Why they fricked with his gimmick is beyond me. God WCW booking sucked so hard. If it wasn't NWO related they just didn't care.

Hey Chris Jericho.. we don't care. Go wrestle for some meaningless mid-card shite.

Hey Alex Wright... you are pretty over, but we need Norman Smiley to be the stupid dance guy.... why don't we make you a Nazi!

Probably because anyone with booking influence was in NWO

Alex Wright and Disco were the worst....at points in time with Raw they were the only thing that was a real channel changer on Nitro.

Looks like he had one move, and it was a bad one.

For me, when I was a kid, it was Cowboy Bill Watts, Grizzly Adams, Skandar Akbar (as an actual wrestler and a good guy), then later Junkyard Dog, Killer Karl Kox, and Dick Murdoch.

The best match ever was a brass knuckles match with Cowboy Bill Watts and the Big Cat Ernie Ladd, Monroe Civic Center, Watts got the win, lots of blood and even Watts boot came off and he used it on the Big Cat. Loved it!

Forgot about Ernie Ladd. Hacksaw Butch Reed and Hacksaw Jim Dugan were about the back end same time frame. Buck Robeley just popped in my head as well. Good times,
