Name your favourite Tenta moments here, like Damien-burgers, "ending" Andre the Giants career, and, ummm, The Oddities feud with ICP.

I liked his introduction into the wwf. If I remember correctly, it was during a "push-up contest" between two wrestlers. I want to say Ultimate Warrior and Rick Rude but I don't think that's correct cause I remember Tenta's earliest days involved teeming with Dino Bravo. I remember Tenta was supposed to be some kind of random fat guy in the crowd that sat on the Face's back as he did push ups. Tenta is then revealed as a Heel plant and proceeds to assist in a beatdown.

that intro was a tremendous moment. particularly in the salad days of my youth when it still seemed like it could almost possibly all be partly real. otherwise my memories are vague - him stomping around the ring prior to his finisher, the natural disasters, controlling him in the royal rumble game at the arcade...
