Never got the appeal
By Scott Keith on January 17, 2018
Who are some figures from the wrestling world whose popularity or appeal you never understood?
Gotta start with Gene Okerlund. An a-ok presenter and moderator, but nothing special at all. Also his grabbing and thirsty behavior towards women half (or more) his age was always offputting
Never understood the love of Roddy Piper. Always found his matches to be mediocre at best, to downright atrocious many times (WCW nineties run comes to mind). His sense of humor in his segments/interviews was always clichéd and lame in my view
Clearly you're not watching it right, then. Mostly what you need is old, pre-WWF Piper, before he decided to become an actor.
For me, I never got Pedro Morales or understood why he was so popular in New York. He had nothing in the ring, nothing on promos…I just don't get what made him into such a big draw at the time.
