This makes him one of the most unique minds ever to compete in the wrestling industry.<\/div>\n<div><br class=\"yoast-text-mark\" \/>Levy was so skilled at producing wrestling matches that he was offered a job at just 20 years of age with WWE. But, seeing himself as an artist, he looked to create a character and perform himself.<\/div>\n<div><br class=\"yoast-text-mark\" \/>Originally a mullet-sporting, pretty boy heel in the early 90s with WCW, he pivoted to his Edgar Allan Poe-inspired grunge, eloquent narcissist act, Raven.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>This unique gimmick, along with his highly personal and brutal matches with Tommy Dreamer and The Sandman, put him on the map and earned him the ECW Heavyweight Championship.
