Robert tried, but his nickname made him too sad to compete, so Wanderlei, "The Wand", went magic-time on him, and poofed him away.
Also, I learned recently calling someone "batty" is a homophobic slur now. It used to be just calling someone crazy, bonkers, or insane. But now, it's a slur. Interesting.
