[1990-10-14-WWF-Wrestling Challenge] Interview: Big Boss Man

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Boss Man is over! He does an outstanding interview to get over the emotion of how much he loves his mother, salvaging something watchable out of this incredibly lame feud. The performances have been so good so far in this program, even though the premise has been so bad.

[PeteF3]

Boss Man's voice is cracking as he's gone from being protected by his mother to being her protector. This is a feud with a bad beginning and a bad ending considering BBM/Rude never came off. The performances of Rude and the Boss Man both are crying out for a better premise than this.

Bossman really conveys emotion and does everything he gain to salvage the hokey angle.

[Kevin Ridge]

Big Boss Man puts over his momma for all she has done for him. Go Boss Man. Hard times ahead for Rick Rude.

[garretta]

Bossman's performance here was better than this angle deserved. It was almost like Ray Traylor was talking about his mother, if you know what I mean. It's a shame that we never got a match between Bossman and Rude; in fact, Rude might well have been gone by the time this interview aired. If he wasn't, his last day's coming up soon.

 

Interesting touch that Heenan stayed back in the locker room with Hennig instead of coming out to see this interview in person. Of course, we remember what happened the last time he saw Bossman in person on Challenge, don't we?

Awesome promo by Boss Man. The crowd is behind him and he's fired up about his mom. I really liked this.

Bossman cuts an incredible emotional promo. Something tells me Traylor has all kinds of missed potential when he was in the Big 2. 1990 was a really good year for him and he seems just now like he's overcoming the limitations of his gimmick. I'm sure the Big Bubba gimmick will give him more room to explore what he can do...
