DIRTY BASTARDS That Made Wrestling GROSS! ?

7. The Nasty Boys

There are plenty of stories about what Jerry Sags and Brian Knobbs got up to on the road that would frankly scan as grosser than anything else that would make this list, but there was more than enough about them in front of the camera to make sure you never planned your dinner around a Nasty Boys match.

Whether it was Knobbs covering the lens in phlegm as he described an in-character life only half as weird as a real one being Hulk Hogan's mate, or Sags laying out the "Nasty Sensations" coming the way of the jobbers through the truck-sized gaps in his teeth, the former Tag Team Champions were ultra-effective at making you wince at the thought of being in their presence.

The Pit Stop was their revolting pièce de résistance, and like certain other wrestlers who used their less-than-fresh body parts for key offence, it's likely that Knobbs didn't worry too much about deodorant for the spot ahead of hitting the ring. They did at least occasionally reverse the curse - Sags went nose-to-nook every now and then, making for one of the biggest crowdpleasers in their arsenal.
