The leader of the bad guys from the Road Warrior movie. Yeah. While I never saw him wrestle because we didn’t get that in NJ (just WWF, NWA and occasionally the AWA) I do remember seeing him in the various wrestling magazines. But I just wanted to talk about the Road Warrior movie last night. lol |

The leader of the bad guys from the Road Warrior movie. My son, a toddler, was playing with the Neca Jason and took his mask off. Then he put it on the Sid figure. He was playing with it and showed it to me. I smiled because I thought it was funny that Sid wore a similar mask early on in his career. I also know I've seen clips on youtube of a wrestler in Puerto Rico wearing a Jason mask back in the day as well. |

Back in the Memphis Territory, Lord Humongous was a gimmick wrestler in the 80's based on the movie-several no-name, local wrestlers wrestled under the hockey mask with the only notable one being Sid Eudy, Sid Vicious-then Sycho Sid in the WWF...I did a fix-up back in the day, although I could never find a great mask-this one looks good-but needs to be whiter to look like the original. My son, a toddler, was playing with the Neca Jason and took his mask off. Then he put it on the Sid figure. He was playing with it and showed it to me. I smiled because I thought it was funny that Sid wore a similar mask early on in his career. I also know I've seen clips on youtube of a wrestler in Puerto Rico wearing a Jason mask back in the day as well. Leatherface and Jason and weird ripoff gimmicks like that were a common thing in Japan too |

I remember a Humongous in Mid-South. Came to the ring blasting "War Machine" and had decent feuds with Jake Roberts and Terry Taylor. Not sure if was Sid or someone else in the role, but I thought he was a cool Jason Voorhees-type of character. Don't think I'd seen the Mad Max flicks at that point.
Definitely need the Demos S&M straps.

And was the last movie in the original trilogy to feature the last of the v8 interceptors. And the last Tina Turner-less Mad Max until Fury Road Lord Humongous enjoys torturing innocent children in his spare time, long walks through the endless desert while dragging his enemies on a choke chain and at times has been known to be an avid Village People fanatic "I like the way the dress" he said in an interview on Post Apocalyptic TIME magazine. |
