Bob Sapp is retiring from MMA so alot of sites are posting old pics and videos of him. Anyway I came across this and dont remember him on Thunder at all.

Anyone have the back story or remember what he did?

I think it was a one off thing, although wikipedia probably knows.

He was in WCW developmental, but the WWF released him when they bought the company

That makes sense. He is a huge star in Japan and even with a horrible MMA record, he supposedly has over $10 mill in the bank. I always thought he had the physique, the look, and the personality to make it in prowrestling.

I wonder why they cut him.

I think that was the only time he was on tv, though. Maybe.

That promo was awful, and that interviewer was even worse.

I don't ever remember this being on WCW though. Probably best that way.

You also have to think, they went from booking Tank Abbott from legit knockout machine badassery to 3 Count groupie, so things might have been better for EVERYONE by this not working out... be it our sanity or his dignity.

It was a one time thing, he never appeared after this promo.
