I'd like to meet the person who decided it would be a good idea to have a man spit a mouthful of live worms into another man's mouth. Actually, I take that back. I'm not at all interested.
The Boogeyman is a very dark, vile character, one who's sole purpose is to terrify you.
This notion was successful, as The Boogeyman scared kids and adults alike, all over the world. Everything from his entrance, the way he walked, talked, down to his actions inside the ring, it all came together perfectly to create the most disturbing persona ever known.
The Boogeyman didn't need championships in order to fulfil his purpose. All he needed, was fear and the elusive shock value, which he had an abundance of.

About the author
J. Carpenter
Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
