Ranking Every WWE DOINK From Worst To Best

2. Jeff Jarrett

The closest the Doink character ever came to actually being Doink again after his babyface turn, Jeff Jarrett's twisted assault on Dink during a 1994 WWE Superstars taping was made all the more awful by convivial commentator Vince McMahon pretending he didn't absolutely love it.

The clown had made a fool of the country music star, resulting in Jarrett somehow stealing his clothes and obliterating his miniature mate with silly string, squirty and two massive custard pies in the face until poor Dink fell off an interview platform.

Covered in detritus, he whimpered off as the crowd seemed genuinely appalled with this act of unsolicited cruelty until 'Double J' cinematically revealed his long flowing blonde locks underneath the green wig. The heels rejoiced as Jarrett concluded the skit threatening worse for Doink while still sporting his face paint. If it sounds a bit like b*llocks it's because it was, but the brief thrill of seeing Doink be awful again (and Jarrett and Lawler's terrific commitment to the bit) help this bizarre scene hold up better than just about anything else the central characters did that year.
