Sports Illustrated stole my thunder

Show some love.

While talking to someone on AIM, we came up with wrestlers who had ridiculous gimmicks. Ridiculous as in “Haha, funny” not ridiculous as in “I hate this gimmick”. Well, coming up with a short list last night, I get an AIM message with a to SI’s most ridiculous WWF gimmicks.

My list of ridiculous gimmicks in the WWF would be:

1. Repo Man. – Repo man that took your stuff if you lost to him.

2. The Mountie – Greatest Canadian wrestler ever. Lance Storm, Chris Jericho, Bret Hart and even Edge ain’t got nothing on The Mountie.

3. Koko B. Ware – He came out with his parrot. And tried to wrestle. He really tried.

4. Hillbilly Jim – Watching old WWF tapes, I love it when he comes out.

5. Papa Shango – Anyone who can make the Ultimate Warrior more than a joke than he already is is my new found hero.

SI’s Jimmy Traina used two of my five.

Here be a screenshot of his list.
