Doink was legitimately one of the best wrestlers of the 90s. The character work, the terror, and the ability in the ring, were amazing for such an odd character.
FACTS one minute doink is a happy funny clown the next minute he’s acts like the joker.
@@cliffordjackson3 as a kid I always thought he was going to do something fucked up to my man Bret or HBK. Lol. He had so many good IC matches. Best clown in the game
Doink scared the crap out of me!
@@JeefMcQueef the first time i saw a picture of doink , i legit thought it was a dark character . Sad they didn't go through with it
We all mean Matt Bornes Doink yea?
Captain Howdy was also the name Regan used for the Demon possessing her in The Exorcist.
Exactly. So we have a masked demon with contact lenses coming to exact revenge on his “other half”. Seems familiar.
@@wayn0r contact lenses?
@@UnderTheShadowOfHisWings He's talkin bout his Mama.
The demons name was Cousin Howdy*
@@bollocohones2737 I read the book and saw the movie back in the 1970s. It's Captain Howdy.
Diesel is slang for muscular i.e Big E is diesel...Brock Lesnar is diesel...love the show Simon
Captain Howdy was also the name for Pazuzu in the early stages of demonic possession in The Exorcist. So maybe Bray is on the slow incline of being possessed by The Fiend again
IT'S YOUR UNCLE HOWDY YALL😂
Diesel wasn’t slang for cool, it’s was slang for strong. 😂
I'm always interested in bray. He adds so much to a show and theatrics whether anyone wants to admit it or not are the best. Also Doink was so far ahead of the times
Captain Howdy was from the Exorcist
I always figured Doink was originally inspired, at least in part, by John Wayne Gacy, hence the clown who acts like a serial killer. May have had shades of Pennywise in there too. Great character regardless, until Borne got fired anyway.
Uncle Howdy reminds me of a twisted version of the plastic cowboys from the Primus music video for Wynona's Big Brown Beaver
Visually, Uncle Howdy is based on Tex Hex from the cartoon Bravestarr
Captain Howdy makes an appearance in a few other movies. There's Strangland with Dee Snider, and the Exorcist. Now I am wondering if there's more as I didn't know about the movie Hysterical.
Captain Howdy is also the character played by Twisted Sister singer Dee Snider in the movie Strangeland.
I'm almost 100% Captain Howdy was originally from The Exorcist. He was who Regan thought she was talking to through the Quiji Board.
Y'all should do a wrestling legends series. And include the likes on Vadar and Rick Rude please. I could see Simon going this guy is a legend... Here's why. Lol
I've seen that MJF documentary. It's obviously NOT REAL but it's still a pretty easy watch. The entire time from the very start of the video the overall tone and vibe gradually starts going downhill and gets a little dark. I personally loved it.
FACTS dude.
I believe that the whole concept of doink was originally based on stephen king's "it"
Tracy Smothers is a legend
5:43 Chris Jericho and Joey Mercury [Ex tag member of John Morrison aka Johnny Nitro ] were mutually influential i heard.
Always happy to hear about Scott Bigelow, my fave as a kid.
I remember a Twisted Sister song from the mid 80's called "Captain Howdy", about someone who came off as a kid show host/child murderer...
Strangeland
One of the only finest , creepiest ,scariest , legendary origin of wwe "Dha Undertaker" Aka Deadman' walkin
We all love Naked Mideon
I love these videos I watch every single one and the podcasts😊
🎶 In a sleepy little on the Oregon Coast
That's where they found Captain Howdy's ghost...
Actor who played Captain howdy was also played Adam Sandler's boss in Happy Gilmore
Did you start a video with the bull guy recently?? Love the channel keep up the great content boyos love from OKC 405 USA
Sapulpa 918 here
I can see the Fiend as the Joker.
I thought it was always pretty obvious where Adam Cole got "Bay Bay" from, I remember Jericho saying that. 😂🤣😁
Kenny Johnson’s documentaries are great
I want a part 2
Met Kiel and talked. Awesome guy.
when I first heard of Adam Cole bay bay i first thought of the Jericho cocky pin bay bay
That's exactly where he got it from actually.
@@elchomper.1063 no shit sherlock lol
Simon miller vs simon miller what a matchup
We love you Simon ❤️
JUSTICE FOR MANTAR!!
Also Check out Strangeland.
Adam Cole is a Next Gen Y2J
Dang right!!!
Uncle Howdy is Orton 💓
Okay cool video
I gotta believe that Brock vs cena at summerslam ‘16 was partially based on Vader’s debut
My guess… Uncle Howdy is Bo Dallas
Doink was soo dark that's why Simon wants him back
Diesel NEVER was slang for cool…it was slang for having a muscular physique. Like “damn, look at that dude, he’s diesel”…it applies to almost anything that is big…you could say “I’m not moving that appliance, that thing is diesel”.
The oranges, u know , the beginning. The oranges .
I had to dress as naked mideon for a charity football game this year 😂
Ok Mantaur looks so cute
Lol MJF is dad is still in his live
I don't claim to be the coolest person in the world, but I've never lived in a reality where ANYONE at all ever referred to anything cool as "diesel". Not fucking ever ...
Donk the clown was more like John Wayne gacy
💗👌
People always asking "Who is uncle Howdy" but never "How is uncle Howdy" :(
Why is Uncle Howdy?
And this is why he will get upset
Vader character actually came from Big Bear which was fighter on the game Fatal Fury form the early 90s.
There's a story in Japanese folklore about how samurai would travel to an island to fight out their disputes and the winner would be given the title Vader, which means Emperor's Warrior. The name of the Final Fight character and the wrestler both have the same origins. One isn't named after another.
Is it me or am the only one that watching these videos when Simon is doing the commentary??
If i had to guess uncle howdy is a play on Barry Windham which is Bray's uncle.
Bring back Doink, Bam Bam was so wasted.. silly name with a silly gimmick he was even booked to loose to a foot ball player lol the wwe never did anything with him
Unpopular opinion, but Nash is the most overrated wrestler to ever lace the boots
"Unpopular opinion" you say, before then saying one of the biggest internet wrestling fan opinions for the last 20 years. Do you know what unpopular means?
@@davidswentnickas7595 what I'm saying is as far as in ring talent, he was limited much like the other gooches he was associated with in dubya c dubya
He's even admitted he has no business being a "wrestler"
Sure, he could work a mike & draw crowds, but he was useless in a ring
I remembering Captain howdy from a Rob Zombie film.. The Devil's Rejects.
Thats Captain Spawlding
Waste of TV Time. Bray coming back is a disappointment
BRAH, AM I THE ONLY FAN WHO THINKS "UNCLE HOWDY" LOOKS KINDA LIKE "TOMMY WILDFIRE RICH"?? IRWIN??
