Ha. "Mike Rotunga"
Picturing David O. dressed like IRS wearing glasses and acting like he's reading a Wall Street Journal... a Michael Wallstreet Journal, if you will.
In all honesty, you shouldn't exactly exempt Bubba, D-Von, or Spike from the Dudley equation... what, with Buh-Buh's "speech impediment" that carried over to WWE for a hot minute, Devon doing "everything he can" to turn the semi-sympathetic face heel (to go on to become one of the most decorated Tag Teams evar) and then there's Little Spike Dudley... Jesus, his name is LSD and he acted like a tard who pretty much dropped 3 too many tabs.
Also, as far as the American Males go, it wasn't AS bad a gimmick as you are making it out to be in hindsight. Yeah, it'd be pretty brutal if someone did that like NOW, but think about when this was.
And, how are the Oddities on here but not ICP when they were in WCW?
Or the No Limit Soliders, for that matter??? They were pretty fucking terrible. This inclueds Konnan, as it was during his time where his screentime/ringtime consisted of the following formula:
a)comes to rinig b)talks shit on the mic c) gets his ass handed to him either by being jumped due to his promo OR losing a match to the guy he just called a "cranberry".
With all that said, though, eeeeeeyeah, the Ding Dongs get my vote.
