I could not mention Val Venis without including The Godfather. If Val Venis was meant to make women swoon, The Godfather and his Ho Train were a gift to all male fans from the ages of 8 to 80. Slick was only implied to be a pimp, while The Godfather made it clear. Godfather dressed as if he had direct access to Bishop Don Juans closet. He would come to the ring with at least five hookers, and offer them to his opponent as a peace treaty. Looking back now, it was pretty ingenious. Sometimes his foe would accept the offer, other times The Godfather would lay them out with The Pimp Drop. The Godfather was the epitome of an attitude era gimmick that is NEVER coming back, no matter how much we enjoyed it. I dont see Linda McMahon signing off on anything resembling what The Godfather brought to the table.
