No, the thread title does not refer to her fanbase here in the IWC since she has debuted in TNA. I am referring to a short lived, blink and you'll miss it storyline from the latter days of WCW.
At the time, Daffney was working as a valet for Crowbar. They were hinting that he had a crush on her in various backstage segments, and was building up to confess to her. Then one night some shmo came to ringside during a match and gave Daffney a boquet of flowers, and she screamed something about a "secret admirer." This went on for a few weeks where it was hinted that Daffney had a boyfriend, and it was causing Crowbar to become distracted and lose his matches. They eve showed the guy on television a few times-rather nondescript looking, long hair and a goatee. The remotely sensible thing in the wacky world of wrestling is that this guy was a new wrestler, and this was going to lead to an on air feud and a match over Daffney.
Instead, she vanished for a few months-out with an injury I believe-and the whole thing was dropped overnight. Crowbar went on to become a tag team partner to Mike Awesome, then going through his "70's guy" gimmick and the secret admirer was never heard from again.
So who the heck was that guy? Anyone have even a clue? Outside of appearing at ringside with Daff, I don't think he ever got in the ring even once. Was he even a real wrestler? Just a question I have sometimes wondered about, especially since Daffney is back on television.
