- The biggest idiot in wrestling history, a man who got progressively dumber every year. Some people think the answer is Vince Russo, but I say oh contraire my little hare! We're going back to my old style of video, lets have some fun and not be too serious for a change!

Wait what
I just found your channel and I can't understand why you don't have at least ten times the number of subscribers you have. You're hilarious and your videos are well done and never seem to drag. You have great pacing, unique/interesting video concepts, proper mix of humor and information, great callbacks and running gags and the appropriate disdain for Jeff Jarrett.
@@shielplays6194 he was managing AJ Styles for a couple weeks but he got replaced when AJ moved to RAW/
But when will he do a Buried Alive Match?

Abyss had so much damn potential to be a main eventer. So sad, sometimes people are loyal to the wrong cause.
He had a great tna career
In Abyss’ defense, 2006 was when TNA was at its absolute peak, and there was no guarantee he would’ve gotten a sustained main event push in WWE.
I’m not so sure if Vince would’ve handled the character properly either. But it’s not really possible to be handled worse than tna did
laclippersallday If anything Vince would’ve given Abyss the Fake Kane gimmick that ultimately went to Luke Gallows. And we all know how well that turned out.
@@GhostofMcNabb What character? There's nothing... Abyss is just the pre-set, generic, "big crazy guy" heel that you build a character on top of. But anyway, we all know Vince wasn't looking at character when he was out looking for the bigness.
Abyss was one of the nicest wrestlers I ever met, but it’s hard to argue with a lot of these points...
Nice people are good at being bad. We release the beast when we act like dicks.
I met Abyss in 2006. Nice guy and he stayed in character the whole time. "I was at a meet and greet for a tna/uwf show.
One of the guys I used to work with went to OU with Abyss, and told me an epic story about Skyline Chili. They all went to Skyline and Abyss spent his last $5 on a 3-way but put the hot sauce on and couldn't eat it 😄
@@generallordjowbra8871 what's a 3 way?
Horror Fiend chili three ways bruh. Nasty Natti special
To be fair, the same thing happened to Kane, from a scary violent and destructive wrestler, to a bastardized goofball.
Kane was still taken seriously as a competitor. Team Hell No and dancing with Santino were his lowest points but he was still intimidating as Corporate Kane. Abyss, on the other hand, was never able to fully recover sadly. His run in Decay wasn't even intimidating.
@@empressink_ team hell no wasn’t anywhere near his low point n corporate kane was a joke
@@empressink_
Kane wrestling in suit pants and elbow pads was intimidating?
@@empressink_ “Corporate Kane was intimidating”, lol riiight! An old man in a suit who looks like a high school principal was intimidating to you?
But somehow kane very good moments and decent title runs meanwhile Abyss was slowly losing credibility because he always somehow end up being manipulated
Choke slamming a rat might be the greatest thing i have ever heard. ECW missed the boat on that one.
they would piledrive them instead
The people in the ECW Arena would of torn that gimmick apart
@@Jeff-ok6dr Wish it would have happened purely for the quality of the chants we would be looking back on now
The old school NWA rule was if you were a champion that lost by DQ, you also lost the title.
That was funny shit, when you said he was kidnapped but didn't lose any weight!
His captors were feeding him good
@@JGD185 Must be the same ninjas who kidnapped Samoa Joe
I had called Abyss in 2006 declined my offer I was planning to make him next kane this is what happens when you decline me
I thought Abyss was one of the best and most entertaining things about TNA. His decision to stay with TNA can be called idiotic in hindsight. But nothing about this video shows that Joseph Parker is an idiot; he had idiot booking.
Agreed. This guy just doesn’t understand the business and thinks he’s cool for shitting on good workers/gimmicks. Abyss is easily one of the best gimmicks TNA has ever developed. He’s also a very nice and respectful person to meet before a show. He gives great advice to young talent like myself.
Excessive loyalty can be idiotic.
I mean even AJ Styles who had a relative good booking left.
