Good time as any to mention what a sweetheart of a person Ron Bass Jr. is.

Yeah, the X is what makes it work. That and it's Brutus who just isn't someone you'd expect to be murdered on television.

Bass should've done more, honestly. He would've been a solid presence in the midcard, at least. Outside of the Beefcake feud and a lost classic with Tito on Prime Time I don't remember much.

He has a bunch of matches with Duggan at house shows I bet were fun slug fests.

A little surprising he didn't stick around for a WM 5 spot, but who knows where that would fit in as the card is pretty loaded unless they book some 6 mans like at SSlam 89.

I remember watching Bass vs Beefcake from SNME with my Grandpa on VHS in the early to mid 90s. Grandpa apparently thought some of this nonsense was real yet as while Bass was put out from the sleeper and getting his head shaved, Grandpa said "Well, now he's just pretending to be sleeping. It's been too long"
