Even the most random mid-carders had memorable gimmicks back then. That was one of the great things about the WWF. You had guys like the Berzerker, Skinner, the Repo Man, the Warlord, etc. Did any of those guys ever win a championship? No, but they left their marks with their memorable and unique gimmicks.
OMG Skinner and the Repoman. The gimmicks back then were great. I remember that rumble. I actually wanted Davey Boy Smith to win, I was so pissed when he was eliminated
Hmmm...@ 0:56 what does Skinner say? The biggest WHAT? Rag bearer?
Oh, and does anyone else notice how much Repo Man/Barry Darsow sounds like Jim Cramer, CNBC's insane stock picking guy on that show Mad Money? Youtube him and then come back and listen to Repo Man in this video and tell me what you think...
Yeah couldn't make make out what Skinner said there either until I listened a couple times but I think he says "biggest strap ever" his mouth was full of tobacco or something nice lol
Met Steve Keirn a few years ago.... he asked if I wanted the autograph to say Skinner, Doink or Steve Keirn. I said Steve Keirn. He smiled and wrote all three plus Fabulous Ones on it. Very nice person to meet. Great worker.
its so funny to see these old school wrestlers turned into cartoon characters, ted dibiase steve keirn barry darsow...not piper though..he was always himself
@00RSZEX That would have been awesome if Skinner won the Rumble. As a 10 year old kid, I would have marked out big time. I used to love Steve Keirn when he was one half of the Fabulous Ones.
skinner action figure: complete with chonch-stained beard.

WWE needs to bring back promos like this. It really helped introduce wrestlers to the viewers.
BTW...is it just me or did Repo Man sort of steal his laugh and the way he talked from actor Daniel Stern?
