10 wrestlers with fake hometowns

#7 The Headbangers - The Outer Reaches of your mind, originally Jersey

The Headbangers, Mosh and Thrasher. Or was it Thrasher and Mosh?

Remember the Headbangers, the mid-90s tag team that wore kilts, goatees, and wore heavy metal t-shirts as part of their gimmick? No? You're probably not alone.

Still, the Headbangers were a minor sensation when they joined the WWE in 1996. They even captured the tag team championship by defeating three other teams, including the Legion of Doom/Road Warriors.

Eventually, the Headbangers split up and were rarely seen on television again. They mostly wrestle on the independent circuit, though they've shown up for special WWE broadcasts in recent years.
