Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart is best known as 1/2 of the tag team The Hart Foundation with Bret Hart. However, he's not as well known in a failed gimmick where he wrestled under a mask for a very short time. By what name did Neidhart go by as this masked wrestler?

WHO. In 1996 Neidhart came to the ring in a yellow mask and was introduced as WHO. This prompted then commentator Vince McMahon and Jerry Lawler to try to reproduce Abbot & Costello's Who's on First? Thankfully the gimmick was scrapped and Neidhart returned as The Anvil once again when Bret Hart formed the New Hart Foundation. (My thanks to Wrestlecrap.com for some of the information provided)

After some success in WCW and a brief stint in ECW, Steve Austin finally made it to the WWE in 1995. Before becoming the beer swilling, bird flipping, butt kicking redneck everyone came to know and love, Austin was managed by Ted Dibiase and was handed the "Million Dollar" championship belt. Oddly, he rarely if ever spoke. By what name did Austin go by before becoming "Stone Cold"?

The Ringmaster. Before shaving his head completely bald, Austin came into the WWE as "The Ringmaster" and was managed by "The Million Dollar Man" Ted Dibiase. Dibiase even gave Austin his "Million Dollar" championship belt. Austin feuded with Savio Vega for a short time and, according to "kayfabe" purposely lost to Vega in a match that had a stipulation that if Austin lost, Ted Dibiase would leave the WWE.

Dustin Runnels grew up in a wrestling family as his father is the legendary Dusty Rhodes. Dustin debuted as himself in the WWE as well as in WCW. When Dustin returned to the WWE, he re-debuted wearing a gold body suit, platinum blond wig, and entered the ring with gold confetti falling as the enigmatic Goldust. After years of success in the WWE, he returned to WCW and was set to debut as someone who stalked children. Thankfully, this gimmick was dropped as quickly as it debuted. What was the name of Dustin's new gimmick?

Seven. After leaving the WWE, Dustin re-signed with WCW and was featured in little vignettes showing him in creepy white face and a long dark coat terrorizing children like a boogeyman. Then on an episode of "WCW Monday Nitro", Dustin floated to the ring, landed in the center of the ring, and then proceeded to do a "shoot" promo trashing the new gimmick and telling everyone he was not going though with the Seven gimmick because he was tired of being a clown. In reality, The Turner Company who at the time owned WCW decided that the gimmick of someone stalking children was a tad too creepy and decided to drop it. Runnels eventually returned to the WWE as Goldust.(My thanks to Wrestlecrap.com for helping with some of the above info)
