Arriving in the World Wrestling Federation as the kayfabe brother of Edge, Jay Reso (who was the real life best friend of Edge) debuted as “Christian”, and would be part of a group called the Brood. Edge and Christian would break away forming a championship tag team (7 times) and were the most entertaining and successful tag team in the first two years of the new millennium.

While Edge would go on to greater heights, Christian would have a pretty good singles career of his own, winning the Intercontinental Championship on multiple occasions and put on quality matches. Christian may never have been a regular main event performer, but he was high up on the card and work rate wise had few peers.

Should Christian be in the Hall of Fame?

Why they will get in: There are few have more WWE titles on their resume than Christian.
Why they won't get in: Christian was never a favorite of management so it would seem. It was alleged that Vince wanted to put a blue dot over his face when he wrestled. He also was not really a main eventer in the WWE.
