Mr. Cock A Doodle Doo

A wrestler with no build, minimal ability in the ring and the most uncanny mask known to man,  Mr. Cock A Doodle Doo not only had some matches in Arizona in the 1990s, but made it as far as Indies in Ohio and New Jersey, as well as the Mexican border.  He was great on the mike at least and could talk up a storm. This was his fortress.

He would always speak of himself in the third person and with the most grating voice he could muster, like a cartoon rooster speaking in a half-crow.

But then, what could you expect from a man in a rooster mask?

"This is not a mask," he would proclaim. "This is my real face. I was once a pet rooster on a farm and a little girl kept me as a pet, but her father wanted to cut my head off and cook me, so she prayed to the Good Fairy,  who turned me into a  real, live boy, but she only did it halfway and this is what resulted."

He also had an abundance of catch phrases.

"Mr. Cock A Doodle Doo is cock of the walk and something to crow about."

"Mr. Cock A Doodle Doo is gonna smash you like broken eggs."

"Mr. Cock A Doodle Doo is death from the barnyard."

"Mr. Cock A Doodle Doo doesn't do sports entertainment. Mr. Cock A Doodle Doo fights for real."

"Mr. Cock A Doodle Doo will peck you to death. Look at that pecker on Mr. Cock A Doodle Doo's  face."

An an extremely small time Jersey promotion in 2000 or so, the "pecker" which was a piece of leather sewn on the mask to look like a beak, was pulled off by an overzealous opponent. Rather than coming unglued himself, the giant rooster man went ahead with the match until the end.

If you missed seeing Mr. Cock A Doodle Doo in action, take heart as there is gossip he will return to action for some California Indies prior to the end of 2011.
