The Bizarre Tale Of The Misfits In WCW

Jerry Only is an intense person.

Vampiro has said that it’s like the Misfits founding member is on a caffeine high 24 hours a day, and his passion for his band and performing is extreme. Only immediately transferred this enthusiasm to wrestling, and thought that this would be more than just a quick opportunity to promote his band. He thought he was adding a new aspect to his career as a performer. Jerry wasn’t just showing up at a wrestling show. In his mind, he was now a wrestler.

To make this miraculous transformation happen, he bought a wrestling ring. He set the ring up at his family’s factory in New Jersey and began practicing. WCW had given him a one-year contract, and he believed it was not out of the question that he would win gold in that time. Jerry, according to Vampiro, thought he was going to be Hulk Hogan.

Alas, it was not to be.