I was not a hard core TNA fan but watched during the time of the Joseph Park gimmick and thought it was entertaining as hell. The thing with Abyss though is that it kinda came off as a poor man version of the Undertaker or Kane. A lot of the TNA guy's were criticized back in the day for being too focused on the work rate, Abyss himself wanted to do hardcore stuff to the point but after a while that stuff really doesn't have shock value anymore and I think Abyss went well past that point.
That being said the Joseph Park stuff was brilliant, easily the most fun gimmick at the time and was something the crowd easily got behind. I really think he should've stuck with that even longer than he did, and it's largely the booker's fault that they couldn't do more with the gimmick.
It's commendable how loyal Abyss was to TNA but in wrestling it's rarely make sense to stick with one company unless you're a top guy - which Abyss sadly was not. He was more of the guy that put top guy's over. Simply being loyal to the company that keeps you in a midcard spot rarely ever translates into someone becoming a legit main eventer.
I think he called Joseph Parker and idiot for not taking the deal to do hardcore matches that cut his career in half compare him to someone like Kane or taker who he was a direct rip off of they both had lengthy careers and still able to function better he did with and overall better career in the end abyss did more work for less he could been a real star or at the very least back in tna with more star power to help that company as the guy who took taker to the limit at mania him turning down wwe for loyalty to a company that loves guys who comes from wwe is pretty idiotic but to each their own
One thing I have to say about him is that he was where he wanted to be. He was in a place that he could express his creativity and sometimes that is more important than money to creative people. He could have gone and done big numbers in WWE but he would’ve been a robot. He enjoyed where he was, he was making enough to support himself, and people are still talking about him today.
Nobody talks about him
Speak for yourself
If he would have just done that match at Wrestlemania & gone back to TNA., he'd have been a main eventer by default going by TNA standards back then.
He’s been working for wwe for years now
I gotta disagree with you about when Abyss had the chance to go to WWE.
His loyalty to TNA was well placed. In those years, TNA always seemed to be on the cusp of turning the next corner and becoming bigger.
On the flip side of things, WWE had alot of ill will from the fans and everyone knew instinctively that Abyss would be fed to Undertaker and then he would be so poorly used that his stock would drop to 0.
ah no Vince loves monsters it wouldn't be Zero low yeah but zero no TNA is so bad being in the bottom of WWE is way better than in middle to top of TNA
@@vegetalover9297 idk if you were around at the time dude but there was absolutely no faith at all that WWE would treat Abyss right. On TNA Abyss was a centerpiece with AJ, Samoa Joe, Jarrett, Daniels, AMW... People had goodwill towards TNA and every month it felt like TNA was getting more and more momentum.
I would have done the same thing as Abyss. TNA was a good choice because for years after that TNA was going up and there's more meaning to be a part of something growing and becoming something rather than going to become another cog in a machine that doesn't really need you.
Always in retrospective we know if somebody fucked up or not.
Respectfully disagree. Around that time, Vince heavily pushed monster characters. He wouldn't have been fed to Undertaker, who had been putting over monster heels like Mark Henry and The Great Khali.
@@evangelus3289
Abyss won his first title match via DQ and then lost the title in a three way elimination match where he was the first guy eliminated.
That’s all you need to know how bad his TNA run was.
Kinda sad that a promising character like Abyss was wasted.
It's a shame Abyss didn't get one match in WWE. Even a one off in NXT like Liger and Storm.
Well he does work for WWE as a producer now, maybe Abyss could make a one off appearance someday?
Hawk Hogan show, best thing going on right now.
Agreed! I always laugh myself silly on those! Especially the sight of Hogan's head pasted onto the hawk's body, lol.
The dumbest I ever saw Abyss was when him and Matt Morgan were a team and James Storm told him that Quagmire from the show Family Guy was going to invite him and Morgan out for a beer at the drunken clam or something like that and he abandoned Matt Morgan for a match to go find Quagmire; and when he told Matt Morgan he was looking for Quagmire to invite them all out for a beer, Matt goes off on him that that's a cartoon character.
Is this real? This can't be real.
@@jamesb1988 Yes this happened on an episode of Impact Wrestling.q
I wish I remember this 😂
Abyss as the Hogan fanboy (and a little earlier) was just Eugene but we have to think he's dangerous cuz he wears a mask?
