Return of the kid

Return of the Kid

There is no denying that X-Pac has had a very interesting career. Long-time X-Pac supporters will undoubtedly recall that when the youngster burst upon the scene, he was known as the 1-2-3 Kid. The Kid earned his moniker by his lightning-fast victory over Razor Ramon in the Manhattan Center in New York City during a Monday Night Raw. From his auspicious start, the 1-2-3 Kid went on to have a very successful career during his first stint in the WWF. However, like many long-time employees who work at one place too long, the Kid became stale in his surroundings and begged out of his contract after his friends Razor Ramon (Scott Hall) and Diesel (Kevin Nash) joined WCW.

At first the WWF refused to honor the Kid's request. But eventually, they grew tired of his moaning and complaining and let him go. Free of his WWF obligations, the Kid, through the help and influence of Hall, received a sizable money offer from WCW. The Kid immediately signed and within weeks, he was accompanying Hall to the ring. Hall and Nash nicknamed him Syxx, and he became a big part of the "Outsiders" group in the nWo (Note: I believe the author meant "The Wolfpack"). However, Syxx's tenure in WCW was greatly marred by injury and controversy, and when his contract expired, he was let go by WCW (Another Note: I believe this info is inaccurate. To my knowledge, Syxx still had a year and a half left on his contract at the time he was fired by WCW; his contract *never* expired).

Sean Waltman (his given name) was only home less than a week when he received a call he thought would never come - from the WWF. Considering the way that Waltman had left the WWF, he felt that he would never return there. But, let's not forget that the wrestling profession has its own set of rules, and you should never say "never." When Sean got the call from the WWF offices in Stamford, Connecticut, he immediately boarded the next flight from Minnesota to Stamford. And in a matter of days, he was christened X-Pac and reunited with another friend, Hunter Hearst Helmsley, in D-Generation X!

Since rejoining the WWF, X-Pac has become an integral part of DX and is now one of the biggest stars in the Federation. And to think that it all started with a quick 1-2-3 on RAW more than five years ago!
