#4. Matt Hardy was probably the first 19 year old in the company

Matt Hardy was arguably the first WWE Superstar to debut as a teenager. He made his debut as an enhancement talent in 1994 on an episode of Monday Night Raw. Matt was 19 years of age at the time of his first match.

He took on Nikolai Volkoff in his first match. Matt continued to compete in several matches as an enhancement talent throughout the year and started gaining some experience.

It wasn’t until 1996 that Jeff and Matt got to tag together in the company. Hardy has become a household name over the years. Along with his brother Jeff, he managed to carve a niche for himself in the industry.


#3. Former WWE Divas Champion Paige was only 19 when she made her debut

Paige was born in August 1992. She participated in a try-out for the company in 2010 but failed. In 2011, she succeeded and was signed by the company at just 19 years of age.

She made her debut for FCW at a house show in January 2012, under the ring name Saraya. The company changed her ring name to Paige and she debuted on FCW television soon after.

Paige turned out to be one of the most successful female superstars for the company in 2010s. However, an unfortunate injury cut the former NXT Women’s Champion’s career short.
