he said if anybody got out of line he would lock in the crossface chicken wing...he should have won just based on that alone! I was hoping they would have sent somebody out there to take his mic and escort him to the back only for Bob to go all apeshit and chickenwing his ass right there on the stage. Oh man, that would have been amazing.

Anyone who's ever seen his promos as a face champion in the late 70's early 80's, its hard to believe he would become such a crazy promo guy. He used to be quite possibly the dullest guy around, that mid-90's run did amazing things for his character.

Seriously, what a guy and a legend! Give him a legends contract (if he already hasn't got one?) and put him on tv every week! We need more of Backlund in WWE (and the world!), always loved him and his insanity. Vote Backlund to reopen 'Merica in 2013! Also DOUBLE CORPSE Send for da mansssss

Crazy Backlund is one of the greatest gimmicks assuming if he's actually acting

Ditto. I'm an HBK fan, and I would've voted for Backlund. I'm an HBK fan and I did vote for Backlund.

I loved him on RAW when he was preachy but seeing him now is kind of sad.
The crowd felt a bit awkward about the situation too.
Its also interesting to note that he had a headset on the whole time, something I can not recall ever happening to a sports entertainer conducting a speech to the universe.

Having now seen that Backlund kicked Booker's ass in the polls, I'm pretty sure his insane speech is what achieved it.

I don't miss when "screaming" was the only promo style.

It's even funnier when you think about the fact that Backlund is strictly against drugs and alcohol. That's what a guy whose been sober his whole life can act like.
