10 Most Boring WWE Wrestlers Of All Time
5. The Bolsheviks
Everybody had a role in 1980s WWE.
Vince McMahon grew his empire through every possible avenue during an era now remembered as much for the lives it took as the fans it made. The road was relentless, with McMahon routinely sending out three strands of his travelling circus out there to keep audiences entertained all across the nation.
He sold those tickets through a television show that spread just as wide, but if your town wasn't getting a Hogan, Savage or a Warrior, how was he going to get you there?
Quantity.
The Bolsheviks existed just to exist. Throw 'em out there every four weeks to squash some jobbers in the hope that punters might at least give half a sh*t about The Rockers or Demolition or another actually good act facing them in F*cksville, Montana.
They weren't alone in that serving that purpose, but they were the dirt worst at it. The Young Stallions, The Islanders and even The Conquistadors all occupied similar roles but at least there was something to grab on to. That was the point - if McMahon could put you on a toy or a poster, he could put you on a card. They made for funny action figures and their retrograde look should have stolen the cheapest heat.
That it struggled to in that environment was the biggest indictment of all.
