5 Former WCW stars that might get used in All Elite Wrestling

#1. DDP

DDP got a late start as an in-ring worker but was one of the most memorable stars from WCW.

Instead of talking the talk or walking the walk, the owner of the best Diamond Cutter or RKO in the business has been helping former wrestlers change their lives through his yoga system. Guys like Jake Roberts and Scott Hall have changed their lives with his help despite having their fair share of relapses.

Diamond Dallas Page was among the more talented guys on the mic and he was appealing to the crowd partly because he started in the ring as an older guy rather than a young, jacked-up 25-year old. He did win the WCW Heavyweight Championship but his transition to WWE after the collapse of WCW was totally botched.

His hair was cut and he returned to "stalk" the Undertaker's then-wife Sara. It immediately killed his credibility. DDP could still be relevant to today's younger generation due to his yoga. Who wouldn't pop if he hit someone with a Diamond Cutter?
