Blackbeard, Captain of the Wicked Wench

[Disney Wrassler]

How many of you guys/girls knew that Blackbeard was the Captain of the Wicked Wench before Barbossa took over?

I knew for a very long time because my aunt bought me a pirate doll MANY years ago of the captain at Disneyland. The box said that the captain was Blackbeard.

Interesting.

Strange.. I always thought he was the captain of Queen Anne's Revenge. They must have released it at the same time they did Blackbeards Ghost.

I think most people knew.

Wouldn't it be cool if they put him on display in the Gallery?

Does anyone know what they actually did with Blackbeard with the new POC changes?

I don't know. I would hope that they kept the original animatronic (or face mask, if they simply replaced his face with Barbossa). I do miss him...

Re: Blackbeard, Captain of the Wicked Wench

I have not had a chance to see the attraction since the changes have been implemented but I have heard that the Barbossa AA is less than impressive. Does he not resemble Geoffrey Rush? Is it not as fluid as Blackbeard? Did they actually replace the Blackbeard AA with an entirely new AA or as MooglePower mentioned above, did they just change his face?

He does not look like Barbossa at all in my opinion. He looks to skinny also.

In real life he did. he captained the vessel, "Queen Anne's Revenge". That's the only one I know of atleast.
