My Take
Fred Ottman is the kind of wrestler I have a real soft spot for. As Tugboat he was a friendly giant in Hulk Hogan's corner, and as Typhoon he turned heel and won tag gold with Earthquake as The Natural Disasters. He was never the marquee name, but at 190 cm he was exactly the dependable big-man babyface that made the WWF's early-90s shows work. People sometimes dismiss that era's supporting players, yet I think the business runs on craftsmen like him. A Virginia-born gentle giant who did honest, valuable work, and I respect it.
