The original and longest running incarnation of Doink the Clown, Matt Osborne played his character with style. The villainous clown character is fondly remembered by WWF fans of the early 90's, and the act got over so much that Borne even got a Wrestlemania match (and victory) under his belt. Doink went on to good matches with Curt Hennig and Bret Hart, before departing the WWF who replaced him. Osborne briefly had a run with ECW before disappearing into obscurity. He would however appear in a WWE ring in 2007 as part of Raw's 15th year anniversary. He died aged 55, reportedly of an accidental drug overdose.
