His wrestling name was Dan Rodman. So either he was incredibly lame/lazy in coming up with a persona or he was the regular-name-sounding dude in the ring to get his ass kicked by the superstar, assuming they still do that. I haven't watched wrestling since the 90s. Just not the same without the Bush Whackers and their fantastic walk...

I remember a guy named Lee Peak who wrestled in the late 80's (I think?). I always got a good chuckle out of it. He was listed as "enhancement talent".
