Thought this was retarded, so I thought I would share it here as well. Kidd Bandit killed off his gay vampire larp character he was doing, and this oscar-winning performance is how he did it.

Yeah, it was a poorly phrased joke.

Honestly, talking as someone who was a fan of him before all that other shit came out, his overall contributions (ignoring the murder/suicide) are probably a net negative.

The guy idolized Dynamite Billington, who actually was a physical and technical artist despite being a manlet and who happened to be an abusive piece of shit, too.

Sid not being in the kayfabe hall is the one that rankles me the most and has for at least a couple of years now, tbh. I don't even really know why. But he deserved it while he was still on this Earth and it's bullshit that someone like Stephanie McMahon fucking gets in before him. I try not to let it bother me because at the end of the day it's an even bigger joke than the baseball hall and they make up rules on the fly to boot, but whatever.

The fact that Undertaker's wife is in there completely invalidates anything the hall of fame will ever do. Nothing McCool did ever justifies her being in there.

Isn't Violent J's daughter a furry who got knocked up by one of his opening acts? That's more entertaining than anything they've put out since Milenko.

You're combining two stories. His daughter is an autistic furry. His niece got knocked up at 18 by a guy in his 30s he recently signed and then immediately jumped ship to Twiztid's competing record label.

Oh, I'm well aware.

Billington was a piece of shit and he did sort of pave the way for the vanilla midget types.

What's kinda lost in all of that, though, that guys like Ospreay or whoever else are throwing Five Star Bangerz while giving each other brain damage, is that Billington still had a gimmick and was a bit of a novelty as part of the British Bulldogs. Watching older stuff makes me appreciate that you need both, and a lot of the stuff I liked with Benoit usually involved guys like Jericho, Angle, Eddie, etc. In other words, personalities they could bounce off of.

I like how time has rehabilitated people's opinions on Sid. I can't count how many lists he popped up on for "most overrated wrestlers" because he was lumbering and didn't work king's road style barn burners. There are some wrestlers that don't need to do much to draw attention because they just have an aura that naturally attracts eyes. Sid Absolutely had that aura in spades. The man looked like the second-in-command of the main villain in a gritty cult classic action flick from the 70s.

That's the face of a man that's one wrong word from breaking you in half. He need more wrestlers with that aura of danger.

The fact that a dude as scary as Sid was legit frightened of Pat Patterson and wouldn't be alone in the same room as him says a lot about the kind of person Pat Patterson was. And yet fuckwits like Corny still continue to protect him.

She was in WWE the same time as one of Gail Kim's runs. I remember Gail Kim being there, I swear to God I don't remember Michelle McCool at all in that era.

Cornette is a disgusting piece of shit with TDS yet he will move mountains to protect the wrestlers that he deems "his boys", whether they be racists, women abusers, pedophiles, or sex pests.

AEW extended Theklas contract so I'm guessing she's going to be the face of the women's division now that Toni is gone for a while and Mercedes deal might be ending soon.

Could be worse, Brit Baker might reappear to sandbag a whole new crop of talent.

I recall before Dark Side Of The Ring, Corny said in a shoot that Ludvig Borga while he didn't know much, said he was a quiet, reserved guy that was nice to him. I guess that was before he read into him and the tattoo.

McCool was one of the numerous generic "blond underwear model that can barely run the ropes" that was knocking around at the time.

They'd teach them 2 or 3 moves and other than that they just stood there looking pretty.
 
Michelle McCool was another "good for her time" women's wrestlers. Going back and watching her matches, she was better than I remember but still nothing special compared to what we had seen overseas or in the modern era. Also for what it's worth, Laycool was actually a decent act (despite it feeling like a PG Beautiful People)

I even looked it up and Michelle McCool actually had matches with Gail Kim.
I CANNOT REMEMBER MICHELLE MCCOOL AT ALL, and I was a Gail Kim mark. That's how little of an impact that Michelle McCool made on the business. Let's put her in the Hall of Fame anyway though because of her gay ass husband.
