Simon Dean signed with the WWE in 2002 and was assigned to its then-developmental territory, OVW. His run back there saw him wrestle the likes of The Prototype, Christian and Lance Cade. He was called-up to the main roster in 2004 becoming a part of the SmackDown brand. Simon wrestled majorly on the blue brand and its sister show, Velocity.
The former fitness expert had a two-year run in WWE and briefly served as the OVW talent development manager before parting ways in 2007. He then went to wrestle on the independent circuit for the majority of his career.
Dean recently wrestled his last professional wrestling match recently. The announcement was made by Matt Cardona on his Instagram, who was a part of the match.
Hopefully, Simon can be content with his pro wrestling career, because he certainly accomplished a lot more than most.
