By far, the most ridiculous moment in WWE history was the debut, via hatching on the commentary desk, of the Gobbledy Gooker. Fans were first introduced to the giant egg on television in 1990, but would have to wait to see what it contained until Survivor Series that year. There was no telling who, or what, it might be, but The Undertaker famously has spoken about how he was terrified it would be the debut of his character after he had just left WCW for the company. While future WWE Hall of Famer Mark Calaway would debut at Survivor Series that year, he wasn’t the character in the egg. What hatched was far more absurd.

At the pay-per-view, the egg was set up on the desk at ringside. As it began to crack, “Mean” Gene Okerlund pondered just what could be inside. Rather than a major debut from the competition, a wrestler in a turkey costume hatched from the egg and fans were stunned into silence as Okerlund attempted to interview the “animal.”

Okerlund dubbed the character the “Gobbledy Gooker,” as it only spoke in gobbles. The turkey and the commentator then danced in the ring to a chorus of boos, while Roddy Piper and Gorilla Monsoon, who remained on commentary, attempted to salvage the segment by saying the Gooker had captured the hearts of the crowd. The man in the turkey costume was Hector Guerrero, who has even taken responsibility for the failed gimmick due to his performance, despite the absurd gimmick being dead on arrival.
