RD any plans to induct the Cobra (Jeff Farmer)?

[default]

I just read about it a few minutes ago, after stumbling into Jeff Farmer's wiki page. His feud with Sgt. Pittman sounded fairly craptastic, what with the fact that he didn't even look old enough in his photos to have fought in Vietnam, which he supposedly did with Pittman, with Farmer being around 12 and Pittman being like 15. Oh, and an apparently they blew off the feud with a PPV match at Fall Brawl that didn't even go two minutes.

Oh, and Cobra bounced back and got a WCW World Title match on Nitro against The Giant in early November!

Wasn't Cobra the nWo Sting, or am I thinking of someone else?

Nope, that was him.

Wait, a military angle that didn't get over? Get out of town!

I always thought Sgt. Slaughter (pre-Iraq) was somewhat over.

Sgt. Slaughter was massively over in the early eighties. When the WWF started running two house shows a night, Hogan would headline one show, and Slaughter would headline the other.

As a matter of fact, I believe I heard somewhere that the WWF started running two shows, specifically to capitalize on Slaughter's popularity.

Other than Slaughter, though, it never freaking works.

Mostly because fans typically pick up on the BS, or the timing is awful.
