Doink the Clown

Doink the Clown was a rather infamous wrestling villain (known as a "heel") who dressed as a clown and was known for committing cruel pranks such as popping children's balloons with a cigar, splashing water on the audience and using a fake prosthetic arm to attack opponents. Once he even attacked an opponent with a car battery and his theme tune was also noteworthy for starting off as a happy "circus theme" before descending into a dark, threatening tune complete with cackling sound effects.

Although Doink the Clown no longer appears in wrestling he is remember by many as one of the sport's more unusual and effective villains - (it is also worth noting that Doink the Clown was not a single wrestler, he was portrayed by several wrestlers throughout his career).
