I don't know why Tiny Tim is on Monday Night Raw, but what the hell, you take what you can get for musical acts.

That was incredibly surreal. Why doesn't anyone ever talk about that segment?

When Tim died a few years later, RAW ran a clip of that segment as a "tribute". But like Robocop vs the Horsemen, you just feel saner not thinking about certain things.

He was on Laugh-In a few times and his rendition of "Tiptoe Through the Tulips" is distinctly memorable. I do not know why Vince McMahon decided that he needed the guy on Raw.

For extra credit, look up "Santa Claus Has Got The AIDS This Year". He was always in a whole other ZIP code than the rest of us.

Ok, I take that back. Tiny Tim is Weird Al if he was trying WAY WAY to hard.

Not to say that that Tiny Tim didn't put a lot of effort into what he did, but from all accounts he was genuinely more than a little off-center.

Jerry Lawler's house has a room full of Coca-Cola memorabilia and another room with a Gone With the Wind theme, and his fridge is full of all sorts of crap of dubious origin. I think the King might be a goon.

fake edit: Christmas lights in the bedroom :stonklol:

My favorite part of the tour of his house is when he stops at a painting of a 2 year old on a beach and says that he painted that picture.

Man, Owen was so awesome. Such a shame how that ended up. I was always a huge fan of his. Bret was always my favorite in the WWF during this period and this Wrestlemania match is still one of my favorites ever. I remember watching it live like it was just yesterday.

Well, if I remember correctly, I think Owen won the King of Kings triple threat match, and HHH had said once that Owen was going to be "the Game."

Lex and Bret both won the rumble so they had a weird system where Lex vs Yoko for the title and then Bret vs the winner but he fought owen first so both men would have wrestled twice.

Yeah, just thinking about all the Owen matches that could've happened with Eddie and Jericho, etc just adds another level of sadness to his death. There's probably some Japan or Mexico stuff, but it woulda been cool to see in WWE. And y'know, have Owen be not dead. That too.
