I'm just surprised that no one has brought up the worst gimmick in pro wrestling history:
The Gobbledygooker!!!!!!!
The character was portrayed by Hector Guerrero, who was dressed in a turkey costume and "hatched" from an over-sized egg. The egg had been on display at WWF events in the weeks before Survivor Series, and was heavily hyped during promos on the WWF's syndicated and cable programs.
The egg "hatched" to a decidedly negative reception, and was heavily booed by disgusted fans as he began dancing in the ring with announcer "Mean" Gene Okerlund. Play-by-play announcers Gorilla Monsoon and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper tried their best to be enthusiastic, but their true feelings were easily detectable in their voices. Critics were universal with negative reviews, and the character was quickly retired, receiving very few mentions afterwards, and leaving it a mystery if the character was ever even intended for more than short term use.
