Best/Worst

Recommended Posts

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.

"Manster" was definitely the worst, although "Booger Red" is up there as well.

I always dug Man Beast for Rhino in ECW.

 

Worst...

 

White Thunder for Scott Steiner

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.

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.

"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.

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.

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?

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.

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.

"The Big Valbowski" always seemed pretty lame to me.

 

Wasn't that his actual name for a while? I was all over that one at first too.

 

Cyrus' "Ayatollah of Rock and Bowla" was so bad it was good.

I know what it meant.

 

I just think it sounded stupid.
