Jason Jordan
Jason Jordan was interviewed by the Miami Herald and talked about how he planned on going to dental school, but put it off to pursue a WWE career. Of course, the idea of having a “dentist” gimmick was thrown around early in his wrestling career.
Jason Jordan DDS?
If WWE SmackDown Superstar Jason Jordan wasn’t wrestling, he could very well be performing a cleaning, a filling, an extraction or even a root canal.
That’s right. Jason Jordan – Doctor of Dental Surgery.
Not the Isaac Yankem type but an actual white coat wearing, gum and tooth professional with office space, elevating chair, X-ray machine, clamps, drills, needles, and other dental instruments…as well as a degree in dentistry planted in viewing range on the wall.
So when he opted for pro wrestling instead, was there any thought of creating a Dr. Isaac Yankem DDS gimmick?
“[Chuckle] The thought actually crossed my mind, when I was in FCW [WWE’s developmental],” Jordan said. “We threw out a lot of different character ideas, and for me, being there for so long, you have to throw a lot of things against the wall. That was something that definitely ran through my mind at some point.”
Lucha Underground’s Ratings
