My Take

Fandango taught me how much a gimmick can outgrow the wrestler wearing it. When the Boston-born Curtis Hussey debuted as a deadpan ballroom-dancing heel, the crowd hijacked his entrance theme into a stadium-wide singalong, and a phenomenon was born. That a name and a tune can become more legendary than any move says everything about pro wrestling as theatre. I admire the nerve it takes to commit fully to a character that absurd with a straight face. Now working as a producer for TNA, he is shaping the next generation, and I respect that blend of showmanship and behind-the-scenes craft.
