We all know the formula by heart

The scenario you descibe is somewhat familiar

However, I would have to disagree with you regardingThe Fat Fraud's 'feuds'. The galling thing, particularly in the case of 'Stacks and the Mighty John Quinn was that we were watching guys who had previously swept all opponents aside with relative ease ( including some of the best British wrestlers of that time) suddenly become virtually ineffectual against a great big unfit barrell of lard known as Big Daddy. The real low point for me was watching a televised Fat Fraud tag match with the great Rollerball Rocco on the opposing side. It was such an insult I turned off the TV after about five minutes, which was usually inthinkable when Rocco was wrestling.
IMHO it was little wonder that many of the most respected wrestlers in the game decided to join Dixon.
