Everyone loves a comeback story. From the late Steve Jobs being fired from Apple the company he started and then returned and then launching iconic products like the iPhone to basketball GOAT Michael Jordan coming out of retirement to lead the Chicago Bulls to championship glory not once but three times.

 

There is something magical, inspirational, and remarkable about any underdog coming from behind to knock down Goliath and become an icon.
