The Many Princes Of Wrestling - Ranked From Worst To Best

3. Prince Albert

Before Jason Alberts he was Sweet T, before Sweet T he was Lord Tensai, before that he was Giant Bernard. Before being released by WWE he was the A-Train, although that was an amended version of his previous name, Albert. Before all of that, current NXT head trainer Matt Bloom entered the World Wrestling Federation in 1999 at Prince Albert.

Don't google image search that.

Prince Albert started off as the personal tattooist of Droz (in a faction with Droz's dealer, Key), but Droz's paralysis in 1999 put an end to the team. After this, Prince Albert became the protégé of The Big Boss Man, but this didn't last too long either. Less than a year after arriving, he was no longer a Prince.

Whatever name you know him by, Bloom has had a decent career to say the least. His best work arguably came in New Japan Pro Wrestling as Giant Bernard, but he will always be Prince Albert in my eyes.

Eurgh. The Attitude Era was the worst.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
