Where are they now? Just-in indy feds


Justin Credible



Justin Credible is the next guy to enter the 'where are they now?' section of my blog. Hardcore ECW fans and those who have watched wrestling for over 10 years might remember this dude, but even some of the newer fan base might have seen his last few appearances in WWE a few years ago when there was an ECW brand. 

After learning his trade in Canada and wrestling in a few New England based promotions,  Justin Credible started in the WWE back in 1993 as a jobber named PJ. He spent a few years there before being released. ECW was where he really rose to fame, spending 4 years in the company. After ECW folded he was hred back at the WWE as part of the X Factor stable. He was later part of the Alliance [as one of the ECW guys that defected to the original WCW/ECW stable] but after the Alliance was 'beaten,' his importance was reduced in 2002 to occasional matches on Heat [with him losing most of them]. 

Justin Credible has since made a brief appearance in the WWE in 2006, wrestling as part of the ECW brand where he had a few matches. Other than that he has spent most of his time working in the independent circuit.

I should note that I personally enjoyed Justin Credible's short if not slightly irrelevant stint in the WWE over 10 years ago [although his 2006 one was even more irrelevant], but I do find it a shame that the WWE decided to change his rather impressive spinning tombstone piledriver [named 'That's Incredible'] to a 'Lifting DDT' finisher. I suppose he was too insignificant to have a move that would outshine The Undertaker's finisher, so they gave him a more generic move.
