I wonder what advertisers thought of Konnan's "tossing salads" and "peeling potatoes" oral sex references Well, ummm..."tossing salds" isn't oral sex.

Nothing like 30-40 year olds acting like high school kids and a year or two too late for it to have been funny or popular in the overall Attitude Era of wrestling.

I hated the Filthy Animals at the time and when I did an in-depth rewatch of that era of WCW a few years ago, I hated them even worse. They just made me cringe.

Man as a kid I thought this stable was dope. Looking back at it man it just didn't make any sense lol. I'm literally watching a promo where Konnan's threatening Nash. Konnan literally said "you get ready to toss our salad and peel our potatoes" before rushing the ring to fight this man lmao. This was a wild time in WCW man. Didn't Konnan say that in TNA too?

Always fun when white male writers tries to make other ethnicities as stereotypical as possible. Just write human beings morons.

Best part about this group is that they knew they were in a bad situation and tried to make the best out of it. They really didn't give a damn what they said.

Could Kidman look any whiter? Sure, Disco Inferno was also a Filthy Animal. Disco was great as a lackey or hanger-on in groups. What an entertaining douche!

I loved the Filthy Animals. I didn't have cable growing up so knowing Spanish I would watch the edited Nitros on Telemundo. I can't speak for others but in Southern California most of the kids who were into WCW were huge fans of Rey Mysterio, Kidman, Booker T and Goldberg rather than guys like Sting/Nash/Hogan/Horsemen etc.
A lot of people ignore how just over Kidman was during this time too. What he lacked in promos he made up for in boyish raw energy. The girls loved him because he was attractive and daring and the boys because the shooting star was sick and the long hair appealed to punks/skaters. Simple as it is that white tank-top/shorts attire is still one of my favorite wrestler looks. The friendship with Rey put him over the top with latinos. He was that white boy that was one of us and was willing to put himself on the line to prove it.

I was watching WCW at the time and I HATED Konnan so much. I found him immensely irritating, and did until LAX.
Side note: this thread is like a Chris Rock stand-up special from 1996

Remember when they buried Ric Flair in the Mojave Desert during Russo's first week in the company? Yeah lmao. Remember the Kid Cam? I mean, I get what they were going for but man in retrospect that's so baaaaadddddddddddd. It doesn't help that Kidman had the personality and promo skills of a bag of rocks.

In the same vein as the “salad tossing” promo, I swear that I have a memory of a Filthy Animals promo on some episode of Nitro or Thunder where Rey also said that they were going to “hump” their opponents.
I have no idea when it was, but I can’t just be making that memory up, can I?

They were a poor mans DX.
Speaking of, never realized how much Russo tried making The Outsiders like DX in late 1999.

I kind have always liked Rey look when they took the mask off and he started using the devil horns and other crazy shit. It was different for him
Konnan tho, sheesh his material has aged real badly and he still does this same shit later. It was wildly popular and what always kept him on TV and you can tell certain people tried to rip his style like Big Poppa Pump but Konnan was saying a whole lot of nothing and was still over lol
