The Bachelorette Files: Justin “Rated R” Rego

None of Ali Fedotowsky’s suitors have drawn more attention prior to the start of the season than professional wrestler Justin “Rated R” Rego! ABC released a Bachelorette Season 6 preview clip that featured the cocksure Canadian during which he confesses to Ali that he is a wrestler and then unbuttons his shirt to reveal a t-shirt with “Rated R” printed across the front. The surprising part? Ali seemed to like it!

So as I wrap up “The Bachelorette Files” just prior to the season kicking off May 24, I wanted to be sure to create one for the guy who could turn out to be the most memorable person from Season 6 – including Ali!

Remove sexiness from the equation and undoubtedly hefty Hugo “Hurley” Reyes is the greatest character to emerge from the six seasons of ABC’s Lost – and that’s coming from someone who thinks there are a LOT of great characters to emerge from the six seasons of ABC’s Lost!

John Locke is a close second, but he just can’t hang with the cuddly mass of Shaggy and Scooby-Dooness that is Hurley! He won the lottery, bought a fried chicken restaurant chain and he was the only one to realize how integral Volkswagen vans are to the inner workings of the cosmos!

But, perhaps most importantly, Hurley had the power to reel in the sometimes absurd and borderline over-the-top plot twists of the show, and he did it with a single four-letter word…
