10 Wrestling Facts We Didn’t Know Last Week (Oct 19)

1. Vince McMahon Thought Yokozuna Should've Shown More Ass

If anyone happened to be eating as they clicked through this article and subsequently lost their lunch upon seeing Rikishi's bottom, then we wholeheartedly apologise. Unfortunately for digestion systems everywhere, it was essential for this entry.

Apparently, in the mind of Vinnie Mac, a 400-pound Samoan in a thong was essential full stop.

On Something To Wrestle With, Bruce Prichard said it was McMahon's idea to have the ex-Headshrinker don the tiniest underwear ever and shake his big ass on screen. In fact, to Vince, it'd make up for Yokozuna's decision to cover up his own ample behind years before. That was always something the boss regretted.

By the time Rikishi came around, there was no room for negotiation. If he wanted to play the gimmick, then he'd have to do what his predecessor wasn't willing to and show off his chunk to millions across the world. Rikishi didn't have a problem with it, and actually told both Bruce and Vince that he always thought Yoko should've done the same.

Pro wrestling, ladies and gentlemen.
