George the animal was a gym teacher at same time as his wrestling return. He was employed at madison heights schools. I believe he was at the high school. My dad was a 3rd grade teacher in same system and knew him.

He wasn’t with the WWF in the 80s when I watched wrestling as a youngster.

Not sure if anyone remembers, but there used to be a poster that was part of this community many many moons ago that dipped his toes into WWE style wrestling. I seem to remember him talking about the injuries he sustained while trying to make it into that profession. His name was Landon.

Just another in a long list of forgotten good souls that used be a poster amongst us other heathens.

Lesnar is seriously impressive. Amazing NCAA wrestler, 2 time All American, plus UFC heavy weight champion, plus WWE legend. If WWE was real…Lesnar would destroy everyone.

He’s pretty well known for hurting other wrestlers in the ring. Lots of steroids and a loose cannon and crazy athletic for big man

But still got to an nfl training camp without playing college football… He hadn’t played football in 7 years since high school. That is nuts.

There might have been a publicity stunt aspect to it by that point, especially since he got hurt pretty bad right before the draft that year (motorcycle wreck iirc). That said his performance at the combine before the injury was definitely excellent:
