Rants

Bam Bam

By Scott Keith on March 28, 2017


Bam Bam debuts for WWF soon according to the observer reviews. He was primed as a mega star in 87-88 before he left and returned in 93 as a huge monster heel. Why wasn’t he given the Yokozuna push? We’re in September and it says "kokina" as a headshrinker/Samoan? BBB was huge compared to the other guys there in late 92, could’ve won the Rumble, had a classic with Bret at Mania 9, and set Yokozuna up for KOTR/Summerslam.


​Yeah, but he was also flaky, injury-prone, and seemingly more loyal to Japan than either major promotion in the US. Given that he’d already burned both sides in 88 and then WCW again in 90, I can see why no one wanted to give him a monster push.​
