WWF Debut: June 22, 1998 on RAW. His opponent was Jose Estrada. During the match, he sailed over the top rope to deliver a somersault on Jose, who was on the floor. Adam's leg hit Jose's neck with high impact, causing Jose to suffer a jammed neck, which put him on the injured list. The incident shook Adam up, but he returned to active competition and scored impressive victories over the likes of Quebecer Pierre and Jeff Jarrett.
