Max
Moon, aka The Komet Kid (and also aka Maxamillion Moves for at
least some promotional work), was set to be international superstar
Konnan's debut gimmick in McMahonland, but alas, it was not to
be.
Konnan, for
one reason or another, was set to only work a certain amount of
shows per year, much to the chagrin of the rest of the workers.
Also, the fact that he got to wear a super snazzy outfit that
cost THOUSANDS of dollars didn't hurt.
Well, actually,
it did. The outfit was horribly garish. Add to that the fact that
the suit came with a ROCKET PACK that shot some smoke out of it.
Max, who was billed as being from OUTER SPACE, would then leap
down the ramp as if the rockets were lifting him off the ground.
Only problem
was....Konnan only showed up to do this one time. After that,
he bolted for the more familiar waters of Lucha Libre before ending
up in WCW. The guy you see pictured here was his replacement,
Paul Diamond (aka Kato of the Orient Express), who was lucky enough
for the suit to be just his size.
