paul_614 Posted December 9, 2014 Report Posted December 9, 2014 I have to admit, I watch as much as is on tv. I find it more entertaining than most movies. My favourite would be The Undertaker.

I loved the Shiek. Always pulling out some illegal object and drawing blood from his opponent. I remember every one of those wrestlers you mentioned. Loved all the midget wrestlers back in the day too. Edited December 9, 2014 by DRIFTER_016
Roy Posted December 9, 2014 Report Posted December 9, 2014 I stopped being the least bit interested when I was 8 or 9 when I realized that it was a choreographed show. I know, it took me a while because my favourites were still up there. Edouard Carpentier, Yukon Eric, Argentina Rocca, Johnny Rougeau and many others. It doesn't matter anymore...none of it is real. Just as most sports.

A lot of the wrestlers would show up for the cause at various locations

Hooked Posted December 9, 2014 Report Posted December 9, 2014 Sure it's choreographed, but the reality of it is the pain they go through is very real! I can't imagine jumping outta the ring into a table....forget that! I am no fan of wrestling nowadays, as a kid, for sure! So my favourite wrestler was Buff Bagwell. His interviews....were just the best! A close second would be Big Pappa Pump!
