John Goodman. Unironically.
>early years
Respected, not pushed, rassler trying to build something in temrs of legacy to take the next step
>Shockmaster
Get a chance at a life changing ppv with the likes of Sting and Flair. Botch the biggest moment of your career to this point, and have no choice but to own it
>after effect
Slow, spiralling downfall into alcohol and depression and working shit jobs like high school lunch food delivery guy until death/Redemption
I vote Goodman.

>Grown human beings with jobs thought this was a good idea
Even if the bit went exactly as planned it would still be a failure.
What's a scary idea for a new character?
I know let's cover a stromtropper helmet in glitter
>I told you so
What did Flair mean by this?
Honestly, if anything, this is the best thing that could have happened. People still talk about it almost 30 years after the fact.
He fell on his fookin' arse
What’s the context behind this lmao
cocaine
They wanted to create a new popular wrestler to join 2 already popular, so they spray painted a storm trooper mask with glitter paint and put it on a retired wrestler, tell him to jump through a wall, and then have another retired wrestler backstage say his lines through a microphone
It must have been set up from the very beginning. Even without the botch how in the everloving fuck would they expect a character like that to appeal to anyone?
>Americans think this is real
My German grandma thought it was real and for some reason her favorite wrestler was the Iron Shiek
Putting aside the botched entrance why does early 90s wrestling look like something Rob Liefeld drew?
I don’t get why they thought that a fat dude with a stormtropper helmet would be a cool wrestler
The probably thought the glitter would help
>who is this mothafucka
every time
Idris Elba
The ironic part is Sid looks the worse by keeping kayfabe
because 90s wrestling was, absolutely, 100% based.
If it all went to plan it wouldve been one of many forgotten wrestlers over the years. Some trivia joke question "did you know wwf once tried to put a fat guy in a bedazzled stormtrooper helmet?"
Ironically the guy fucking up and tripping over is probably the best thing that couldve happened to him because now even random Yas Forums threads where wrestling isnt talked about much talk about shockmaster
>he fell roight on he's fockin ARSE!
That might be my favorite line.
Gwendolyn Christie
its amazing. Everyone has just witnessed the blunder of the century. but Sid is acting like Goku after Frieza said he was only using 1% of his power
The steroids probably helped
unironically one of the funniest moments in wrestling history
>using a helmet from a litigious film franchise
What was their end game?
