LOL A black wannabe pimp managing a redneck prison guard and a confused, fat white kid who claims to be from the deepest of Africa hahaha. Wrestling will never be this good again. By the way, check out Akeem at 5:05, how is he supposed to have Bossman's back while spazzing out at the same time? Haha. I miss the good old wwf days.
I don't care how many times I watch this video, I laugh every freakin time! The WWF in the 80's and 90's was better than any soap opera on tv. True geniuses! I want my old WWF back!
I think WWF were by FAR the best entertainers during this time. BY FAR. and the sad thing about this is they NEVER get the credit they rightfully deserve. its sad. these guys entertained us more than anybody during this time and wrestlers never get any credit.
those dance moves are one of a kind and quite hypnotic. meanwhile, that guy handcuffed to the ropes was getting the piss beat out of him, lol. damn, who writes the scrips for wwf now? ever since they lost the f, it's been shit. anywho, arenio's show was the coolest!
Shane has left the WWE, it's now run by Triple H and Stephanie. I do agree that Vince had good ideas in the past, but he used to copy his competitors a lot as well.
to bad that at wrestlemania in 2001 the gimmick battle royal akeem did came out as one man gang and not as akeem.
love akeem!!!
love the video on you tube ´´one man gang becomes akeem, at 3.10min foooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooll to mean gene hahahahahaha lmao
The funny thing is, they could have just put One Man Gang with Bossman and it would have made so much more sense. Instead they turned OMG into Akeem. Though, I found Akeem to be the more entertaining character.
Lol. I was thinking the same thing. If I was the ref and a 400 pound white guy with an identity crisis and a pseudo-pimp were dancing in front of me, I'd just stand back.
The WWF was so much funnier then, than now. There were so many different funny people then.

If a man as large as Akeem wanted to dance in my face, I'd just let him.
Even if he looks very much like that fat kid spazzing out on the couch.
