5 WWE Incest Angles We'd Rather Forget
3. Beaver Cleavage (Mother And Son)
An infamously atrocious gimmick, former Headbanger Mosh's time as Beaver Cleavage. After being somewhat popular in the colourful world of the Attitude Era as one half of the Headbangers, Mosh was repackaged as a strange parody of the sitcom Leave it to Beaver. If you're reading this thinking "What the hell is Leave it to Beaver," rest assured fans at the time were just as lost.
WWE using a sitcom from the 1950s as a stepping stone for a new superstar is possibly the least strange aspect of this gimmick. Mosh would appear in vignettes with his busty, blonde mother who he was more than a little smitten with. He would ogle her breasts as she told him the benefits of "mother's milk" with his dry cereal. Mosh was essentially asked to play a repressed child obsessed with his storyline mother as fans shook their head in confusion and disdain.
Ultimately, the man saddled with the gimmick had enough and refused to do it anymore. The angle is still synonymous with the Attitude Era and is often brought up when a person is focusing solely on the highlights from the time. Mosh eventually went back to Headbanging but not after having to endure a domestic violence storyline first. Yes that's right, incest angle before being accused of hitting his girlfriend who was the same woman who portrayed his mother just weeks prior....only in WWE.
