Shane Helms is the creator of this superhero mask that has become a fan favorite. He was the winner of the WWE Hardcore Championship as well as the WWE Tag Team Championship. He wrestled under the ring name “The Hurricane” for a time, but he abandoned the superhero persona in 2005. He holds the record for the longest reign in SmackDown history. Due to neck fusion surgery, he was unable to work for more than a year and a half. After being dismissed by WWE in February 2010, Helms returned to the company as a surprise entrant in the WWE Royal Rumble event in 2018.
