* WTHCostumingDepartment: Even ignoring the infamous trip, the Shockmaster's debut look is memorably laughable in its own way: a big furry vest over a shirtless chest, jeans, and a Stormtrooper helmet dipped in glitter. While the Shockmaster gimmick was briefly preserved, the WCW wisely reworked his look into an unassuming HandyMan with an ordinary construction worker helmet.

* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: The Shockmaster's fall of course, and the rest of the wrestlers [[{{Corpsing}} cracking up]]. Even his voice, Ole Anderson, had a bout of giggles as he started his voiceover.

* {{Narm}}: The Shockmaster. Even if that didn't get botched, one would imagine how hard a man wearing a purple stormtrooper helmet and Ole Anderson's voice would be taken seriously.

* SoBadItsGood: While the Shockmaster's entrance would go down as one of the biggest [[EpicFail epic fails]] in wrestling history, at the very least, there are plenty of things to laugh about.
