We could go as far back as the middle of the 1900s when Gorgeous George would walk to the ring and use his aerosol perfume because the fans at ringside smelled, and had to be disinfected because of how disgusting they were. These characters operate in the deep end of the pool and push the boundaries between being confident and managing to grate the gears of those they are in the ring with. Marc : In wrestling, there is a particular type of character that does more than just wrestle. Topic #1: Who were some of the most flamboyant wrestling characters in history? Speaking of taking bumps, let’s do our best now at taking some swings (with our metal canes of course) at why these two parts of wrestling’s past worked years ago, why they aren’t utilized today, and if we will see them become relevant again. Lord knows I would want to disappear if I got hit as often as one of the Hebner brothers. Maybe it was all of the bumps they took back in the day that caught up with the men in stripes. In our next topic, we attempt to tackle (we’ll do our best with bad backs and knees) an area of the business that is very near and dear to me what happened to the role of referees? Seems like they are a dying breed. Is it political correctness, lazy booking, lack of talent who can pull the gimmick off, or just not wanting to rehash something from the past? I mean where are the Exotic Adrian Street’s of the world? Why though? It seemed like it was a pretty effective gimmick back in the day. They popped up quite frequently from the 1950’s into the early 1990’s and then, poof, they seemed to vanish. This month we dust off the scrapbook while Marc and I reflect on two more things from yesteryear that have seemed to disappear, other than our hairlines.įirst, we will look at flamboyant wrestlers.

Those are just a few of the best Black wrestlers of the ‘90s, and there are plenty more.Hank McAllen: Welcome back friends to another edition of Grumpy Old Men of Wrestling with Marc and Hank! I hope you young whipper snappers enjoyed our first venture into moaning and groaning about things we miss in today’s presentation of professional wrestling, oops I mean sports entertainment. My favorite period will always be the ‘90s, though. He also had a good run in the 2000s, and changed his persona to the World’s Largest Love Machine. Viscera feuded with Mark Henry for a little while after he body splashed Henry’s 80-year-old pregnant girlfriend, Mae Young ( don’t ask). This was a whole new persona for Frazier, with spooky vampire eyes and everything. I love the Mabel era where he played a face, but I much preferred his heel era, when he came back in ’99 as the Ministry of Darkness’ tough guy, Viscera. Country” match against Jeff Jarrett at Summerslam, where Jeff Jarrett won. My favorite moment with Viscera (then going as Mabel) was his “Rap vs. for short, with a rap promo that is ‘90s AF. He made his debut in the WWE as one half of Men on a Mission (Or M.O.M. Last, but not least, is Big Daddy V (Nelson Frazier Jr), better known to fans as Viscera (R.I.P.). So, whether you’re still watching the WWE or moved over to watching AEW, wrestling would not be in the place that it is now without the Black wrestlers on this very list. It was in this explosive period that Black wrestlers played a pivotal role in shaping wrestling to be the powerhouse that it is now. The WWE’s Attitude Era officially kickstarted in 1997, but this was in direct response to other budding promotions like ECW, and, to a certain extent, the infamous heel turn of Hulk Hogan in WCW. The decade of Bill Clinton and AOL was a particularly interesting period for wrestling. So, that’s what I want to talk about today. Even though New Jack was never in the WWE or WCW, he was definitely one of the best Black wrestlers of the ‘90s, no doubt. But, he represents a long (though, not as long as I would like) list of Black wrestlers who have put their bodies on the line to provide hours of entertainment for wrestling fans around the world. You may have heard of New Jack from Vice TV’s Dark Side of the Ring series.

That’s when extreme, hardcore wrestler, New Jack of ECW fame, passed away.
