There was some Tenta interview in the early 2000s, I'm not certain where. But it was one of those things where he came off as such a decent person that people wanted to like his matches and low and behold, it turns out they were really good after all.

 

it was wrestlecrap, i distinctly remember this somehow

 

also if anything tenta got LESS hate back in the day than most fat guys, though still a lot obv. i think the japan cred helped him with a small section of the smart fanbase

glad I'm not the only one that remembered the rumor he was going to come back in Spring/Summer of 98 and feud with Austin

Yup, it was Wrestlecrap. I distinctly remember this because this was where I first learned that the "snake" in Jake's bag when 'Quake crushed it was "panty hose stuffed with hamburger meat".
