Ah, this man went through many incantations. When he first showed up as Johnny B Badd I spit milk through my nose, and I was not even drinking milk at the time. WCW was very keen on having white guys play black guys, with PN News being another.
One of his early, wild feuds was with Brian Pillman. He had this sticky lip cutout he would carry around and stick on people, and he slapped one on Pillman and Pillman smacked him. Anyone remember Badd going at it with Johnny "Raven" Polo in a "boxing match" - they did the old gig where he dipped his gloves in water to make them harder and knocked him out.
When he came into the WWF as "Wildman" Marc Mero he showed a fire and intensity, and moved into the big picture, thanks to that ho Sable.

I liked his Johnny B. Badd theme music. But other than that, he really sucked. Best thing about him was that ho Sable.

He wasn't a bad grappler, I just hated his gimmicks when I was younger. When I look back on it now, it's so bad it's good.

Did you like when Sable would grab the mic and go, "Would you like to see me do the Grind?" in that annoying nasaly voice, and then do it to a chorus of boos?

And then the overprotective Mero would run out and cover her up and give her a stern talkin' to, just as Mike Knox does to that trollop Kelly Kelly today.
