| Favorite "unknown" wrestler. Posted: 5/24/2006 3:57:54 PM | Here's a chance to throw some props out to wrestlers that not everyone may have heard of. Independants are fine. Old school guys that maybe didn't get as much attention on a national stage are fine as well. I'll start this off with one of my all-time favorites.
Jason the Terrible used to wrestle in Stampede Wrestling back in the '80s. He was a huge guy that never spoke and came to the ring dressed in a torn white outfit from an insane asylum and wore a hockey mask a la Jason from Friday the 13th. Kane's gimmick when he first came in was basically a rip-off of Jason. | |

| Favorite unknown wrestler. Posted: 5/24/2006 4:14:02 PM | | Oh man...I remember Barry Horowitz. He was the innovator of the self high-five before DDP made it famour. He was the resident jobber along with the Brooklyn Brawler. Do you remember Iron Mike Sharp? Another classic jobber. | |

| Favorite unknown wrestler. Posted: 5/24/2006 10:07:11 PM | going a little old school
Dominic Denucci Johnny Rodz- classic jobber SD Jones- another classic jobber Victor Rivera Tony Garea
another guy that was well known but is hardly ever talked about is Mil Mascaras, I used to love it when he would make a rare appearance on WWWF television, I think because he was so much different than anyone that WWWF had at the time. | |

| Favorite unknown wrestler. Posted: 5/24/2006 11:50:09 PM | I personally liked Justin Credible....he wasnt around long...but him, X-Pac and Albert... X-Factor was kick ass...the whole..what...month or two they were around... | |
|
| Favorite unknown wrestler. Posted: 5/25/2006 7:29:17 AM | | Justin Credible and Lance Storm are reforming the "impact players" for a 1PW tag team tournament in the UK. It'd be cool to see them as part of the new ECW but Storm has said he wont return to full time wrestling. | |

| Favorite unknown wrestler. Posted: 5/25/2006 9:36:49 AM | First off, Barry Harrowitz did not do the self high five...he gave himself a pat on the back. Also didn't he get a win over HHH? Or was that the Brooklyn Brawler? | |
|
| Favorite unknown wrestler. Posted: 5/25/2006 4:29:09 PM | Barry Horowitz & the sumerslam event ha ha classic.
I would have said Paul Birchill from the UK indies but he's been discovered. Man that fella has the best heel mean streak you will ever see. It needs exploiting.
Teddy heart & harry Smith I guess will come into this category soon.
(ps yes I do remember "Iron" Mike sharpe, the most over the top shouting sell of all time) | |
