Anyway this isn't going to be about what it's like being an inanimate superhero clock... well at least not all the time. No this time I thought maybe we would talk about some of the things I wanted to be. I didn't just wake someone up one morning and then go, ''I'll be a superhero!'', You know? No I've wanted to be all sorts of things.
For instance I wanted to be a pro wrestler. Let's talk about that time. It was back in '96. Y'see I had a meeting with Ted Turner the big honcho at WCW (World Championship Wrestling) and they had just started this badass new faction called the NWO. It was going to be me, Scott Hall, and Kevin Nash. Well first they decided that I needed beard stubble so I'd look manly.
Well I thought I looked manly enough but oh well why not. I stopped shaving. Then a mustache...Fine I grew one.Then it was hair. So I bought a wig. I wore the sunglasses,I even spraypainted NWO on my face (clockface that is)...
I did a few house shoes (small time gigs), and dark matches (unaired matches before a show begins) as a luchador called Senior Alarmo and watched in expectation as they started talking about the NWO's mysterious third member. I was all set I was even going to meet Hulk Hogan. He's been an idol of mine since I was like... two. But anyway I was loving it. I was making friends backstage. I even hung with the Nitrogirls.
(It's a little known fact that Che amd I had a few flings)
But come time for my big ppv debut at Bash at the Beach,I found that I had been (pardon the expression) screwed! They jumped me and brought in Hogan instead!
He even stole my look! I was devasted. He rechristened himself Hollywood Hulk Hogan and made himself into an even bigger star. Me I made my way to the unemployment line. Che even dumped me. Oh well. See you guys next time.