Also, the Hogan fanboy gimmick was never gonna get him over
Lmao, yeah, that had to be the dumbest thing they ever did with Abyss! I guarantee you that it most likely was 100% Hogan's idea, lol! 😂😂😂
I'm thinking that He was more like Evad in WCW but yeah: The Hogan fanboy years of Abyss were the worst years of Abyss.
@@PrinzPassionsfrucht Evad but he wanted to destroy himself in HardCore matcheds
"If he hit anyone properly, they would die."
That made my morning.
Monday night war is awesome keep them going.
as a lifelong Abyss-A-Maniac... You are not wrong in the slightest.
The issue you have with the Monday Night War series, you can thank TH-cam’s idiotic programming... the videos are great, if you can figure out the issues... you’ll be fine
Raymond Radford Thank you, the TH-cam algorithm hates me
Yes, please keep this series going. I love your channel!
Loved Decay. He was beautiful.
One of the last few good factions in TNA
The most idiotic imo was Kevin Sullivan booking Benoit to date Sullivan's own wife in kayfabe, and it evolved into a real life engagement. He booked away his own marriage.
Buddy Ravage that was incredibly dumb but Abyss was dumb for years!
@ً I hope you know what happened next
That is just the tip of the iceberg.
i really like abyss, but when he collapsed with janice in his back i literally burst out laughing
Don’t disagree with a single bit of this, but like Paul Wight and stints in Kane’s career, he deserves an absolute shit-ton of credit for soldiering on and working his ass off regardless of how awful the material might have been.
The Abyss Joe Parker split personality story was underrated as hell. As for him appearing in the same segment, Foley did the same and nobody ever questioned it.
"Have you seen my brother, Chris? You know..."
Joseph Park puts his hand at his own exact height, trying to show Abyss is tall. Joseph Park is ALSO tall.
"...Abyss?"
The Giant (Big Show) won his first title by DQ
Christian won the World Heavyweight championship from Randy Orton via DQ as well.
Main event push against Undertaker? You mean one Mania match & then being on Heat for a year until it went off the air & then get released? Huge improvement.
What if they gave Abyss the monster push of 96 Mankind against Undertaker. Have him interfere in Undertakers match at Mania causing a DQ finish keeping the streak intact and give Abyss huge wins on following PPV's making the Undertaker seem weakened and take him off TV then have the big match at the following years WrestleMania putting the emphasis on the fact that the streak is in real jeopardy. In the build up have Abyss seem unstoppable have him beat big name former champions in squashes in the lead up and have Abyss super confident in the fact that Taker has never beat him maybe have Taker interfere in a title match before Mania but keep Abyss undefeated giving a reason for Abyss to face maybe Ministry of Darkness Undertaker having turned to the darkside being the only way to beat Abyss and keeping Abyss strong in defeat. But that wouldn't happen because Abyss isn't a VINCE McMAHON creation but could of been a good storyline like the year long Rock vs Cena build
@@bryannicholls200 Alright settle down dude
@@bryannicholls200 that Mankind monster heel run was gold. He was legit scary beating everyone on his path. I remember him at one stage having a 3-0 win loss record against The Undertaker & commentators would often bring that up in the commentary just like how they would constantly remind fans on how Shelton Benjamin beat Hhh 3 matches in a row a few yrs later.
But then he could just go back to TNA and constantly be in the world title picture because he’s an ex WWE guy now
@@bryannicholls200 Or maybe make him face Batista in a Monster vs Animal Match.
christian beat orton by dq to win the title in 2011
That was a stipulation tho. Was is the same way for the abyss match?
how else could someone win the title by dq?😂
@@gino9206 it was a stipulation that Christian put up
@@gino9206 abyss' win was like Rollins-Wyatt HIAC last year, but also give the belt to Wyatt for it
indyalmighty ...that wasn’t a DQ.
Abyss championship win feels like when Kane was champion, though Abyss at least kept it longer than one day.
Lol, pretty much every Abyss storyline is some lame ripoff of a Undertaker/Kane/Mankind story
Abyss was the knockoff Kane.
