A returning character from the comedy show, MadTV. The notorious Argentinian wrestler - self-named "El Asso Wipo" - was infamous for demonstrating how he would break people's backs, "Like so! With my knee!"
"Of course not. El Asso Wipo would not break the back of a baby or the holy back of a priest. But ... anybody else who steps in to the ring with me had better be in desperate need of having his back broken for that is what lies in wait for him! Grown men will weep. Beautiful women will dance naked at my feet! El Asso Wipo will marry Cindy Crawford and barbeque hamburgers with President Bill Clinton. Little American children will buy an Asso Wipo action figure and stay up late on school nights to watch El Asso Wipo interview Tom Hanks on El Asso Wipo Show! All this will come to pass or this country will be a wasteland of broken back invalids!"
