Anyone remember when Harvard debuted in the WWE and when he left(Due I believe to a career ending leg injury)

I remember he had to be Chris Nowinski or Harvard would have sued them. And he was just about to get Molly's virginity when he retired.

I think they did call him Chris Harvard at first for a short while, but went with Nowinski after a while.

He debuted on tv on Raw in June of 2002 I believe. I know he debuted by running out and helping William Regal. Then he beat Spike Dudley in his debut match the following week.
I think he left in late June or early July of 2003. The last things I can remember him doing were the team with Rodney Mack with Teddy Long managing them and their feud with the Dudleyz, with Nowinski doing the broken nose/facemask angle. He dissapeared for good shortly after that.
And it wasnt a leg injury, it was due to a series of severe concussions that he could never really recover from. The first of which I believe came on a botched spot by Edge and Rey Mysterio in the 2003 Royal Rumble match, which looked pretty brutal.

and his injury was a severe concussion coupled with post-concussion syndrome. Since then, he has made some big strides on the health of wrestlers who suffer concussions(he was the one who suggested they do a postmortem brain scan of Benoit, thus proving the brain damage.)

Chris Nowinski could be the wrestling industry's best friend if they would only listen to him.

He was such a douchebag in Tough Enough. I remember when Maven won and they cheered Maven like crazy, then they interviewed Josh Matthews and they cheered him like crazy, then they interviewed Chris Harvard and he got the poop booed outta him.

yeah, the guy had loads of potential, but due to injuries he never really fulfilled them, and his concussions still screw him up to this day (insomnia, short term memory loss, etc.), but he is working hard to try and clean up the business. if people would start listening to him, he could help wrestling as a whole no end.
