10 Weirdest Ways Wrestlers Got Hired By WWE
10. He Could Puke On Command!
Did someone say sick? Or...puke?!
Darren Drozdov sadly passed away recently, but he's remembered for his stint in the then-WWF as Droz in the late-1990s. The dude earned some fame for spewing on the ball during an NFL game a few years before entering the wacky world of pro wrestling, and Vince McMahon was intrigued.
In short, he loved the idea that Droz could vomit whenever he damn well pleased. The fed boss was tickled by this, and smelled money. Or, more accurately, he smelled puke. A memorable scene from 'Beyond The Mat' showed Drozdov attempting to vom on command during an early meeting at WWF HQ.
That's really the full story. Droz was signed because he'd gained some attention for hurling everywhere whenever he liked, and the WWF planned to make that part of his act on TV. Yes, yes that is so 'Attitude Era' it almost hurts - probably not as badly as Daz's stomach did after all that forced puking though.
