8 Embarrassing WWE Imposters

6. Another Evil Doink

WWE.com

The Doink character was originally conceived as a miserable clown by WWF's Hawk. Hard as it is to believe now, Doink actually debuted as a heel, wrestling a pretty basic, technically-sound style and playing tricks on wrestlers and ringside fans to amuse himself.

After months of doing this, Doink began to feud with Crush, leading to a match between the two at the disastrous WrestleMania IX. Towards the end of the slow and plodding match, Doink went out to ringside and peered under the ring. Moments later, a second Doink appeared and attacked Crush, costing him the match. Randy Savage, Bobby Heenan and Vince McMahon were priceless on commentary.

The second Doink made a few more appearances before disappearing when the original Doink turned face. Heel Doink was so much more interesting than face Doink.
