In 2003, Kurt Angle was involved in a feud with John Cena, who back then was known as
“The Doctor of Thuganomics”.
In order to humiliate Cena, Angle decided to impersonate him.
Donning a padlock chain, cap and streetwear similar to that of Cena, Angle walked to the
ring with swagger before mocking Cena’s lingo and taunts.
The whole segment was comedy gold but it wasn’t the first time Angle “kicked it freestyle”
with Cena…
Over the years, many have tried their hand at impersonating the boss, Vince McMahon but
all of them pale in comparison to Triple H’s impersonation.
Everything from Vince’s over-the-top billion-dollar strut to the cadence of his voice was emulated
perfectly.
To top it all off… literally…
the segment concluded with the real Vince and Shane McMahon getting showered in waste.
Ahead of his infamous match with Hulk Hogan at SummerSlam 2005, Shawn Michaels appeared
on a Larry King Live spoof dressed as The Immortal, Hulk Hogan.
Michaels made fun of Hogan’s age, mocked his signature poses, called him out on his backstage politicking
and mocked Hogan’s use of the word “Brother” at the end of every sentence all while staying in character.
Heading into WrestleMania 27, all eyes were on John Cena and the returning Rock as opposed
to The Miz who was treated as an afterthought despite being WWE Champion.
So, to shift the spotlight back to him, The Miz came out to the ring as The Rock.
To The Miz’s credit, he captured The Rock’s walk-on down to a tee!
So much so, that the crowd didn’t even realize it was The Miz until he took off his sunglasses.
It was one of The Miz’s finer displays of acting as opposed to one of his movies.
After berating Stone Cold Steve Austin’s home state of Texas, Kevin Owens took it a
step further by coming out to the ring one night as The Texas Rattlesnake complete with
a bald cap and knee braces.
He taunted the crowd and mimicked Stone Cold’s catchphrases but the fun and games didn’t
