Probably because he only lasted a month or two. He lasted about as long as the original MVP (Most Violent Player) aka Abe "Knuckleball" Swartz.

I sort of miss the ridiculous gimmicks of the mid 90s.

I watch bits and pieces here and there when I get a chance. I saw the end tonight but was mad because I tuned in hoping to see the Danielson/Cole showdown.

McMahon sounds like a Montreal fan in that clip. "HEY SLASHING! Give me a break!" "HIGHSTICKING!!!"

I always tell my friends that wrestling was so much better when the wrestlers had other occupations. Accountant, cop, garbage man, barber, sports figure. It doesnt get much better than that. He was thrown out of every hockey league he was even in so he went to the one place that would have him, the WWF.

What are they doing wtih Daniel Bryan or Bryan Danielson...whatever he's called now. I'm assuming they're keeping him in WWE, although he was "eliminated".

yeah I have to believe they have a plan for daniel bryan to still keep him around and have announcers and wrestlers keep mentioning that he isn't good enough. If I heard correctly, he's bren an independent wrestler for 12 years so he isn't new to the biz. What's the deal with nxt anyway? Is the voting real or do they have this set up all along? If it's real and we really will only see one of these guys win a roster spot, I think they should just bring back Tough Enough and do it that way

Steve Lombardi had all the good gimmicks.

Himself, The Brooklyn Brawler, Kamala's handler, Doink, Abe Schwartz.

I love the ultimate warrior because he acted like such an idiot. He was so terrible at promos it wasn't even funny, until about 15 years later lol. However, in the second video, his steroid arms are ridiculous.

I went to a lecture the Warrior had at my college when I was in school. He scared the hell out of me. At one point, he berated the president of the young republicans for not knowing the second amendment by heart. When the first question in the Q&A was, "What was your favorite WWF moment?" I thought he was going to gorilla press the poor kid.
