I just for the life of me don't see how this was supposed to be a weekly wrestling character. Hell, I don't see how it could possibly exist outside of the dumb vignettes, which is probably why it didn't for long. This is what I was going to say It's a vignette character only. Sean O'Haire's character was a similar sort. finally someone else realizes that about O'Haire.

Yea, the vignettes were awesome but it's not something that translates to an actual wrestler/gimmick. Isn't the character supposed to be a figment of your imagination? If so, it makes no sense to have him as a real person.

Lets see, he was a member of the flying nuns, a headbanger (originally used in SMW but i digress), chaz, and a member of lo down. Thats only four by my count. ...You uh, left out Beaver Cleavage. He was one of The Spiders, too, and worked one or two tapings just barely above jobber level.

It's a vignette character only. Sean O'Haire's character was a similar sort. Beaver Cleavage definitely was, but I disagree with O'Haire. His gimmick was great, but it was far more suited for someone who was going to be in a managerial role, and one they teamed him with Piper, it made even less sense.

I really really liked this gimmick for how stupid it was, easily one of my favorite bad angles ever

He'll always be Headbanger Mosh to me - my favorite "random" guy to place bets on or bring up unexpectedly. Most people use Al Snow for that purpose. Me? I'm a Headbanger Mosh kinda guy.

I remember being so happy when the Headbangers reformed in late '99.

it was pretty funny when he broke kayfabe and flat-out called the gimmick stupid, though.

I thought this was just a dark wrestling angle from around the time Russo left (which involved Jimmy Korderas screwing Chaz over in matches because he bought into her claims -- ultimately debunked thanks to the returning Thrasher and a GTV confession).

Vince and his love for pseudo incestuous angles is really bizarre. which Vince? by most accounts McMahon hated the gimmick and only went along with it because Russo thought it was the greatest idea ever. McMahon killed it as soon as he could and it's widely speculated that Beaver Cleavage being dropped is one of the reasons Russo took off. That just sounds like something out of 30 Rock, a writer mad that his incestuous Leave it to Beaver parody wasn't taken seriously.

Beaver Cleavage is the kind of thing that makes you embarrassed to watch wrestling, or should
