It was silly but I thought Dale the wrestler had potential. He seemed too be a talented big guy.

It was a stupid gimmick and a waste of money to boot.

I get the KISS part but why was he a Kiss Demon? Like why did Kiss need a demon? Granted , They're a rock group who uses hellish images but everyone knows they aren't really Hellords. SO why did they need a demon? And how did they get a demon? Does KISS just have the ability to summon demons? Then why don't they summon an army and take over the world instead of record rock albums?
Why wasn''t he just a guy who really liked Kiss?! What was the point of him being a Demon?

Demon is the character of Gene Simmons in the Band.

Demon is the character of Gene Simmons in the Band. Well that just makes this more mind numbing....Was Dale suppose to be Gene or the character in the bad? and if not , again , why was he a demon? And if he was , how would they explain the Kiss Demon being two places in once or did Kiss agree to never hold a concert on times when the Kiss Demon was wrestling?

Yes, He was supposed to be the Character that Gene is, Which is The Demon. So when the Demon gene played was in concert with Kiss in say Ohio while WCW was on live in Florida....He was in two places at once because he was a magical demon? Yeah...This gimmick is terrible and not even like Chikara's "It's a joke" terrible. I mean I love DDT and watching a ladder when a title. That's funny. There's nothing funny about the Kiss Demon.

I guess you never saw the debut of the Demon where The Demon walked to the ring while Gene and the rest of the band were performing. Also, make sure to check out the video above and watch the rest of the film, especially the ending fight scene where each member of kiss fights an evil version of himself.

As a kid, I always preferred the Evil Kiss version of "Rip and Destroy" over the actual song "Hotter Than Hell." *shrug*

Gene Simmons is a magnificent bastard for getting WCW to foot the bill for THAT.

Bisch wasted a lot of money on those KISS and Master P tie-ins.

I read that they were gonna bring in there other guys to be the Space Man, the Cat, and The Star Child. And they weren't supposed to be the actual band they were just big fans of the band.

The debut of the Demon is also the scene of one of my favourite Tony Schiavone commentaries ever with his "You wanted the best...you got the best" introduction for Kiss when it was clear nobody else gived a damn.

As horrible and super cartoonish as that gimmick was, I enjoyed his rivalry with Vampiro in the dying days of WCW. I even downloaded a CAW of him for WWE '12 and put him on my Nitro/Thunder roster to make it more realistic, lol.

It was a really dumb gimmick but what really killed it, at least in my eyes, was that they announced on air that the Demon was Dale Torborg who had already debuted a few months ago with a "WCW racing pit crew" gimmick and wrecked his knee doing his finisher.
