Character rip-offs
By Scott Keith on December 13, 2017
Scott,
Carrying on from the question about the Renegade, what’s the best example of a wrestler / character that started as a clear rip-off but went on to massive success of their own?
Demolition (from the Road Warriors)? Ric Flair (from Buddy Rogers)? Someone else?
Ironically, Flair started as a Dusty Rhodes tipoff and only swiped from Rogers later on.
I’m gonna go with Hollywood Hogan rebooting Superstar Graham, though.
