| #5 Posted on 27.11.02 0253.33 Reposted on: 27.11.09 0259.01 | I just couldn't let this thread pass by without mentioning the immortal Mike Boyette, a jobber whose win-loss record in the UWF was so attrocious it made some fans actually root for him to win just once, and I dunno if he ever did!
Also, if I may, I submit an obscure name I'm sure few know but would perhaps remember in some respect-- Dave Stoudamire. He was a jobber in the WWF around 1990. On one edition of Superstars, Mr. Perfect just made an example out of the poor guy. Hennig had Stoudamire draped over the middle rope facing the camera, talked some stuff, and literally jackslapped Stoudamire in the chops. The WWF later used that footage as a part of their opening credit for either Superstars or Challenge. I had to bring that up, simply because my brother and I would always laugh our asses off when we saw it!
And we cannot EVER forget Mario Mancini, Bob Cook, Kenny Kendall, or Joey Maggs. Especially Iron Mike Sharpe. To do so would be an utter diss toward Canada's Greatest Athlete!

Randy Hogan. The old NWA jobber who looked like a pudgy version of the Hulkster.
Terry Gibbs. Just because this guy was in the first ever match I saw live, of course, doing a fine job.
Buck Quartermaine. I just wanted to type Buck Quartermaine. That's all.
Rocky King recovered from his constant job duty to referee a whole bunch of Worldwide and WCW Saturday Night matches back in 1997 & 1998.
I guess Mark Starr would be my favourite, even though he too picked a win about once a year. It's just something about guys with the last name "Starr" that screams out jobber. | Zaphod

| #12 Posted on 27.11.02 0809.12 Reposted on: 27.11.09 0820.49 | Honorable mention must go to the man with the hardest right hand in professional wrestling history, BOB COOK!!
But the greatest of all time must be Mike Boyette. He damn near beat Shane Douglas but botched a top rope move. I can remember JR saying "Poor Mike, Poor Mike". Hilarious!!
But in lieu of the holiday, I would be remiss if I didn't mention Jake "The Milkman" Milliman, for his team won the Thanksgiving Team Challenge, and took home the prized turkey. Gotta love Verne for his innovation, and the ultimate putting over of a guy who had the late, great Len Staley's goatee before it was ever hip.

I agree. The best 10, in my book:
Iron Mike Sharpe Barry Horowitz Ray? The Milkman (I can't remember his name, but he was jobber extrodinaire in the AWA. His last name was like Milkiman) SD Jones Steve Lombardi (AKA The Brooklyb Brawler & others) Vincent/Virgil Ron Studd (Big man jobber) Lanny Poffo Rip Rogers Koko B. Ware
Stecial note: Great minds think alike: while I was writing my post, another weiner also posted "Jake" The Milkman. How could I forget!

Used to be?
And while they're technically a team of jobbers, I'll throw out the Mulkey Brothers as well because you just can't discuss all time great jobbers without mentioning Bill & Randy Mulkey. | mountinman44

I don't know if we can call the Moondogs jobbers. Didn't they actually hold the WWF tag belts for a while? | Scooter Trash

You are correct sir! The Moondogs were WWF tagteam champs from what appears to have been 3/17/81 to 7/21/81.
I missed out on that era of Moondog greatness and only got to see them in their later years when they were generally jobbing to the stars. |
