10 Forgotten WCW Wrestlers You Totally Don't Remember
1. Johnny Attitude
On the surface, Johnny Attitude sounds like WCW trying to belittle the WWF's 'Attitude' movement in the late-90s, but it wasn't. In fact, Johnny here started using that kayfabe'd surname in 1996, which was a good while before Vince McMahon was smugly encouraging you to, "Get it?" on federation screens.
Attitude resembled a discount Mr. T at first. He'd keep that look for all of his matches on Saturday Night, WorldWide and Pro heading into 1998. Then, someone on the creative team had a bright idea: Johnny would shave his head and start rocking a decidedly Goldberg-esque aesthetic in time for a US Title challenge vs. the man himself on the 25 May '98 Nitro.
That was Attitude's first and final Nitro bout, and also his biggest in the promotion overall.
WCW had a few of these cheesy-named workers in the late-90s. Remember Kenny Kaos? How about Bobby Blaze? It was create-a-wrestler heaven in that locker room, for goodness sake. Johnny Attitude stuck around a little while longer and worked several Saturday Night tapings in 1999 before disappearing.
