10 Insane Lengths Wrestlers Went To Get Revenge For Real
1. The Nasty Boys Live Down To The Gimmick
What is the most aptly named wrestling act or wrestler?
Is it Mark Callaway, for his output during the Invasion storyline?
What about Mr. Perfect, because he truly was a flawless mechanic?
Or is it Madcap Moss, because he was just absolutely mental?
The Nasty Boys rank quite high up there, because they were known within the industry as unhygienic slobs who thought nothing of passing wind in public, but also ugly human beings prone to bursts of violence. They also, per the recollection of Ken Shamrock, did not respect the boundaries of women. The story goes, in 1990, that the Nasty Boys kept attempting to molest the partner of one of Shamrock's friends. They kept grabbing her "t*t", Shamrock told them not to do it, they didn't listen, and it was only when a bouncer walked onto the scene that they were kicked out of the bar.
Shamrock didn't calm down. He knew where the Nastys were staying, but couldn't exact vengeance; per Shamrock's side of the story, Jerry Sags anticipated him coming, lurked by the side of the door, and smashed him with a phone. Then, wearing steel toecap boots, he sent Shamrock to the hospital. Sags, without admitting to misconduct, did blame a "no-good rat" being behind the fight. What a complete ar*ehole.
So the Nasty Boys beat up Ken Shamrock in revenge for his looking out for a terrified, abused woman.
F*ck me.
