Sean Michael Waltman, better known by his ring as X-Pac, is an American professional wrestler who was born on July 13, 1972. He is most remembered for his appearances as 1–2–3 Kid and X-Pac for the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now WWE), Syxx for World Championship Wrestling (WCW), and Syxx-Pac and Sean Waltman for NWA Total Nonstop Action (NWA-TNA).
X-Pac debuted in the WWF in 1993, where he worked as an enhancement wrestler under several names until he was dubbed the 1-2-3 Kid following an upset victory over Razor Ramon on Raw. He twice held the WWF Tag Team Championship as 1-2-3 Kid, and in July 1994, he challenged Bret Hart for the WWF World Heavyweight Championship in what WWE considered the third-best bout ever shown on Raw. He was a member of The Kliq at the time, a backstage gang infamous for influencing WWF storylines in the 1990s.
During the Monday Night Wars, Waltman departed the WWF in 1996 to create Syxx with Kliq members Kevin Nash and Scott Hall (previously known as Razor Ramon) in WCW, winning the WCW World Tag Team Championship and becoming a one-time WCW Cruiserweight Champion as part of the New World Order (NWO). After being released from WCW in 1998, he returned to the WWF during the Attitude Era, where he was re-branded as D-Generation X (DX) member X-Pac and twice held the WWF Light Heavyweight Championship and the WWF European Championship, as well as two more times holding the WWF Tag Team Championship with Kane.

X-Pac in WWE
X-Pac’s WWF audition match as The Lightning Kid took place the day after WrestleMania IX in Phoenix, Arizona, against fellow hopeful Louie Spicolli. He made his television debut as “The Kamikaze Kid” on Monday Night Raw on May 3, losing to Doink the Clown after signing a contract.
He was instantly dubbed “The Cannonball Kid,” then “The Kid.” On the May 17 broadcast of Monday Night Raw, he defeated Razor Ramon in an unexpected pinfall, earning him the moniker “The 1–2–3 Kid.”
The night after WrestleMania XIV and days after his departure from WCW, Waltman returned to WWF television on the March 30, 1998 broadcast of Monday Night Raw. Triple H was now the leader of D-Generation X. As a result, Pac was chosen as the newest member.
X-Pac began a feud with Chris Jericho in September 2000, with Jericho defeating X-Pac at Unforgiven 2000 and subsequently in a cage match at No Mercy 2000. X-Pac was injured in the neck during the feud when Jericho hit him with a powerbomb, putting him out for three months.
Waltman briefly feuded with Chris Jericho for the WWF Intercontinental Championship after recovering from a neck injury in February 2001, culminating in a fatal four-way match, which Jericho won to retain the championship.
Waltman wrestled in his last WWE bout, a ten-man tag match, on Raw on July 8, 2002. Nash tore his quadriceps in this bout, and Vince McMahon terminated the nWo angle a week later when Nash tore his quads. WWE and Waltman have split ways, according to Raw announcer Jim Ross, who confirmed the news during SummerSlam.

The precise answer is no as still he works under many independent circuits.
