    The funny thing about both Taker and Palumbo's biker run was that both were accused of copying someone else. Taker was accused of copying DOA when in reality that's just Mark's lifestyle outside of the ring and Chuck being accused of copying American Badass when he owns a motorcycle shop and builds them. So really it's not a gimmick for neither men just their real life selves.

    The difference between the Nature Boys is that Ric Flair was beyond the effortless, and he was always flawless with going from face to heel while never dropping the title first.
    The problem with Hogan verses Graham is that Graham actually was denied a face turn, which was the root of why Graham had issues with Hogan.
    Ryback was lackluster at best... and had a ego overgrown past the push he was getting.
    All Savage imitations have been flattery.
    Last but not least, the fake "Razor and Diesel" were deliberate to remind the fans that those were characters, not the real men themselves.

    The Renegade... 🤦😒🙄

    I always felt bad for The Renegade, whose real name was Rick Wilson.
    None of that was his fault. He was actually a male stripper, who was looking to change career paths & make more money (I know the latter was his main driving motivator). He didn’t know much about the business & Bitch-Off, with the rest of the guys running WCW at the time, took advantage of him pretty badly.
    Should’ve never happened, and should’ve been taken off TV & repackaged. He didn’t _ask_ for _any_ of that!
    Then…when it all fell apart, he got severely depressed. He suffered from Depression pretty badly, as is reported at least.
    But, we _do_ know, for a _fact,_ low he had some level of depression. Why?
    Because Rick unalived himself, by way of gunshot to the head. He was hitting financial strife due to not working, & nobody else made him any offers.
    Bitch-Off’s arrogance & nativity pretty much killed that poor guy.
    Renegade (Rick Wilson) was only 33-years old. This happened in 1999. So, it didn’t take all too long, after Warrior showed up in ‘98; & this heartbreaking & tragic life ended.

    I’m surprised that Shark Boy wasn’t featured on this - his SCSA impersonations actually got him over for a short while

    The moniker "The Nature Boy" will always be synonymous with Ric Flair. WOOOOOOOOO.

    You forgot Sharkboy ripping off Stone Cold. And some might even say Samoa Joe is a mini knockoff of Yokozuna.

    Hogan didn't do the tie died bit in his prime (84-93) Flair clear cut stole from Rogers but Hogan didn't directly steal from Superstar but was maybe inspired or influenced by.

    I love how people say Ryback was ripping Goldberg off simply because he's a muscular dude who us bald, like wtf? Is that the entirety of your claim? He didn't do his moveset, didn't dress like him, talk like him, didn't use any if Goldbergs mannerisms... if you're gonna say he imitated Goldberg just because he's a big bald guy, you'd have to say that about every superstar who is just that. I don't like Ryback, but this Goldberg comparison is so stupid

    I think it’s funny that sandow ripped off both of the poffos. Lanny to start and randy at the end
