8 WWE Managers You Totally Don't Remember

8. Clarence Mason

Clarence Mason was a lawyer character based on Johnnie Cochran, but named after Clarence Darrow and Perry Mason, because even in the mid-'90s, WWF was super-hip and up-to-date with their pop culture references.

He was Jim Cornette's legal counsel, who often interceded on behalf of Camp Cornette to get match results overturned or thrown out.

Mason's biggest run with WWF coincided with the creation of The Nation of Domination, as he "represented" Faarooq at the time. They were accompanied to the ring by three nameless associates, and later joined by Crush, D'Lo Brown, and Savio Vega.

Mason disappeared from television when Faarooq fired everyone from The Nation except D'Lo, setting the stage not only for the horrendous gang wars era of WWF TV, but Rocky Maivia's rise to prominence.

At least Mason had an actual law career to fall back on.
