WWE

Adam Bomb was an inherently silly idea during an inherently silly time, but at least the attire he adorned when emerging from Three Mile Island in 1993 had iconography related to his bananas backstory.

This early sketch appears to have him in mind for a reboot of Demolition - despite it being years since the gimmick was around and even longer before he'd team with Crush to form KroniK in WCW.
