This Day in Wrestling History

This day we would like to wish a happy birthday to former WCW/WWE star Shane Helms aka The Hurricane. Today is the 37th birthday for the former cruserwieght champion & tag team champion. Helms was one of the few that actually particpatted in OMEGA (nerd note: the Hardy Boys old promotion) that didnt get signed by WWE him and Shannon Moore are the two. While growing up he was and still is very close to Matt & Jeff as well as Shannon they all worked together in OMEGA till the Hardys closed the company. Instead of getting signed by WWE, they worked hard went to WCW forming a Tag Team called, 3 count which they were a boy band thought of by Jimmy Hart (Evan Karagis, Shannon Moore, & Shane Helms.) After they broke up helms found his ture callingin the cruserwieght division having the distiction of being the last cruserwieght champion under the WCW banner. Coming to the WWE he dawnded a new character The Hurricane still in the cruserwieght division and won the title a few times but then moved to RAW and became a 2 time tag team champion with Rosey and Kane. Though people think hurricane was a joke he was actually and still is a great worker if he wasnt why has he won some many belts. Finally he became Gregory Helms and the longest reging cruserwieght champion in history with a 385 day regin as Cruserwieght Champion. (Nerd Note: Helms also held the WCW Hardcore title with the rest of 3 count after beating Brian Knobs in a handicap match.)
