   I actually saw the Ding Dongs wrestle at a TV taping in Columbia, SC. I always had this dream during David Arquette’s “world title reign” that a young Harley Race would do a run in and beat him within an inch of his life and then go after Vince Russo…

   And The Shockmaster may be the best moment in pro wrestling history. The cheap spray painted storm trooper helmet would have been a pitiful gimmick even if Fred Ottman aka Tugboat aka Typhoon hadn’t tripped through the WCW set.

   Of course trying to come up with a definitive list of the ‘worst wrestling gimmicks’ is like peeling an onion…all you do is uncover more and more layers

   I’d also have to include one of the Road Warriors later WWF runs where they *finally* brought in their longtime manager “Precious” Paul Ellering–and gave him a freaking ventriloquist dummy!

   Here’s a weird trivia note–Ellering is now a serious dog trainer and has run the Iditarod Sled Race in Alaska several times..