@@Tony-fq5bn Except the Joe Park gimmick. I can't even call it a Three Faces of Foley rip-off, because the Three Faces knew they were the same person.
@@tafua_a The Joe Park gimmick was more like Corporate Kane than 3 faces of Foley, although Im not sure if Joe Park or Corporate Kane came first
@@Tony-fq5bn Corporate Kane came before Joe Park, but TNA did the split personality thing before WWE did. In WWE, Corporate Kane became a split personality from Demon Kane in 2015, and Kane knew exactly they were the same person, while in TNA Joe Park didn't know he was Abyss
I thought Khali or Big show got dumber by the years. Big show went through heel and face turns too many times and that sumo match ruined him. Khali was a believable giant but his inability to talk and movement kept him from being a star plus he became the dancing idiot being paired with Natalya and got eliminated the worse way
Idc what anyone says abyss run from 2005 to 2009 was epic after that his character kinda too a turn for the worst.
No...Abyss has always sucked.
His decay run was his last good stint.
To be fair, when Abyss was offered the WWE deal - WWE hadn't really had and TNA guys come in, or if they did they didn't do any good.
To quote Bryan Alvarez, isn't it ridiculous for TNA management to use Hulk Hogan's WWE Hall of Fame ring to giving Abyss "superpowers"? Why would TNA management want to put over another company's Hall of Fame ring like that?
One last thing to add, just because you're going to get told you're going to get a big push and then you're going to have a main event match with Undertaker at wrestlemania does not mean it's going to work out or that you're going to have big things happen for you; look at all the wrestlers that we're going to get a big push and nothing happened for them.
True Vince changes his mind like the wind changes direction
I'm not sick of the Monday Night War series. I love them
A 9 year old as daddy.... Yeah in America even this is possible
They would be a Grandfather if it was in Dundee
You can’t have a kid at 9 dummy
I'm pretty sure the Quebecers beat the Steiner's in a DQ finish for the tag titles in 1994 but that could of been in a gimmick match
Deep cut. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
When it happens it is usually announced beforehand, or in the case of The Giant (Big Show) winning against Hogan due to DQ was some bullshit "we slipped it in the contract"
@@AnArchyRulzz In TNA, the belt could officially change hands via DQ in all title matches. This was silly considering how many times Jeff Jarrett got away with hitting people with guitars while the ref was KOed though.
The DQ Stipulation is a Shoot or part of a StoryLine or at least that is what I found out in the Internet.
I've truly been looking forward to this. Let the idiot contest begin. Also love the Monday Night War stuff. You're really funny to be honest. Gotta love TNA during the "war" just being 1999 WCW with even older WCW stars pushed to the top
Yup sting started roaming the rafters as soon as Hogan arrived.
Not to be “that guy”, but Abyss definitely isn’t 6’10”
He was always billed as 6’8”, but is probably closer to 6’5”-6’6” irl
6'6" max.
He's 6'5"
Yeah that’s funny cuz when I saw these clips I noticed he wasn’t really towering over anyone
@@flecc4474
I agree, he must be enormous irl but so are many pro wrestlers. I would definitely put him at 6'5 now, his large fat frame and poor posture make him look shorter but Abyss is a legit 6'5 or even 6'5 1/2 in his younger days.
I was surprised at how shorter than Tyrus he was though.
A little harsh on the I'm Beautiful version of Abyss, the Decay was freaking awesome and he was a big part of why they were, I had actually started watching TNA again because of them and the Broken Hardy's.
The Monday Night Wars segments are excellent but I enjoy the one offs as well
Great video as always please continue with the Monday night war videos they’re really good
"The idiot abyss" 😂
Abyss 04 to 06 was legitimately scary i loved TNA then. Such a shame he didn't go to WWE. Went from a feared monster to Festus lol
Hogan lost his belt at Halloween Havoc 95 when Jimmy Heart caused the DQ. The Giant didn’t win the belt but Hogan still lost it
I'm pretty sure they sti count that as a title win for big show in wwe history books
Hart
I’m watching this video in the future and it’s crazy to hear you say you were hoping to get to 10k subs. 3 years later and you almost have 15 times that number. And much deserved.
