I wonder how would had been history if Bob Backlund had the mic skills in the 70s/80s Im not sying that he would had replaced hogan or anything, but maybe he would had a more memorable run after his loss

I love the idea of Bret Hart as a rebellious youth.  |

Some of Bob's babyface promos came off every bit as wacked (albeit unintentionally) as his heel ones. |

The OP is one of my all-time favorite promos, especially the part after his hysteric-driven tirade, when he gets real calm, real serious and real, real good.

And yet still I find him one of the dullest performers ever. Just could not get into him.

So was SRS Jericho just a not-as-insane jack of Mr. Bob Backlund?

Backlund's Pro Wrestling USA promos are done as a defiant cheated babyface but came across as an awesome serial killer heel.

I wish he'd have gotten at least a bit of a run with the belt.
I mean, I was all for Diesel de-throning him too, but they coulda got more mileage outta Crazy Bob: champ.
