He once defeated Triple H in singles competition. I just love that fact.

The main thing that I remember is him going on about how sinful masturbation is only for Faarooq to say "I'm about to get real sinful on your ass!"

My 9 year old self thought he was going to get a huge push when he managed to beat Triple H.

Didn't Bubba Ray beat HHH around that time as well?

And he introduced us to an obscure figure named Batista who later went in to become world champion and give us photoshop threads beyond our wildest dreams.

Loved his theme
I think a religious gimmick could work, Something like Azreal from Batman......Wait that was Mordecai.
OK a more talented Mordecai type character

Lets not forget this is also how Batista Started, carrying around that Collection Case that people would throw their trash into. Good Times.

Honestly I think had D-Von stuck with Bubba with the former doing the preacher stuff and the latter as his crazed "saved" follower; could have made for a fun heel tag team.

I love that Batista debuted as a random goon to beat guys who try to steal D-Von's collection box.

Eh, it was okay.
I felt the Dudley split was bad at the time, and felt they turned the wrong Dudley heel. Plus, there's only so much you can do with the character, that they were going to allow, so it was pretty much just a short term break for the Dudleys.

I was ticked because I had just debuted the same gimmick in an e-fed a few weeks earlier.
