15 Bizarre Wrestling Gimmicks You Won't Believe Happened More Than Once

7. Technical Wrestling Ladies' Man

Read into this however you like, but the only trope Vince McMahon thinks is funnier than huge black dudes being uncontrollable lust machines is hard-nosed technical wrestlers being super good at sex. Now, I don't think it's particularly ridiculous that a guy who knows a bunch of wrestling holds might also enjoy intercourse, but I'm not a deranged billionaire. Dean Malenko developed a fondness for the Godfather's hos. Lance Storm found out he had Jerry Gergich's penis and struck up a wacky, womanizing friendship with Val Venis. Even Daniel Bryan briefly had a gimmick where his grappling skill was so attractive to women that it could summon impromptu white people dance parties.

Maybe the severity of the gimmick is in direct proportion to wrestling skill, because no one got it worse than Kurt Angle. He was a legitimate Olympic gold medalist, so he had to show up on SmackDown howling about he and Sharmell were going to have "bestiality sex." Luckily this aspect of Angle's personality was soon forgotten, and we never had to watch a backstage segment where Our Olympic Hero tried to get Mrs. T to put on a goat costume or whatever.
