Former WWE World Tag Team and European Champion Gregory Shane Helms - best known by fans as The Hurricane - announced today that he has signed a Legends contract with the company.Helms first broke into the mainstream wrestling scene in World Championship Wrestling, as part of the (in this writer's opinion highly underrated) faction Three Count - which was a parody of boy bands that were extremely popular in the late 1990s. Following the sale of WCW, he would move to WWE, where he was part of the Invasion storyline.Hurricane Helms@ShaneHelmsComI signed a WWE Legends deal so I guess that makes it official… I’m old. 🏻2:56 AM · Mar 24, 20227571265I signed a WWE Legends deal so I guess that makes it official… I’m old. 😁👍🏻Eventually, he would create the persona he would be best known for, The Hurricane - a superhero wrestler based on Green Lantern from DC Comics (which Helms is an admitted huge fan.)While Helms would go on to work with numerous wrestling promotions over the years, he always seemed to make his way back to WWE. Prior to signing this Legends deal, he had been working backstage with the company as a producer.
