Doink the Clown was the mother fucking man.

Was gonna make a thread about Doink but figured I'd check for one first. I've spent the last hour or 2 watching all the footage of him from his TV debut playing pranks, through his first TV match up until he wrestled Bossman a few weeks after he attacked Crush, so ridiculously good. With wrestling the way it is nowadays, I doubt we'll ever see a character built so slowly and brilliantly again. I mean, it was over 2 months before they revealed a name for him and 3 months before he even wrestled on TV. Glorious. If you're one of those people that never really saw Doink/just assumed it was a shit gimmick because it's a clown in wrestling, you really should watch the vids.
