Wrestling "Jobber" Salvatore Bellomo; 1985

Описание: Although he was billed from Italy, Salvatore Bellomo was in fact born in Hornu, Belgium. When he first signed with the WWF, it looked like he might have been on his way to a major push, but it never happened. Although nearly always placed in the role of babyface and matched against some the most despised heels, Sal sometimes had trouble receiving a positive reaction from the crowd.

About the term "Jobber":
Unless they’re related to the promoter, nearly every wrestler spends some time doing jobs (losing most or all matches). Sometimes a wrestler will do jobs because they’re new to the business and sometimes they had been on the winning end for a time, then spent some time making newer stars look good. Often due to nothing more than bad fortune, some talented, capable wrestlers never see a successful period in a major promotion. When they have more class than ego, some “jobbers” will work for years making the top stars look good.

As a fan, I’ve always thought the underdogs of wrestling were/are under-appreciated. I use the term “jobber” because it’s the search word most fans would use when looking for the less-discussed workers of the past. They did what they were booked and paid to do and they deserve our respect. Without someone losing a match, there would be no winners in pro wrestling.
