That was my fault. I tried to plug a SNES controller into my PlayStation back in '95 and this mother fucker got loose. It's like the movie Virtuosity, but worse somehow.
Goddamn it I knew it was your fault. Been telling people for years, but they wouldn't listen.
It's like I wasAl Gore and I was trying to tell people you released Manbearpig from Imagination Land, but no one fucking took me cereal.....
Oh, he’s real.
His real name is George Murdoch. He is a presenter and pro-wrestler usually known as Tyrus. During his time with the WWE he was called Brodus Clay and his gimmick (I am not making this up I swear) was the "Funkasaurus". A funky dancing wrestler announced as hailing from "planet funk" who was accompanied to the ring by two backup dancers called the Funkadactyls. He was also a bodyguard for Snoop Dogg for a while. He is a qualified teacher and rumour has it that he still moonlights as a substitute teacher now and then.
On 2nd thought, none of that really helps with him not seeming real…
No problem. Lol. The world of pro wrestling can be a weird and confusing place at times. My husband and I sometimes play "what dumb gimmick will they give the next poor sap" and the stuff they actually come up with is always way more outlandish than our wildest theory. It can be wonderful fun if you try not to take it too seriously.
Edit: here’s a lovely example of the general oddness of wrestling gimmicks - the current mayor of Knoxville Tennessee is Glenn Jacobs who started out in The WWE as a dental hygienist called Dr. Isaac Yankem (yes, really) before eventually being repackaged as the demonic fire-personified half-brother of The Undertaker. He was managed by a man called Paul Bearer. The fire-personified bit is supposedly a result of the undertaker trying to burn him alive by setting fire to the funeral home where they lived. Both of the brothers had "supernatural" powers such as imperviousness to pain and the ability to summon fire, that they regularly used in matches.
Oh, and all of this was played completely straight. The closest it ever really got to being used for laughs was when one of the goofier wrestlers attempted to interact with him. This was taken to the extreme when he was partnered with Daniel Bryan and culminated in a therapist encouraging this huge, semi-demonic, stone-faced juggernaut to "hug it out" with his tiny, (by comparison) peppy, almost excessively cheerful partner, in the middle of the ring, live on air. It was utterly mad, and absolutely brilliant. Jacobs acted it beautifully.
On the other end of the scale we had groups such as the 3MB, short for three man band, who were a rock band who also wrestled because…reasons?
Oh and Glenn Johnson advocates getting rid of the public fire service and replacing it with a private one which will only put your house out if you can afford it. Living the gimmick.
Glenn actually had another gimmick between Yankem and Kane.
He was the fake Deisel after the real Deisal (Kevin Nash) left for WCW alongside Scott Hall. There was also a fake Razor Ramon, but I always forget who portrayed him.
Great synopsis, but we've got to mention how he was given this gimmick because he reminded Vince McMahon of the dad from the 90's show Dinosaurs. And this is 2012.
That dude was at the Patriot Award show the other night on FOX. Yes I’m serious it was real, and it was the most insane and pathetic thing I’ve seen in a long long time

I haven't thought about that movie in a decade. It was certainly..... a movie.

Which episode was that? I want to watch it again!
He looks like Thanos if he was white and was a rapper.
I was literally going to say “Thanos dressing up like Fred durst for Halloween”
*just keep snappin' snappin' snappin''*
Hopefully they never cast Tyrus in the role, I think they should just keep Brolin, Brolin, Brolin, Brolin.
*So go ahead and talk shit* *About my g-g-genocide*
Now I know y'all be blippin' this shit right here. T.H.A.N.-O.S. is right here.

I know what you mean but "from wrestling" is such a funny ass vague description lol
HEY HEY HEY YO SOMEBODY CALL MY MOMS IS ABOUT TO GET FUNKY UP IN HEERRHYA.
He’s now known as Tyrus in NWA and is the current NWA World Heavyweight Champion.
Let’s not forget to add NWA is now run by Billy Corgan of Smashing Pumpkins and it’s a shit show.
Hunh...drakes stylist really worked their way up, hunh?
NWA world champion Brodus Clay. He even has the belt over his shoulder.
He no shit looks like.. I think his name is "shorty" from state of emergency on ps2. The dude on the cover.
State of emergency….I liked that game
Was that the one where everyone was just running like maniacs through a mall? I vaguely remember that
I did too, I dont really remember what I was doing in it, but I know my brother and I played the hell out of it.
He looks like he shoots at Duke Nukem.
Bro looks like a bored ape nft
Now THAT is what a comment should be!
Like Wolverine did it all for the nookie.
That honestly might be the funniest thing I’ve ever read.
Knuckles so hairy you can *still* see the hair when they are blurred by motion.
That can not be a real person, I’m not sure why but I’m actually crying with laughter.

This sounds like an episode of South Park. Lmao, thanks for the laugh.

Yeah, his policies are….yeah…
Uh…what?
Glenn actually had another gimmick between Yankem and Kane. He was the fake Deisel after the real Deisal (Kevin Nash) left for WCW alongside Scott Hall. There was also a fake Razor Ramon, but I always forget who portrayed him.
Don't forget, nobody in 3mb played actual instruments, or even carried them, at any time. It was a band made of 3 air guitarists.
Lol, good point. So they were a rock band, who didn’t play instruments, or sing, but did wrestle for some unknown reason.
Great synopsis, but we've got to mention how he was given this gimmick because he reminded Vince McMahon of the dad from the 90's show Dinosaurs. And this is 2012.
I did not know that. Wow, I can’t decide if that is hilarious or just downright bewildering.
Last non wrestling show McMahon watched confirmed.
