I and an amusing comic book need you're help, Crappers! But this requires some explenation...
Back in Jr. High, I took a series of cartoon art classes that were taught by Mr. Doug Baron, a nice guy who teaches at the prestigious Joe Kubert Art School. He also publishes his own comic book, entitled "Sugar Ray Finhead", which is all about the adventures of an alien who comes to earth to become a professional boxer (I assure you, Doug is not Vince Russo in disguise.) This is a humorous comic, with action thrown in. Even though I have long stopped taking the classes, I remain in contact with Doug.
This is where we need help. I recently convinced Doug to try having Sugar Ray Finhead pull a page right out of Sylvester Stallone's book by taking on a pro wrestler in a gimmick match. Doug's main inspiration for this came from one of the most unlikely of places: the Ultimate Warryah's website. I sent Doug a link, which gave him the idea for his character to take on a steroided out pro wrestler who constantly rants and raves about nonsensical topics using made up words and stops their match to try to shill merchandise with his signature on it.
This is where you come in, RD and my fellow crappers! We need a name for this Warryah clone, one that will be subtle but amusing, and that will make even non-wrestling fans laugh. Lend us a hand!
