But who remembers Vince McMahon's other failed promotion: the WBF?

I was reading a seanbaby article, when I found this gem embedded in it.

Holy shit. Listen to McMahon marking out and flatout orgasming over this dude. Prior to this, I'd only heard about the World Bodybuilding Federation. No wonder it never went anywhere.

Well this explains Vince's obsession with jacked dudes who can't wrestle.

geez no wonder that went nowhere

IIRC Lex Luger was hired originally to be apart of that lame WBF

The dude's back is horrible, legs too small for the rest of his body, upper bodybuilder. Wouldn't even make top 10 at Olympia

This commentary rivals Bobby Heenan with The Narcissist at the 1993 Royal Rumble.

What did it do and I'll "crudenize" (another word I made up) it for you (i.e. i'll make it look shit and crude, hence crudenize).

Much love, goodnight.

Didn't the WBF also collapse roughly the same time as Vince being investigated and then later going to court over illegal steroids and steroids supplier by the Feds?
