10 Things We Learned From Dark Side Of The Ring: Bam Bam Bigelow
10. His Wild Bounty Hunter Days
OK, so this is all absolutely mental.
There's a bit of dubiety about some of Bigelow's stories, but most talking heads on the show agreed on this one. Bam Bam saw an advert for a bounty hunting gig when he was just 19 years old, and decided to take the plunge. Things went badly when he and a friend went to Mexico to rescue a little girl who'd been kidnapped though.
His friend was shot in the neck and died, then Bigelow ended up in a Mexican prison for six months before befriending the judge. They couldn't keep him under lock and key anyway - the clay walls of his cell were so thin that Bammer just ran straight through them. Pardon, what?! The fun didn't stop there.
As if that wasn't enough, the judge let Bigelow out of prison early because he'd stopped others from rioting in court (in effect acting as protection for the judge). Honestly, this all sounds like the origin story of a Batman villain more than a pro wrestler's teenage life.
