TAFKA Goldust chose a Baby New Year guise for the last Raw of 1997. He chugged from a four-litre milk bottle while wearing a padded diaper and a blue and white checked bonnet and bib combo. His painted-on rosy cheeks were as obvious as twin sniper rifles aimed at his face.

The high-pitched voice he chose to “express” himself in was an echo from a hellscape were John Waters meets Rugrats. He had the most memorable Royal Rumble entrant announcement in the match’s history. However, he made a misstep when he poked Stone Cold Steve Austin by claiming to be the “toughest S.O.B.” in the WWF. To add further insult to ‘The Texas Rattlesnake’, Goldust also pulled out a thong as a gift for Austin and invited him to play the Ken to his Barbie.

Austin arrived bearing gifts too - a portable toilet he’d christened “Crapper 3:16”. Austin added the background information that “four out of five construction workers [he] surveyed said it stunk like Hell when they were inside today”. After a one-sided beatdown, Goldust was launched into the portable toilet, which Austin tipped with ‘The Bizarre One’ inside.
