Hey my fellow midcardigans!
Today's specimin is weighing in at alledgedly well over 400lbs and is known as the "Houdini of Hardcore." Yes we are talking about:
Crash Holly
Crash debuted in 1999, showing a tentative relationship with his cousin Hardcore Holly. Eventually these guys won the tag belts from Rock 'n' Sock Connection but Crash only held the belts with his on and off again partner for two weeks.
Crash has also won the european championship and the light heavyweight championship, once each.
But he is most remembered for his hardcore title runs, all 22 of them. Yes Crash became an innovator of the hardcore division, known for creating the 24/7 defence rule, aslong as a referee is there causing all sorts of defences like in a hotel room, backstage and, of course in a childrens' playground:

What really suprises me about crash though, is that being a hardcore wrestler, you expect him to be a brawler and so on, but he worked very well as a chain wrestler and so on, as seen in this match against dean malenko:

All in all, crash was a great light weight wrestler with such a high amount of energy whenever he was involved in something.
But what are YOUR opinions on him? Did you feel he was the peson that destroyed the hardcore title and made it a complete joke with his 24/7 rule?
What about his matches? Did you watch or switch over? Did he deserve his place in the midcard?
Please, pull up a post and tell all...