I love this channel. I recently found it maybe 2-3 weeks ago and I’m seriously watching every video you’ve made.
Thank god this channel continued. Love all your content dude. For sure my most watched TH-cam channel right now. Keep it up dude, I love it all
Make more videos of big idiots in wrestling because this one about abyss was just solid
I actually feel bad for the guy.. seems they took advantage of his loyalty.. maybe he wasn't that good in the ring or maybe they made him think that.. just needed someone to put other wrestlers over without an argument..who knows
Hey markyd I know you may never see this comment and that's ok but I just had to let you know as a fellow Englishman who has most likely tried and failed at TH-cam that you are genuinely one of the most entertaining people I watch at the moment if not the most case in point I'm literally sitting here quite drunk and out of everything I want to watch your videos you are amazing brother keep up the good work
Open the skull and tell me what you see... "Dr it's just a giant Abyss!!" lol
AWESOME video
8:23 : I *REALLY* fucking hate you for that pun 🤣🤣🤣
9:37 as an irish Literature critic once said:" You need a basic grasp of John Steinbeck novels to host a Wrestling Show."
There was one match that change titles do to a DQ. Money inthe Bank 2011 Randy Orton versus Christian for the World Heavyweight Championship. If Orton got disqualified Christian will be awarded the belt. Which he did he kicked Christian with a low blow after getting spit in the face by Christian
Found your channel after a all night youtube rabbit hole plunge.. love it! Subbed brother! Great escape from all the dumb shit going on on this shit hole we are stuck on hahaaa
Yup and unlike all the other mainstream wrestling channels this is actually funny with some dark edgy humor/jokes just my type of content
I don't mind the Monday night war episodes its often a highlight of my subscription feed.
I also don't think he forgot to wrestle he just never knew how to. Im kidding slightly
This is the greatest channel in the history of TH-cam
Tyler H glad you’re enjoying it!
@@Markyd123 please keep making fun of TNA.
Bruce Prichard and Eric Bischoff have said they love Abyss, just not the Abyss gimmick.
The Idiot Abyss should have been his legit name
I love the Monday night wars series keep it going
You're more entertaining than whatculture wrestling and deserve more subs.
Anything to do with freaking Barbed Wire and Thumbtacks mark those in the stupid bumps categories especially when he would get Sandwiched in that stuff
Giant v hogan halloween havoc 95 ended in a dq title win for giant.
If I remember correctly, The Giant (Big Show) Won his first WCW Heavyweight title by DQ from Hulk Hogan after Hulk's manager Jimmy Hart changed the contract without Hogan knowing so that he could lose the belt by DQ, and since Jimmy was still Hulk's manager when he broke up the final pinfall and hit the ref, the DQ win was in favour of the Giant, giving him the belt. Admittedly the tite was made vacant the next night but still.
GrandMasterScottay Still counts.
That’s the stat always used with Show, even as recently as this Monday.
@@TimTE01 Very true, although we all know the real reason was to get the belt off Hogan so that he wouldn't have to do the job so that it would be up for grabs at World War 3 that was a month later.
Yeah, & that was Paul "Giant/BigShow" Wight's first ever match, lol.
Loved the play on Cultaholic's "What Happened to That Wrestler?"
I gotta say, Ring of the Hawk is EASILY my favourite segment from this channel. I think it'd do that segment good to do an extra-long video with a wrestler that had closer to 60 matches. It would be a huge undertaking but I would definitely check it out. I'm sure the rest of the shuvit squad would too.
Abyss was a helluva character and a great hand in TNA. He wasn't booked the best, though I would argue that he was booked well for a big man at the time. He - like Big Show - could disappear for a bit and reappear later to get his heat back. The main problem with Abyss was that TNA never fully capitalized on this. They only ever jobbed him out without ever letting him get a big win. This kind of booking diminished "the monster" and essentially made him just another guy. Chris Parks was a pretty damn good wrestler throughout his run in TNA and I did enjoy seeing him on television. I wish he had a proper sendoff and they used him in a way where he could help others get over.
