I always knew wrestling was fake, but I was still scared of this guy. He was nuts. He once cut himself with an axe on purpose during a wrestling show on TV.

 

Canadian Lumberjack Joe Leduc:

This guy("The Mongolian Stomper") was a physical specimen. Apparently he rode his bike almost everywhere he went, sometimes as far as 60 miles a day. No wonder his legs were like tree trunks. I saw him wrestle live when he made his way around SE KY in the seventies. BTW, after his wrestling career was over he worked as a deputy sheriff around Knoxville for several years.

Watched these two go at it at the National Guard Armory, then I sadly watched as they got in the same Lincoln and left together.

The original Four Horsemen

Road Warriors

Nikita Koloff

Sweet Ebony Diamond

Paul Orndorf

Flair - the greatest

 

Not sure if it goes back more or less than 25 years but any combo of matches between Funk, Kevin Sullivan and Chris Benoit were the most physical and fun to watch. Swore they hated each other. Went into the stands, the rafters, bathrooms, etc...

Loved the old National Guard Armory shows!!! Saw a little old lady get mad at a match between Jimmy Golden and the Stomper. The Stomper was stomping a mudhole in Jimmy and granny didn't like it. She got to the edge of the ring with purse in hand in an attempt to dish out some mamaw mayhem at the Stomper's expense before being halted by security.

Nikita is very under rated by most fans, he was great!

 

Loved the 4 Horsemen (w/o Barry Windham, can't stand him)

 

Met the Road Warriors about 5:30 a.m. in the Memphis airport...cool guys.

 

Yes, FLAIR is the GOAT!!!

When I was a student at UK we saw some matches one night at (I'm pretty sure) Lexington Catholic gym. One of the villains was Tojo Yamamoto. All the blue- and white-haired ladies had miniature American flags to wave...........(Nobody called them racists in those days.)

I was born in 87' so I kind of grew up in the golden days of WWF and WCW.

 

As a kid some of my favorites were...

 

Ricky the Dragon Steamboat

Ravishing Rick Rude

The Rockers (Shawn Michaels and Marty Janetti)

DDP

Ric Flair

 

and my all time favorite...."Sting!!!!!"

 

In my later childhood years I was enamored with the Attitude era guys in WWF and loved Stone Cold, DX, the Rock, etc.

Tojo was something else. I can remember a TV taping once where he threatened to beat up Lance Russell(the announcer) and dropped a four letter word on the air.

What!!! Professional wrestling is fake?
