I. Intro

       Hey, It's me Gruel. I'm here this time to deliver the movelist for
Big Boss Man. Hope you enjoy the list and find it very useful. It seems
that other WM 2000 Movelists by different authors(Undrtkr & The Game)
seem to be using the exact format for the "other US wrestling games that
(Wrestle name here) appeared in." I don't mind other authors using it,
just give me credit for using that layout because I originated it, just
like the layout I used for wrestlers bio's that I started in my WEF
Attitude Game Boy Color FAQ.

       Real Name: Ray Traylor
       Former identities, names, nicknames: Big Boss Man(WWF, 1988-1993,
       1998-Current), The Boss(WCW, 1993-1994), Guardian Angel(WCW,
       1994-1995), Big Bubba Rogers(WCW, 1995-1997), Ray Traylor(WCW,
       1999)

       Title(4)
       Former Ring Escorts: Slick(WWF, 1988-1989), Vincent(WCW, 1996-
       1997), Prince Alber(WWF, 1999)

               Ray Traylor started in the WWF in about 1988 with Slick as
       his manager, in 1989 Slick turned on him and the Boss Man turned
       into a good guy. His most memorable match in his first stint in
       the WWF was at Summerslam where he beat Mr. Perfect where the
       loser spends the night in jail. He also faced Hulk Hogan for the
       World Title in a Cage match, but lost. He finished up his first
       stint in the WWF in 1993, and went on over to WCW, billed as
       "The Boss," but that character resembled the Big Boss Man name
       to much and a lawsuit was filed and he change his name to
       "The Guardian Angel." Later on Guardian Angel changed his name
       to Big Bubba Rogers, and later it dropped to just Big Bubba, he
       joined the faction, the Dungeon of Doom, and was the first person
       to do the job to a new WCW wrestler named Glacier. If you remember
       back in 1996, WCW had a whole bunch of vignettes for a group
       called, Blood Runs Colled, and Bubba challenged Glacier to unveal
       himself and wrestle him, Glacier wrestled bubba a while later, and
       loss in under a minute.

               Later on Bubba left the Dungeon of Doom and joined the NWO
       later on in 1996. He always came out with Vincent. His career went
       nowhere in the NWO, and Hulk Hogan ended up kicking him out of the
       group in September 1997. He came back a week later and appeared
       as his real name, Ray Traylor. He teamed with the Steiners for
       some matches, but once the Steiners broke up in Feburary 1998,
       Traylor slowly disappeared off the WCW scene, and got fired from
       WCW in about April or May 1998.

               He came back with the WWF in September 1998, when he jumped
       Steve Austin during a match, as a masked man, after the beating
       he unmasked himself and it the Boss Man was back. He was no longer
       the police-uniformed good guy Boss Man, but now Black jump suited,
       bad guy. He was the first wrestler to join the Corporation with
       Vince McMahon the leader of the faction. He made his return match
       to the WWF at the Survivor Series in 1998 when he lost to Steve
       Austin by DQ after using his nightstick. He won his first WWF
       gold by beating Manking in a ladder match for the new Hardcore
       title on November 30, 1998, but lost it shortly thereafter on
       December 15, 1998 to Road Dogg. He also won the tag title in
       December with Ken Shamrock, and held onto it for a month and
       a half until losing it to Owen Hart & Jeff Jarrett in Janauary
       1999. Boss Man was in the sub main event at Wrestlemania 15, where
       he lost to the Undertaker in a Hell in a Cell match, and
       afterwords, the Brood just about hanged him to death!

               The Boss Man won the Hardcore Title a second time at
       Fully Loaded in July from Al Snow, but lost it back to him
       a month later at Summerslam, but regained it 2 days later
       at a Smackdown taping to win the belt for a 3rd time, but lost
       in September to the returning British Bulldog. He became the
       first 4-time Hardcore Champ, when he won the belt from Al Snow
       in a triple threat match between him, Snow, and the Big Show
       on October 12, 1999 taping of Smackdown. At this time he teamed
       with Prince Albert to help him terrorize the Big Show, by making
       fun of the Big Show's dad. Boss Man was in the sub-main event
       at the Armageddon PPV, losing to the Big Show in a World Title
       match. A few weeks later, things boiled down between Boss Man
       and Albert, and the team broke up, and Albert caused Boss Man
       to lose his Hardcore Title to Test recently in January 2000,
       that was the longest the Bossman held onto the Hardcore Title,
       which was for 3 months. Things look more promising for the
       Boss Man's future for the WWF and maybe he'll win more greater
       WWF gold in the future.
