Jobbing before it was cool.

Very few of today’s wrestling fans will of heard much about ‘The Baron’ Mikel Scicluna, but in terms of WWE folklore, Scicluna certainly had his share of the limelight. The Baron used to wrestle for the company under its original name ‘The World Wide Wrestling Federation’ (WWWF) in a career that spanned 4 decades.

During this time, Scicluna spent most of his in-ring career as a heel, often using foreign objects to win matches, a practice that used to be far less common back in the 50s and 60s compared with today. This may well be the reason behind such a high number of losses, as the WWE have always been a company that prefers not to see cheaters prosper.

Scicluna was by no means a simple jobber. He would often compete against the likes of Bruno Sammartino and Pedro Morales for the WWWF Championship, although he would never actually get his hands on the title.

Again, fans today might be tempted to read too much into this, but one has to remember that these were the days in which successful title challenges were about as common as Brock Lesnar losses are today. Scicluna did achieve championship success by winning the WWWF United States Tag Team Championships, as well as a few world championship reigns in Australia.

One of the more infamous moments in Scicluna’s career came during a feud with Gorilla Monsoon. After The Baron decided to walk out of the match, taking a countout defeat in the process, Mohammed Ali would venture to the ring to challenge Gorilla in a boxer Vs. wrestler match-up. This was a promo stunt designed to build hype for Ali’s real life bout against Japanese wrestler Antonio Inoki.
