CanadianGuitarist 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2006 I don't mean gimmicks. I mean actual nicknames, like one of my choices for best "Excellence of Execution". Push to Mabel notwithstanding, anyone remember when Mo from Men on a Mission became Sir Mo? Terrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Fook Report post Posted May 22, 2006 "Manster" was definitely the worst, although "Booger Red" is up there as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MillenniumMan831 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2006 I actually dug "The One" nickname. Why the fuck is Billy Gunn going over Chris Benoit? Cause he's The One. How is Billy Gunn still alive in the Rumble this year? Cause he's The One. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RepoMan 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2006 Was Ass Man Gunn's nickname or does it count as a gimmic? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2006 He was nicknamed "Mr. Ass" for a while. I actually liked when he was called "The One" Billy Gunn because at least that name didn't have the word "Ass" in it, so you didn't have to be embarassed when he came on TV. "Booger Red" was a stupid nickname for Undertaker, but that was really just a Jim Ross-ism. No one else referred to him as that. "The Big Valbowski" always seemed pretty lame to me. I don't like some of TNA's current ones, like "The Playa from the Himalaya", especially. Also, I don't think "The Samoan Bulldozer" quite works for Umaga.

benoit4hor 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2006 "big sexy the giant killer" Kevin Nash, was a little much. and almost all of Scott Steiners "big poppa pump" "big bad booty daddy" "white thunder" One of the best is probably "the enforcer" Arn Anderson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheInsane 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2006 On the bad side of thing I agree on "big bad booty daddy". Is someone supposed to take that seriously. It sounds stupid. Also Hardcore Holly as "The Alabama Slamma" was really bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TheGreatWesuke Report post Posted May 23, 2006 What the heck IS a "Nature Boy" anyway? I've always assumed it was taken from the song "Nature Boy"... I've heard Frank Sinatra sing it, but it might date back even further than that. Anyone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Just John 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2006 I can't believe I forgot Alabama Slamma. I was ragging on that name for the entire 3 weeks they tried to get it over. I always thought "human suplex machine" was kinda lame too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quasar 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2006 When I look back at it, "Stone Cold" is really, really, really lame. Actually, Stone Cold was very fitting to Steve's gimmick of a man with a stone cold heart, a man that'll kick your ass and not care. He was cold and calculated, just as the name suggests.

MillenniumMan831 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2006 After Gunn's KotR win in 1999, King Ass had the potential to be kinda catchy (in my humble opinion of course) but they never ran w/ that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