Abyss could be compared to Dolph Ziggler. Kind of over, never given that full-push and used to elevate other talents.
Abyss had a chance to work with the Undertaker at Wrestlemania and turned it down . Wow !
I’m pretty sure that main event push WWE promised along with the contract was a load of shit.
love the channel just found it a few days ago and im hooked!! I make videos myself but cant seem to find my footing like you did!!
That opening was beautiful I wished it went on for longer
Monday night war is perfect brother keep it going trust and abyss was cool at times and the Joseph park story actually was not bad in my opinion and Hogan is the goat but the Hogan and abyss had to be the worst.
The Undertaker is the only 'monster' to keep his aura for an extended amount of time and even he deviated from it for a few years with his biker gimmick.
Bro do more of these idiots of wrestling..god knows their is an endless supply.would like 2 see some of the idiocy behind the scenes decisions mixed with on screen stuff.like a hogan type.but maybe some we havnt heard of b4
He was trying to get to 10,000 and now you're over 135,000! Keep it up! Love the content
abyss was absolute garbage ... even for tna standards
True story brother
The giant technically won the World title by dq due to a stipulation in hogans contract. Also really love the Monday war series.
chase gray man that sounds like a clusterfuck
Lol, yes, that did happen. I remember that!
He is a legend in terms of tna wrestling. One of their OGs. If he left tna and went to Japan, ROH or WWE then he woundnt have the legacy he has now.

The Idiot Abyss is gonna fill your nest with thumbtacks and the the Hawk will be grounded like mold on a log.
Abyss just wasn't legit with whatever character they tried to push.
Not true
I fucking hate Abyss’ 2014 Mask.
Even Aldo Montoya’s was better.
Abyss was a carbon copy of Mankind!!! He was like a mix of Mankind and Kane, but mostly a cheap copy!!!
Yeah only had to see his picture not even him in motion or anything to see that. Lol I didnt know they even did a I'm your dad kane storyline with him jesus.
I think Decay Abyss was the best version imo. That should've been his mega push year. I mean it definitely should've been earlier than that but the Decay was just awesome. Well now that I think about it. That's probably cause how great rosemary was at carrying the group
The 2015 mask looks like he ordered a Demon Kane costume off of Wish
Awesome video on a mixed bag, sir. Keep it up
Love the monday night war vids
The Quebecers won the WWF tag titles from the Steiners by DQ in a Canadian rules match.

If he'd gone to wwe , even if he'd got fed to Undertaker .. he'd have been buried in a month and throw into the low mid card with a dancing gimmick or something dumb like it
Think this is the first ever intro I’ve replayed. We didn’t start the fire 🔥
The "What Happened to that Wrestler" intro had me dying bro😭 that caught me off guard and I had to check what channel I was watching again 💀
I'm gonna put these on a impact group on Facebook
Dan hill thanks mate that would be appreciated! Need all the help I can get!
@@Markyd123 im a couple of impact groups so I'll put them on
The X division introduced a weight limit, and Abyss was too fat
i died
Did WWE really considered him for that match against the Undertaker at WM?
Yeah they really did abyss even said himself bc his contract was coming to a end during that time period
3:55 Halloween Havoc 95 had Hogan vs Giant with a DQ title change I think.
Christian vs Orton too
The Giant defeated Hawk Hogan via DQ to win his first WCW World Championship. He was stripped of the title later but it is still counted as a reign for Giant.
I never understood why TNA would push a WWE Hall Of Fame.
they made him seem like a creepy whiny big show based off this video.
Pretty spot on with that description dude
Abyss is what happens when nobody says “that’s a stupid idea”
Unless Abyss Himself Says "That Is The Dumbest Idea I've Ever Heard I Lost Brain Cells Even Thinking About It"
As Pewdiepie once said "he's evolving, just backwards"
Charizard evolving into Squirtle lolol
Anybody that believes that Vince McMahon would have pushed abyss as a main event and put him in a wrestlemania match with the undertaker shouldn’t be talking about wrestling.
I like how well he stuck to the gimmick big dumb monster people can always send in as a goon
