WOW, Baker has done extremely well for you. Right now as I said he is bodyguard in MDC. He is currently trying to weaken the LWF Champion Jimmy Snuka to see if he can get him down so Dibiase can get the title off him. Only time will tell.

Well, I do have to say this about Baker -- he seemed to hit a lot of Heart Punches out of nowhere .. the dice were extremely good to him during his various runs ...

Whats weird about Ox is when I decided to start playing LOW, I ordered pretty much all the cards that were available at one time (go big or go home right?). Started out using the main box set, and even though I didn't really know who he was, but the awesome drawing and cool finishing move really drew him to me. He reminds me of a old school hardcore guy and I loved the old ECW when it was around. But the feeling was not mutual. Baker started his career with me 2-0-12, continuously losing to guys like The Sandman, Justin Credible, and Timber. He was doing so terrible, I had him fight Harley Race in a "tune-up" match before a PPV, and Baker actually beat him! So I had him join a new stable "The King's Court" headed up by Race to try and jumpstart his career a little bit. He is 2-0 since he joined so maybe things are finally turned around for him. Maybe he will go back after the XTREME championship like I planned for him earlier, but the dice didnt cooperate before.

I use Ox in a bodyguard/flunky role, first to Frank Gotch and then to George Hackenschmidt and he's done rather well. He actually has a winning record in my current fed.

He's always seemed to go in streaks for me when he starts hitting the heart punches left and right there's no stopping him. Overall he's always done just ok not great |

He has been a good low to mid card heel for me. Lost his feud with Harker recently. Sending him from my NWA-World Class region to NWA--Midwest to see if his luck improves. If not, might use him in the bodyguard/manager role.

Ox Baker has a 44% winning as a singles wrestlers and won 50% of has matches teaming with Frank Gotch as the Iowa Hawkeye, but a 68% winning percentage as the OUTLAWS with Killer Kowlaski. The Outlaws have never had a tag team championship match.
In his singles matches he is a 67% winner against top contenders, a very low 15% winner against his peeers in the mid card level and 72% winner against the jobbers in the WLW. He can not get over against his peers which has kept him in the mid card matches all his career. He did win the WWF(formally MidWest Championship) Championship over Dan Severn once but lost to Dick Hutton.

does not do very good for me at all. Has tried a team with Bob Orton Jr. that didn't go very well, formed an alliance with Iron Sheik & Nikolai Volkoff, but now has joined Sir Oliver Humperdink and teams with the Masked Superstar.
