Ricky Steamboat also has to be one of my favorite wrestlers of all time, the only problems I find with that are:

(1) How did he get so popular if he almost always lost?
(2) Why did he always disappear for months if he was so popular?

I just remember those plastic monitos that weighed like 25 pounds. You could really do a lot of damage to someone with those.

Weren't they made out of rubber? I think I still have the Honky Tonk man's face inprinted on my back. Either that or it's Elvis trying to tell me something.

One the best villians had to be the Iron Sheik and the Bolshiviks. That was always funny cause they'd talk shit.

Best Tag Team is House of Pain or Powers of Pain I forgot

I alway Liked the Ultimate Warrior, Goldberg is cool too when he first came out he would whoop ass fast, Like my favorite match, when the Honky tonk man talked shit and challenged any one in the area and then the Warrior came out and kick his ass like in ten seconds!

Best Scrub Wrestler, I think his name was Mike Steel, the dude who would pat his own back, that was sweet cause he sucked.

(1) his style was just so ahead of his time. the guy's moves were amazing.
(2) his style was also the cause for a lot of injuries that he endured throughout his career. that's why he had to retire early. his back just couldn't take it. he also didn't spend his entire career at wwf. he was nwa world heavyweight champion where he had many memorable matches with ric flair.

tag team: powers of pain. they kicked ass.

honky challenged "any man, not any warrior." summerslam '88

barry horrowitz would pat his own back. he also called himself "the winner." there was also iron mike sharpe who wore a cast on his forearm. the proper term for the scrubs is jobber because they do the "job" to get the big guys over with the fans.

What's the deal with rookie wrestlers who give the other wrestlers with seniority oral pleasure? Is this the troof?

And if it is, does it make everyone who watches wrestling a homosexual?

Before living in the states I grew up watching Mil Mascaras and el Santo.

Gots to admit I loved those movies. Seeing Santo driving a convertible and then jumping out so he could wrestle a vampire was priceless.

Also, playing with those plastics models and the capes were pretty cool.

this is the first time people have mentioned mexican wrestlers. they did kick ass. they all rocked. now i wonder if anyone has heard of antonio inoki, the great muta, masahiro chono. all of these are legends in japan, and they all kicked ass. there was also jushin liger, a cruiserweight in japan that nearly died of a braineurism and was back in the ring three weeks after his surgery.
