I have been watching wrestling for 22 years and I never remember seeing this Phantasio guy. I have never even heard of him. I am guessing he only wrestled a couple times. Monsoon and JR are the announcers so I am guessing it might be around 1993. It's at the 2:50 mark
So do you guys remember him or know who he is?

I've heard of him, but he had such a short WWF run at the time, I just never got to see him, that's all.

He must've lasted about as long as Battle Kat, Big Bully Busick and The Renegade.

I didnt watch all of that video. I turned it off when Gillberg was said to be the ninth worst gimmick. I loved that gimmick.

I watched wrestling all the time back then but never seen him wrestle. Also never seen Xanta Claus wrestle except on IYH and don't really remember seeing Battle Kat and Friar Ferguson wrestle.
Why did they even have him if he only wrestled one match?

Why did they even have him if he only wrestled one match? With the exception of celebrities, promotions very rarely sign someone with the intent of them only wrestling one match. Usually, in cases like this, somebody thought it was a good idea, then decided against it after the one match.

He was Spellbinder in USWA. He did weird tricks to mess with his opponents heads, it was fun. He also was part of USWA's Nation of Domination, he changed his name to Elijah.
I was a huge fan of his there, I wish WWE had done something good with him. And not the magic wedgie move...
Last I saw of him was at the first TNA show, he wrestled in the battle royal under his real name. He looked a lot like Scott Steiner.

He wrestled one match and that's it. I saw that match on TV and I remember thinking that he was pretty entertaining. He was pretty much a mime/magician who made fun of opponents by pulling their underwear doing tricks etc. It made sense to have him during the New Generation era so I keep wondering why they didn't use him.
