10 Times WWE Characters Had Sexual Awakenings
9. Dean Malenko Gets Creepy
By late 2000 - not to be reductive - technical marvel Dean Malenko was too boring for the WWF, so he became a menacing sex pest to justify his continued presence on the rampant television product of the time.
Malenko was a disturbing choice to play Lita's stalker. The material, as with much of the WWF's Attitude Era output, was beyond the pale. Malenko essentially forced himself on Lita for ages despite being told, over and over again, that she wasn't interested. That said, Malenko didn't lighten it with the cheeky levity of his old Radicalz stablemate Eddie Guerrero. His gravelly voice and icy delivery rendered it far more sinister than sleazy.
The obsession grew to such a frenzy that he offered Lita a stab at his Light Heavyweight Title in December of that year. She lost the match, and thus had to go on a date with her stalker. On that date, Malenko asked the sex object not to speak. He instead wanted "the language of love to do the talking" because the only thing Lita was good for was "taking care of Mr. Rockefeller".
In the end, Malenko's attempts to coerce Lita into having sex with him under duress were thwarted by the Hardy Boyz. The answer to unwelcome attention from men is to get two more men to say no on your behalf.
