chastity.

After training under Raven and Corporal Punishment, Denise Riffle became a wrestling valet in 1996, and worked on the independent circuit as Brittany Bottoms.

She joined ECW in 1997 and changed her name to Chastity. She was the valet for the bWo before joining Raven's Nest. She gained a reputation during this time for spraying her enemies with a fire extinguisher. When Raven left ECW to join WCW in late-1997, Riffle became the valet for Justin Credible. She had several catfights with Beulah McGillicutty, and received numerous piledrivers from McGillicutty's ally Tommy Dreamer. She left ECW shortly after being "fired" by Credible, who repeatedly struck her with his Singapore cane.

Riffle joined WCW in late 1998 and was reunited with Raven when she was featured in several vignettes as his wealthy sister. She began accompanying Raven to the ring, only to turn on him and join forces with Hardcore Hak. She interfered in most of Hak's hardcore matches until she was released in 1999, after WCW discovered that she had once been featured in an adult film titled "Live Bait".

Riffle re-emerged in Xtreme Pro Wrestling as the valet of Lizzy Borden. She helped Borden in her feud with Kristi Myst and was valet of Johnny Webb.

WCW: Maxx Muscle


Jeff Warner
Height: - 6 ft. 5 in.
Weight: 290 lbs.
Hometown: Los Angeles, California
Pro Wrestling Debut: 1989
Managers: Jimmy Hart, The Grappler
Other Gimmicks: Big Juice, Maxx Muscle, J.W. Storm, Agent Storm, Maxx

Jeff Warner began wrestling in 1989 in the NWA's Pacific Northwest territory. He formed a tag team with Art Barr who was using a "Beetlejuice" gimmick called "The Juice Patrol". Warner became "Big Juice". They feuded with Ricky Santana and Curtis Thompson who formed the tag team of "U.S. Male".

Warner then appeared briefly in World Championship Wrestling in 1990 as one half of "Maximum Overdrive" with Tim Hunt but their stay was short-lived.

He wrestled in Pro Wrestling America in the early 1990's and won the tag team titles with Hunt and the television title while there.

In 1990, he arrived in WCW as J.W. Storm. His gimmick soon ended and he became Maxx Muscle, the bodyguard for Diamond Dallas Page. Page was feuding with Dave Sullivan who was chasing Page's valet, The Diamond Doll. Page was having several arm-wrestling contests for the Doll and Maxx usually helped him win by supporting his foot while the referee wasn't looking or even arm-wrestling for Page.

Maxx would always stand behind Page and flex during interviews and Page would end by saying "right Maxx?", to which Maxx would always reply, "absolutely".

In 1995, Maxx and Page split when Page blamed him for several losses and turned on Maxx. Maxx then joined Kevin Sullivan's Dungeon of Doom and was a minor player for the next couple of years.

In 1992, Storm also had tryout matches for the World Wrestling Federation against "The Model" Rick Martel and The Warlord.

He now wrestles in the California-based Pro Wrestling Iron. He now lives in Pine City MN.
