DDP was not always a professional wrestler. He would begin his career as a valet, and manager to other wrestlers on the WCW roster. However, after a few years, he would begin training as a wrestler, and soon after rocketed to the top.
During his early days, he won the WCW Television Championship, the United States Heavyweight Championship, and finally the WCW World Heavyweight Championship at 43 years old. His prime came at the later half of his career, and he showed the world anything is possible, if one is dedicated enough.
LA Knight is on a similar path, and at Money in the Bank, it would be time for him to show his worth to the world.
