    Before the politically correct destroyed entertainment, this tweet would have ignited one hell of a feud between the two of them that would have made for an interesting long term story line. What a waste of a golden opportunity.

    Yeah, maybe the comparison wouldn’t have been so easy to draw if they hadn’t made the Austrian the leader of a heel faction whose mission is to cleanse the ring of things that are not sacred…

    But yes, if social media as we now know it had existed in the 80s or even the Attitude Era (somehow rec.sport.pro-wrestling doesn’t hit quite the same), this would have been a great program.

    Wait. So it’s a surprise Walter/Gunther is patterned after a Nazi officer (not Hitler, like Sheamus implies)? I only started watching the guy from NXT UK, but it was always obvious in pretty much everything he did. Or is it just that the contemporary average person is too limited to realize it?
    I’d tell you who Ilja Dragunov is patterned after, but I’m afraid they may cancel him if word gets out…
