#2 The Goon

The Goon: Didn't last long in WWE

Whilst WCW had just kicked off the revolutionary and highly successful New World Order gimmick, WWE was debuting The Goon on the July 20 episode of Superstars.

The gimmick heavy WWE explained that the curiously named Goon had supposedly been banned from the NHL due to his violent tendencies and had now been unleashed on WWE!

Although the word goon is associated with the world "fool" and other negative stereotypes, in fairness to WWE, it did fit the character as in Hockey parlance, a goon is a player who is designed to solely take out the oppositions best player.

The Goon failed miserably in that endeavour however, when he was pinned by WWE's best, The Undertaker in under a minute a few weeks after his debut.

The character lasted a few months before WWE saw sense and discontinued the gimmick.
