Rants

Borne question

By Scott Keith on 29 June 2013

So, with Matt Borne dead – and that's the story, don't get me wrong: RIP Matt Borne, he was fun to watch, did some interesting things with the gimmicks that got dumped in his lap – I have to ask: does this put a damper on guys getting the costume and going around the indies as Doink?
I'd say no because, let's face it, this is wrestling we're talking about here. Plus there's been so many other people playing the character since then that it's become kind of a generic gimmick anyway.
I tell ya though, the more people that die from the 80s coke party era, the more I wonder how Hogan and Flair have made it this long given how much stuff went up their noses for the better part of 20 years.
