Does anyone know the backstory on why Steve Corino is doing a Mr. Wrestling 3 gimmick?

Mr. Mediocre
Hank Scorpio
Bert Early?... sorry, that's a typo. Butt. Ugly.
Much better since I was last here.

I don't know the backstory, but I assume it's because he has said repeatedly he's retiring at the end of the year and being Mr. Wrestling III will mean that his Corino character can be retired without him having to.

Didn't Russo already use the Mr. Wrestling 3 name/gimmick?

In 2000, JR and King used to joke that Val Venis was Mr. Wrestling III...

Mr T L Wolf
Hank Scorpio
He has the looks of Andre the Giant, and the strength of Barry Windham. Not to mention he's a hero to a few armadillos, a kangaroo and a small herd of bison.

Actually Mr. Wrestling 2 is working for AWA Hawaii right now as an authority figure and debuted a Mr. Wrestling 3. Official website is mrwrestling3.com and from the two shows Ive seen him in hes definitely not Corino
EDIT: Never mind it is Corino. Saw the tattoos. Well Corino is doing a good job. I couldnt even tell it was him under the mask

The lack of Kevin Steen in this thread is disheartening.  |

Didn't Corino announce he was gonna quit wrestling in America a few years back, and just wrestle overseas?
