[NJBillsFan]

Mr. Socko was funny, even though it was stupid as hell.
Doink the Clown
1-2-3 Kid (just an awful name)
Prince Albert

and when they did all those gangs (Nation of Domination vs. Disiples of Apocalypse vs. ??? that cuban one)

and last but not least....Tugboat (toot toot)

[RaidersFan]

The Goon Yeah that was the worst.
How about Skinner.He was like an alligator wrestler or something.

[Diesel83]

The Red Rooster, Xanta Klaus, Danny Davis (the evil ref), Outback Jack (he was so bad, the other wrestlers used to call him Outhouse Jack lol), MVP the baseball player, The Renegade (cheap Warrior impersonator) and The ShockMaster.

[whkfc]

The roadie was bad.

[Diesel83]

I just remembered some more.

Isaac Yankem DDS (now known as Kane, this gimmick was so bad, this is probably the reason he wears a mask lol), New Diesel (also Kane), Lief Cassidy, Mike Awesome's that 70s guy, Men On A Mission (made me embarrassed to be a rap fan).

Gillberg to me would have to be the funniest, I love his entrance, with the sparklers.

BTW, here he is, Santa's evil brother from the southpole, Xanta (later known as Balls Mahoney)

[RaidersFan]

wow that last one has to be the worst thing i have ever heard.

[Diesel83]

Here is the story of Xanta Klaus (http://www.personal.psu.edu/users/z/z/zzl102/xanta.htm)

The pics and links don't work, but it's a funny read.

[SABURZFAN]

anybody remember The Repo Man???

[whkfc]

How about Justin Credible as Aldo Montoya Portugese Man o War.

[NJBillsFan]

anyone remember Bastion Booger. the man repulsed me

[BLeonard]

This category is gonna rule for me... BTW, just in case you didn't know:

Leif Cassidy is Al Snow
Repo Man was known as Demolition Smash

The Cuban Gang NJ referred to was called "Los Boricuas"

Now for a list of some of my bad memories:

Saba Simba
The Gobbelygooker
Techno Team 2000
Well Dunn
Max Moon
Bertha Faye
Chainsaw Charlie
Brakus (Who lasted about a week)
The Red Rooster

I'm sure there are more, but that's a short list

The thing most of those manes have in common is that they mostly came in the early to mid 90's. That was the gimmick era. That's all you needed to be a wrestler. So they basically went through every gimmick imaginable. SOme other memerable ones are:

Nails
Berzerkur
Luger as the Narcisist
Papa Shango

[MiamiMasterpiece]

OMG i absolutely loved Gillberg. That was hillarious. I also like the midgets that they bring in from time to time. When Edge and Christian had Hardy Midgets and Dudley Midgets, then the Rock with the Booker T Midget.......BOOKER WEE.

[whkfc]

Steve Austin as the Ringmaster right before he became Stone Cold.

[whkfc]

Just had 2 good ones Hillbilly Jim and The Godwins all the hick hog farmers.

[RaidersFan]

how about Sexual Chocolate

LMAO, one of the stupidest things ever was when Mae Young got pregnant and she went into labor and had a hand. I thought that was dumb.

[RaidersFan]

i know what was that. She had a hand. That was just stupid

[Psychosis]

konnan's k-dawg gimmick. That guy annoyed me.

[Hurls]

necrophilia was pretty stupid

[blunted]

I liked when Edge and Christian came out as Los Conquestedors. That was funny. Typhoon the sailor was pretty bad.

I am a big fan of Sean O'Haire's new character......kind of similar to the Devil's advocate. Anyone who tells me to drink is cool with me.

Uhhhh Si Senor.........DOS!

[whkfc]

What about Lo-Down with D-lo Brown and Chaz fron the Head Bangers with Tiger Ali Sign as the manager their outfits were awful.

[PUCKER]

I liked Konnan as K-Dawg. I didnt like Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboats second gimmick when he returned wearing a dragon costume and blowing fire. Hes a great wrestler,but I think Vinny Mac made a fool out of him with that poor gimmick. Why couldnt he just bring him back the way he was?

[FrankieA]

Hillbilly Jim

[BillsfaninVirginia]

Although it was not much of a gimmick, when they had Stone Cold sucking up to Vince, playing the folk guitar and wearing that stupid little cowboy hat.

While I liked the Undertaker, Paul Bearer, was too annoying for me.

[PUCKER]

How about Brother Love? That gus voice..UGH! :zzz:

I liked that Austin gimmick. it was funny. they really did have some dumb gimmicks with paul bearer and the urn over the years.

[NJBillsFan]

the REAL JJ, Jeff Jarrett. before he became the road dog.

[thegame]

^ Thats J - E, double F, J - A, double R - E, double T.

I still love Jeff Jarrett. He's really doing some good things down in NWA, I hope they catch a TV deal soon.

Speaking of Chaz, let's not forget when he was Beaver Cleavage.

I think we have a winner that gimmick was so bad that they had to make an angle out of it where the gimmick was so bad that he just couldnt go thru with it anymore.

i was wondering if that was real or fake. the way someone off camera said "Chaz, where live chaz!!" and then it all of a sudden went to commercial. i just sat there for a sec and wondered if that really happened, or they made it up to make it look like he quit.

Anybody else remember "The Ding Dongs" in WCW?
The tag team, not management.

[SABURZFAN]

when Typhoon left the WWF to go to the WCW.he became this blue-collared,hard working American known as Uncle Fred.i don't recall the parties involved but Uncle Fred was in a tag team match and he got the tag to enter the ring and he tripped over the rope and fell into the ring.the only thing i do remember was jesse ventura doing the commentating and he yells out,"HE FELL!!!!"after a couple of matches where his character was suppose to be a buffoon and trip over the ring ropes,he was released from WCW.

[Psychosis]

The wwe once had a character who referred to himself as "Who?". Some guy in yellow tights and a mask. Really pointless.

[whkfc]

The Honkey Tonk Man.

[whkfc]

Kahmala the Afican warrior.

[PUCKER]

Kamala is awesome! Slap your belly! *LOL*!

[RaidersFan]

his mask was crazy. That thing was huge.

[whkfc]

what about Marc Mero in WCW when he was called Johnny B. Badd. He looked like a huge Flamer.

[Psychosis]

lol he looked like little richard

[RaidersFan]

he did look like Little Richard.
