Wow I am pleasantly surprised that there is a bunch of wrestling watchers here.  I thought I would get a bunch of crap for watching wrestling.

That's to bad ..I used to watch all the stuff back in the day with my Grandfather ...When that stuff was on you did not bother him about anything ..He loved that crap a lot ..my best memories with him was staying up to 11pm and watching wrestling ..Midget wrestling was our all time favorite ..So funny watching those little dudes flying around the ring ..Superfly was one of my favorites ! After Stone Cold left I pretty much gave up on it , All UFC for me now !!

New school yeah Stone Cold was the man, the Rock was a blast to watch.  He could talk the talk for sure.  John Cena kind of took up reins but he really can't play and heal.  He is a good guy.  I really slowed on watching since the Rock left.  Been to some events  WWF and WCW.  I also saw some old AWA stars in a gym when I was a kid.  The Road Warriors Hawk and Animal were probably one of my all time favorites.  OOOOOOOOOOOOOhhhhhh whattttt aaaaa Ruuuuusssshhhhh.  They would always be fined and suspended because they were to rough.

Dean Ambrose at his best will fill your Stone Cold Steve Austin void.  He's held back so much by the new rules they play by on TV now though

[Buckmark]

Rowdy Roddy Piper was my favorite, then Stone cold..
Have not watched any in years though..

[Tbob]

Colonel DeBeerds ended up being a teacher of mine in Highschool.. I was like WTH?!?!?!  It was awesome! He gave us all the lo-down on the wrestling life.. Told us about Jake the Snakes huge coke habit, a few of the guys who were gay with eachother, all kinds of stuff.. It was the best quarter of school ever!!

  Lumberjack Luke and his partner Logger Larson. Remember them getting all riled up for the camera and calling all the fans "Pig Farmers!" Good memories.

I was a big Dutch Savage fan for awhile. When Jimmy Snuka was really young he was his partner for a while.

Bull Ramos was a kick. A really young Jesse Ventura was introduced as his sidekick. First few times I saw him Ramos led him around on a chain like an animal and then throw him a giant sausage that he tore apart. Who would guess future Governor?

Rowdy Roddy Piper was my favorite, then Stone cold..

Yeah ...Rowdy Piper was good too ... I like most of them ..But who I hated the most was Rick Flair ...I wish someone would have really used a bat on his head 

[BLR 243]

Mean Gene Kininski ? I liked Rowdy Piper

[Threewolves]

Cowboy Bill Watts.

[bigmacc]

Eric Frolic who wrestled barefooted and was "the scientific rassler", the man of a thousand holds. How bout George "the animal" Steel, who was half human-half animal and when he got riled up would just wander to one of the corners and proceed to eat the turnbuckles  .....oh,good times!

Rowdy Piper lives near Portland. He was on a house hunting show a while back; seems like a  really nice guy.

[SniperDanWA]

Met Andre in Sioux City, Ia when I was 16.
Jerry Blackwell.
Hulk Hogan
Vern Gognya (so)
Rowdy Roddy Piper
Big bald white guy who didn't talk, held out his hand like he was crushing the skull.
Oh yeah.  Another one said this every time he was interviewed,
Greg something was the TV announcer

Loved it...

Jimmy "SUPERFLY" Snuka,,,,  wasn't his partner for a while playboy buddy rose

He wasn't of Dusty's.  Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka was a blast to watch.  Snuka has a daughter and I believe nephews in the WWE wrestling right now.

The Snukas had lived in the Couve from time to time. Not sure if any of them are still around here.
