10 New Generation-Era WWE Stars You Totally Don't Remember

Oscar Men On A Mission

We all remember Men on a Mission now, the wonderfully bright tag team that was the launching pad for the long on-and-off career of Mabel/King Mabel/Viscera/Big Daddy V. Yeah, I remember, it was Mabel and Mo, vicious heels from the USWA that were repackaged as babyfaces in the WWF as rappers with positive attitudes. They were just trying to make their ghetto better you know, as seen in the terribly racist vignettes that preceded their debut. The 1990s weren't always great.

The duo had a manager too, however, a chap by the name of Oscar. You might remember Oscar, but I'll be damned if you can remember what he looked like. Oscar was the 'O' in the team's 'M.O.M' name, and that is about as good as it got for the guy. He doesn't even have a Wikipedia page.

Oscar didn't last too long in WWF, eventually being destroyed by his charges in order to turn them heel and begin Mabel's monster push that didn't work in the slightest. Oscar was initially supposed to stay with the duo after the heel turn, but as a positive person he was disgusted by the move and subsequently retired from pro wrestling. Watching back his buddies turning on him disgusts me too.

You may not remember Oscar, but Kevin Nash does.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
