17 Early 90s WWE Superstars You Totally Don't Remember
10. The Berzerker
John Nord was a big man in WWF, who stood at 66 and weighed 323lbs., so he shouldve been a good fit in Vinces company. When he debuted in WWF in 1991, he was given the name The Viking, whose gimmick was self-explanatory, before it was changed to The Berzerker, based off of the legendary Norse warriors of the same name. Nords preferred method of victory was to use his size to his advantage, lifting his opponents over his head, throwing them off the top rope and out of the ring, winning by count-out. He didnt accomplish anything in WWF, however, outside of being the last man on his team to be eliminated at the 1991 Survivor Series, and briefly feuding with the Undertaker, and attempted to stab Taker with his sword. It seems that size isnt everything to be a big star in WWF.
