[8.0] "It was a long time before I *didn't* buy everything this man said. Played the character perfectly. I freakin loved to hate this man, gawd he was so good...at being bad. I still can't get enough of Devastation Inc.! My last memory of him is being carried out of the Sportatorium, kicking and maniacally bellowing "Devastation! DEVASTATION! ". One of the truly great "fitting ends" that most never have the privilege of experiencing! Outside of the ring? A pillar and saint. Rest in Peace."
