Looks like @bols got some granny std

I haven’t watched wrestling in a long time. This guy was one of my favorites. His knees have to be shot. Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka. Piper’s Pit was cool. Macho Man.

[Martymcfly2017]

Is that what you want to do @stephenboyd57 ?

[stephenboyd57]

I sure hope not. Socko is a good friend.

[Martymcfly2017]

We need a rival. No more granny rivals. A Canadian vs a all American boy. You know im joking

@socko

His knees have to be shot.

Well, he passed away in 2017… so I bet they are by now. Superfly was great.

No worries bud. I appreciate the good laughs and shit talk. It’s the main reason I love the den. Tons of laughs and good insight.

Best 2 records in AL are Tigers and Jays… How cool is that

I watched Wrestling 1986-1990 or 1991. From ages 6-10 or so. Really liked tag team and my favorites were The Rockers, Demolition, The Bushwackers and The Hart Connection.

Of the solo guys of that era I loved Superfly Jimmy Snuka (didn’t know about him allegedly murdering his girlfriend), Brutus the Barber Beefcake and Jake The Snake Roberts.

Rowdy Roddy Piper became my favorite once I discovered the existence of They Live.

@Jman

I heard the story about him slamming a case of beer 24 on the way to the airport…45 minute drive

Stories around him and his ability to absorb alcohol are legendary.

[Martymcfly2017]

Apparently he never brushed his teeth as well.

[LineBusy]

Those were the days.

My first recollection of wresting was mid 70s when my dad took me to a big match at the IMA sports Arena in Flint:

Bobo Brazil vs the Sheik

Same place I went later to see Thomas Hearns/Sugar Ray Leonard I fight closed circuit PPV. Those were the days.

Any top 5 has got to include the 8th wonder of the world.

I saw Andre and the Junkyard Dog in a tag team match against Big John Studd and Ken Patera at Cobo.

Andre walked JYD into the ring on a chain then let him loose and helicoptered it over his head.

Good stuff.

I met these 3 at the Ionia Free Fair.
George “The Animal” Steele was there as well. Missed my chance to meet him.
