@peterp21 Oh okay cool, that's interesting to know. I've been a fan since 1989...but took about a 3-4 year break in the mid-90's, so I totally missed out on this Maxx fella. Sounds like Maxx Muscle was sort of like DDP's Alex Riley back then lol.

@ravelicon I'm no wannabe insider/smark, so I don't hate DDP for being Bischoff's boy, or that he scripted his matches in advance (vs the make-it-up-as-we-go method most wrestlers do), since Macho Man also worked like that. DDP deserved his push. He was genuinely over and had a killer finisher. He worked up from being a low-card average heel to a genuine top-level guy. It's not like he was some bum given a big spot for no reason.

@thuggin83 They gave him a mohawk, that's how. I remember Maxx when he was Maxx Muscle, and wore Zubaz, a tank top, and a fanny pack. You're typical gym rat/steroid dealer.

@Marcusofdoom666 Speaking of miscast, how about Big Bubba as a member! The DoD's problem was that they were a holdover from the cartoony 1995 days and once the NWO was around, they were completely superceded and just became a jobber stable. It didn't help you had about 15 guys in it (you forgot to mention Meng, Barbarian, Braun the Leperchaun, Hugh Morrus, and probably a couple others I can't even remember).

@DeathAdder83 Maxx actually used to be DDP's associate and would accompany him to the ring when he was a low-card heel in 1995. He was called Maxx Muscle then and wore Zubaz and a fanny pack. They threw Maxx a bone and put him in the Dungeon of Doom by this point, long past when the DoD was any sort of effective entity. I don't think Maxx ever won a match.

LONG LIVE MAXX MUSCLE. LOL

lololol exactly

@ballinonabudget So you're saying he could be World Champ in WWE nowadays. Shame he retired lol.

His health ruined his image, and as we know the WWE doesn't let people rehab

They we're a totally un-credible faction. kevin sullivan was believable as a maniac but he just wasn't a good wrestler and everyone else either were over the hill (shark, butcher, kamala), totally miscast (konan?!?) or just plain ??? Maxx Muscle
i was never a huge DDP mark, but I'm still pissed how WWE ruined page's image.........and who in the hell is Maxx is that the guy from Streets of Rage 2?

DDP wanted to hit that springboard clothesline of his but when Maxx was more hurt than DDP thought....DDP just switched up his moveset and hit that springboard splash. Thats a fn wrestler! Take notes people!
