Royal Rumble 1999: So close, so close, to me being able to write about that Bluedust angle where your man here called Goldust "Mommy" all the time, but sadly not to be. At this stage in 1999 Meanie was one of the main men (???) in Al Snow's J.O.B. Squad and, thusly, managed just under 3 minutes in the Rumble itself.

Where Are They Now: Still wrestling, unbelievably. He did two battle royales last year and teamed with a guy called Homeless Hank. I totally forgot until I started doing the research, but he was also in The Wrestler.

Royal Rumble 1999: What's this, a hardworking if limited Canadian wrestler, billed as a horrible, weasely heel from the Middle East who hates America?? What a novel idea you've got there Vince, maybe do it again some time. A whopping 4 minutes for Tiger here.

Where Are They Now: Appears to have retired in 2014 following a match with Rhino at TigerFest, a festival Tiger himself organised to raise money for the redevelopment of his local hospital. Occasionally crops up doing similar charitable and humanitarian endeavours in his local community.
