What!!! Professional wrestling is fake?

 

 

Absolute truth --- My great-grandfather died believing wrestling was 100% real but believed the moon landing was 100% fake.

Well, I knew the moon landing was real but to learn pro wrestling is fake....it's like learning the Easter Bunny really didn't hide my Easter basket!

I'm reminded of a Tonight Show years ago when Dolly Partin was a guest. I remember something was said by Dolly and Johnny came back with, "I'd give a month's salary to find out!".

I remember watching that episode in real time. Johnny could be a little devilish at times(not unlike you and I). Dolly wasn't offended at all. She is such a hoot.

I like to watch the matches between Tommy Wildfire Rich and Buzz Sawyer saw them once in Huntington and they went out into the street fighting it was great. I also loved the following during interviews: Dusty, Ric, Michael P.S. Hayes, Jimmy Garvin and the Boogie Woogie Man Jimmy Valiant.

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.

Can you image being pulled over by the Stomper? I don't know about you, but I'm complying.

Jimmy Valiant wrestled about a mile from my house about a year or so ago and I couldn't make it cause of work. I think know he was over 70 years old then.

He would probably wrestle AT YOUR HOUSE in order pick up a paycheck. He's getting rather long in the tooth.

Wrestling used to be so awesome. It stinks now.

I dont go back that far, but a few of my favorites...

 

Michael PS Hayes (Fabulous Freebirds)

Beautiful Bobby Eaton

Ric Flair

Junkyard Dog

 

I saw the Junkyard Dog at a Las Vegas Walmart selling autographs for $5 when I was in college. The weird thing is that he wasn't seated at the entrance of the store. Their was no advertisements that he was even there. He was just sitting a card table on a random aisle. I remember feeling sad for the guy.

Road Warriors

Randy Savage

Roddy Piper

Ole and Arn Anderson
