Back in May of this year, Twitter was flipped on its head when former WWE/WCW wrestler Virgil created his own account. To put it simply, he's kind of like Iron Sheik 2.0, but with less humbling. His tweets come off funny, yet kind of sad, which makes for great entertainment.

If you don't recall Virgil, he was famously known for being "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase's bodyguard/personal assistant in the late 80's and early 90's. He eventually grew tired of DiBiase's treatment and turned on him in 1991. This led to a feud in which Virgil won the Million Dollar Championship Title for a few months.

In 1996, Virgil went to WCW as "Vincent", and was added to the ever-growing nWo stable. After a couple years in WCW, he semi-retired from wrestling, and became a teacher. In 2010, he made a short return to the WWE as Ted DiBiase Jr's bodyguard, but was promptly fired, and replaced by Maryse.

Okay, now that you're all caught up, let's take a look at some of the most insane -- minus the obscenities -- tweets by Virgil.

Very first tweet, this is a nice preview of what's to come.  You'll noticed delusions of grandeur dotted throughout these tweets. Nice touch with the pen toss, very Razor Ramon.

Josh's work has been seen on Cageside Seats, Yahoo, and The Richest. If it's not pro wrestling, he's definitely thinking about cured meats and/or sushi, but never all three at the same time...that can get weird. Twitter: @HeelDoors
