During a recent edition of the “Oh You Didn’t Know?” podcast, former WWE Superstar Dennis Knight (Mideon) commented on his infamous streaker gimmick in WWE.

According to Knight, Vince McMahon was inspired to create the gimmick after hearing a story about him being naked in the locker-room.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

On the story that inspired Vince McMahon to give him naked man gimmick: “Kurt [Angle] comes back and he’s talking and he goes in and takes a shower and he comes back out and he pulls his underwear off and I drop my towel and I go, ‘I am the naked man.’ Then [Blackjack] Lanza comes and goes, ‘Hey we need someone for a meet and greet,’ and I threw on my towel and walked out into the hallway and was like ‘Where is this meet and greet?’”

On not seeing the gimmick as a negative: “It’s so funny, that’s all anybody ever talks about and they’re like, ‘Oh, that must’ve been terrible,’ I was like, this is ’98, ’99, I’m getting my head kicked in by Vader, and all these guys every single night. I got paid the exact same amount of money for like eight months to run to the ring in my fanny pack.”
