!!! "Wildman"[=/=]"Marvelous" Marc Mero 1996-1998
[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/marcmero_4971.jpg]]
* AlliterativeName
* ArchEnemy: Wrestling/TripleH at first, later Wrestling/{{Sable}}.
* CrazyJealousGuy: He was oddly paranoid after his initial turn and it led to weird moments like when he was supposed to face Salvatore Sincere on the December 8, 1997 ''Raw.'' Instead Mero called him a jobber and said that his real name was Tom Brandi. Other than insulting Sincere, what this was supposed to accomplish remains clouded in mystery.
* DomesticAbuse: Heavily implied in his initial heel turn on Sable in late 1997.
* FinishingMove: Wild Thing (Shooting Star Press; later renamed "Marvelosity"); TKO (Fireman's Carry Diamond Cutter), which outlived Mero's career and has become the common name for that variation of the move, mainly because it's a lot easier than having to say "Fireman's Carry Diamond Cutter."
* IHaveTheHighGround: The first person to ever do a Shooting Star Press in WWE, debuting it during his match with Goldust at ''[=SummerSlam=] 1996''.
* TheResenter: His whole turn seemed to be based on his being angry about Sable getting popular on her own while he was out much of the year with an injury.
* TemptingFate: On the November 30, 1998 ''Raw,'' he said he would retire if [[http://www.wrestling-titles.com/mexico/uwa/wwf-lh.html WWF World Light Heavyweight Champion]] [[Characters/WWEAttitude Duane Gill]] beat him. He had Gill down and was about to go for Marvelosity when Gill's J.O.B. Squad ally Wrestling/TheBlueMeanie pushed him off, leading to Gill pinning Mero, who would then go on to the UK PPV ''Capital Carnage'' six days later to lose a mixed tag match with Jacqueline to Sable and Wrestling/{{Christian}}.
* VillainTeamUp: With Goldust, dressed as Music/MarilynManson, against [[Characters/WWETagTeams the Headbangers]] in early 1998. It fell apart once Sable and Wrestling/LunaVachon started having their own problems.
* WrestlingDoesntPay: As part of his heel turn, he was repackaged with a boxer gimmick.

* TheAlcoholic: Implied. He teamed with Wrestling/{{Ivory}} in a loss to Mark Henry and Wrestling/MaeYoung on the March 5, 2000 ''[[{{BShow}} Sunday Night Heat]]''. As he walked to the ring, the commentators said, "I think Ivory drinks lattes, I don't know what Mideon drinks, or how much."
* IdentityImpersonator: HHH turned him into "Bogus Mankind" as part of his feud with Mick Foley in early 2000.
