Bizarre wrestling characters you liked

[Skyefire]

What are some bizarre wrestling characters, ones that didn't last or get over and are laughed, that you liked when they were around?

I was a fan of Battle Kat, Max Moon, Avatar, and Techno Team 2000.

Mortis is the biggest missed opportunity in wrestling history.

Coulda been as big as Kane, while being twice as good of a worker and at least half as transphobic. And that's not even counting the hype when final form purple mortis would be unveiled later

I've never seen someone admit to liking the Ding Dongs

Whereas my pick has to be Johnny B. Badd. Always. WWF Marc Mero felt wrong because he wasn't covered in feather boas shooting a glitter gun into the crowd

This is also a good shout, because Kanyon was great and the character worked for him

Johnny B Badd was great just ran it's course in WCW I think, he probs would have needed a gimmick change even if he stayed

I also had a bootleg VHS of 97 uncensored that i randomly found (crazy the one titled UNCENSORED was a porn VHS) probs around 2001 or so that I watched all the time and that Mortis entrance bruh

the fact he got so much traction out of a Little Richard cosplay is nuts to begin with

And you got your first taste of James Mitchell around that time because that was his national TV debut

Also like he was funny, but it was pretty trash booking and segments around him at first too but he ended up just making it work

Wait I don't even remember this lol probably bc I didn't know who he was until after I no longer had a VCR to watch the tape

 

[JakeYourBooty]

if you think about when his heyday was and when Mero did that gimmick it'd be like someone doing Vanilla Ice today

Hey not quite as long but that did work for Cena 20 years out of Ice's relevancy lol
