Thrasher (wrestler)

Glenn Ruth (born June 13, 1969) is an American professional wrestler, better known by the ring name, Thrasher.

For much of his career he has teamed with Mosh, most famously as The Headbangers, a pair of metal-heads known for their outrageous costumes such as nose rings and kilts.

In 1994, he started teaming up with Chaz Warrington as the Spiders working in the independent circuit in New Jersey and Texas.

In December 1995 Smokey Mountain folded and they joined the United States Wrestling Association (USWA).

Ruth debuted in the World Wrestling Federation in August 1990 under his real name losing to Rick Rude.

Losing to the big names; Ric Flair, Undertaker, Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart.

He appeared on the second ever episode of Raw in 1993 a losing effort against Marty Jannetty, competing under his given name as an enhancement talent.

They won the NWA Tag Team Championships on February 23, 1998 defeating The Rock 'n' Roll Express on Raw Is War.

[5][6] The Headbangers split in January 1999 when Ruth suffered a knee injury and Warrington began pursuing a singles career, but reformed in late 1999 on the October 10 edition of Sunday Night Heat when Ruth came to Warrington's aid during a domestic violence angle, which saw him vilified by other wrestlers and officials alike for a number of weeks.

Shortly thereafter the two began appearing regularly as a team again, but were now heels and inexplicably came to the ring wearing cone brassieres which they wore while they wrestled.
