It's hard to comprehend that an absolutely dominant and legitimately dangerous WWE Champion like Bob Backlund would end up being relegated to a mid-card-level, pathetic attempt at being a comedy character, who the majority of the fans don't even seem to know much about... or care much about. Bob Backlund, for old times' sake if nothing else, deserves better treatment and a better role in WWE.
