4. Bastion Booger
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKvl9udkMVE Back to the early 1990s we go to talk about Bastion Booger, who was a ridiculous over the top character that was featured in WWE in 1993 and into early 1994. What was his gimmick? He was a really fat guy who didn't wear a lot of clothes that ate a lot of food. Booger even ate food on his way to the ring. He ate food after matches. He hate food during promos. Booger ate fod all the time. I can also remember all the times when they would show unflattering camera angles of the guy. It was as if they wanted us to change the channel! The finishing move of Booger was pretty simple. He stood over a fallen opponent, did a little dance and landed so that his crotch went against the face of his opponent. Want to be a wrestler? Try taking that finishing move! A gross character was a good way to anger fans. Nobody wants to watch a guy like that. However, it wasn't a great gimmick by any means and thankfully he didn't have a long career in WWE.
