Hi all, I think it was on WWE Vintage last week or the week before but it showed Demolition's Smash (Barry Darsow) on the front row from a WCW show in the mid nineties. Can anyone shed further light of his time in WCW and did they try to do a take on Demolition at all (i.e. get Crush (or Ax) in to team with him)? Thanks guys  |

as in being in his Demolition attire?
I remember Darsow interrupting matches by blowing a horn but he was in his blacktop bully persona.

Didn't he have a golfer gimmick as well? as in being in his Demolition attire? I remember Darsow interrupting matches by blowing a horn but he was in his blacktop bully persona. |

The original plan was to have him called "Stewart Pain" (as a play on words of the pro golfer named "Payne Stewart"), but they changed it for some reason. One of the worst gimmicks EVER! |

Ah, "Mr. Hole In One."
Did he team for a short time, in WCW with John Nord aka The Berserker, as well, when he was just plain Barry Darsow?

Payne Stewart died in a plane crash in 1999 I think. I know he was using the gimmick around 98-99. It was likely changed after Stewart died.
