New ECW wrestler Atlas Ortiz debuted in former WWE developmental territory Ohio Valley Wrestling back in January 2007. He has a football background, including a stint in Vince McMahon's defunct XFL. He has been working in Florida Championship Wrestling (the current WWE developmental home) as Atlas DaBone. You can check out his Wikipedia page by clicking here.

Powell's POV: This was my first exposure to Ortiz, so I don't have too much to say about him. I wasn't blown away by his performance, but I'm sure WWE officials like Ortiz's size. I'm happy they changed his last name if for no other reason than this paragraph would read differently if he still went by DaBone.
