My favorite is the one where he's down and pops up and you expect him to give it to his opponent walking towards him but nope, gives it to the ref. loving genius.

Great Kanyon moment is when he and Shane Douglas are about to be in a tag match and they cut a promo where they disagree over who is going to get the win with which finisher. Shane storms off at the end and Kanyon looks all sneaky with his hands prepared for a Cutter. Then off-camera you hear, "Don't even think about it, Kanyon!" and Kanyon deflates. Edit: Beaten

Is what happened to Kanyon the most depressing story of an incredibly talented wrestler's demise where it was through no fault of their own? From what I understand, once he got to WWE, he was bullied for being gay, and then his bipolar disorder(?) eventually got the best of him and he committed suicide after his release. That segment where he was forced to jump out of a cake in drag, sing, then get the poo poo kicked out of him by the Undertaker is loving disgusting.

Watching Royal Rumble 92 and uh one of the Bushwackers just licked a kid's face in the audience somewhat forceful looking. I guess my question is, what the gently caress?

Yeah it's the kind of thing nobody would (or should) do nowadays but it absolutely was not a sexual thing and fans loved it. If you're watching it now for the first time (as the guy who originally brought it up did) then it's completely understandable you'd go  but it's just a sign of how different things were back then. The Bushwhackers were considered fun, family entertainment and a great draw for kids.

Yes, I watched wrestling back then. And I'm not saying it was sexual. But it's still a grown man licking the face of a child, not shaking their hand or patting them on the back. My point is, why would you take that chance in the first place? What happens if a parent took offense to it and punched Butch in the face? Would people run out and say "Hey, this is all in the context of wrestling, stop spoiling the show for everyone else!"

It would own so much when he flashed back to the Sheepherders days and carved that dad up. People on twitter are saying that maybe it is in fact kind of weird so maybe it is. I just remember kids from that era being loving thrilled if stuff like that would happen.
