10 Times Wrestling Was Electrifying

10. Electric Performers

The Rock always touted himself as the most electrifying man in sports entertainment. Although some remember him as the Brahma Bull, the Great One, or the People's Champ, his megawatt mantra is by far his most famous. His catchphrase is so well-known that there's even an article by an energy company trying to calculate how much electricity the Rock could produce.

But The Great One wasn't the first performer to talk about his AC/DC attitude. No, the manic - and that's putting it mildly - promoter of the UWF, Herb Abrams, dubbed himself "Mr. Electricity" in the 1990s and pioneered the heel promoter gimmick years before Eric Bischoff or Vince McMahon. (Although his fuel was likely chemical, not electrical.)

This is the only time in history Herb Abrams and Dwayne Johnson have ever been referenced together.
