10 Times Wrestlers Hit Their Finisher In A TV Show

10. King Kong Bundy - Married... With Children

King Kong Bundy’s ties to eighties/nineties cringefest Married... With Children run deeper than the two guest appearances he booked on the show: it’s a little known fact that the show’s Bundy family were actually named after the late Christopher Pallies’ wrestling monicker.

This led to him being cast to play Bundy matriarch Peg’s brother Irwin in season two’s ‘All In The Family’. He’d just left the WWF, intending to retire from wrestling, so it’s understandable that the show didn’t cash in on his notoriety as one of the sport’s best ever big men.

The same wasn’t true of his 1995 cameo in Married… With Children, in season ten’s ‘Flight Of The Bumblebee’, where, once again under contract with the WWF, Bundy appeared as himself in a wrestling context.

In the episode, forced to pose as a wrestler to get Bundy’s autograph as the initiation test to enter some sleazy men’s club his awful father had formed, Bud ‘Bumblebee’ Bundy receives an in-ring big splash courtesy of one of the best monster heels in the business.

It's Married... With Children, so of course it's hopelessly, gleefully rubbish - but Bundy would be good value on anything.
