Dusty Wolfe (born July 18, 1962), occasionally billed as Dale Wolfe and occasionally appearing as Doink the Clown, is an American retired professional wrestler who debuted on July 5, 1982 in San Antonio, Texas. He was trained by Ken Johnson, who helped Shawn Michaels enter professional wrestling (Johnson was later a co-owner of Texas Wrestling Academy). He is known for his long tenure as a jobber in what was then known as the WWF, where he was respected for his ability to work with, and put over, major stars. He also wrestled extensively in the NWA territories and independently, where he was typically near the top of the bill, though not a main event attraction.[2] Wolfe also worked for the World Wrestling Council in Puerto Rico where he was a 2 times tag team champion.
Wolfe is one of five people licensed to wrestle as Doink the Clown.[3]
