Favourite Wrestlers

[eastaugh36]

Who are your favourite wrestlers from the past and present ?

Having watched wrestling since the mid 80s I can say Hulk Hogan is the greatest ever and got wrestling where it is today. I miss the old times of the mid 80s when the stars would wrestle jobbers all the time,pretty funny stuff especially all the "weakies" you would see losing so easily.I am going to buy some old tapes very soon, should be good to see again.
Present day, my fave is WCW, due to the older stars that wrestle there from the WWF glory days. I like Jarrett, his charisma and mic skills are the best,DDP, Booker T all rule.
In the WWF, you gotta love Vincent J McMahon ! William Regal is a laugh too !
I would be lost without my wrestling !

I have a few. I always cheered for the bad guy.

Jake 'The Snake' Roberts.
Jim 'The Anvil' Neidhart.
Macho Man Randy Savage.
King Kong Bundy.
The Missing Link.
Moondog Spot.
Killer Khan (evil personified).

Last but not least, 'The Brooklyn Brawler' Steve Lombardi. This bloke was the ultimate fall guy. Never won a stink and consistently was beaten to a pulp.

where's wally?

 

[eastaugh36]

you should go to superstars of wrestling when it comes over to melbourne.
Jim Neidhart, Ultimate Warrior, Curt Hennig,Bushwackers,Greg Valentine and Tatanka plus many more are coming , tickets are on sale now
I remember Moondog Spot, he used to have that bone didnt he lol

I named my dog after Chris Y2J Jericho.
Other favourites are Norman Smiley & Alex Wright. What does he call himself these days anyway?
As you can probably tell, I don't take my wrestling particularly seriously. The Rock is also mildly amusing.

My traditional favourite is the Macho Man Randy Savage. I wish he was still in the game.

Hulk Hogan is my all time favourite wrestler!!

Hes the greatest wrestler in history and nobody will ever come close to the Hulkster!

Remember Kokos bird - Frankie ?

 

[coxon]

have any of u guys checked out a video called 'Beyond the mat'... a documentary done by Mick Foley... not sure who he is.. apparently one of the greats of wrestling?

it goes behind the scenes.. to look at the wrestling world.. and also shows some of the former stars, that are now a shadow of themselves, working in some shithouse wrestling circuit, problems with drugs..

koko b ware, jake the snake (drugs).. etc, look like sorry bastards...

i havent seen it, heard about it.. but will look for it the next time in the vid shop

[Asgardian]

Oh dear, revelation time, I used to watch the wrestling on Channel 9 on a Sunday morning, my Dad loved watching it with me then, this was in the 1960's through to the very early 1970's.
My favourites were Mark Lewin, Killer Karl Cox, Killer Kowalski, Ron Miller, Larry O'Day, Andre the Giant, King Curtis, Bulldog Brower, Spirios Arion & Mario Milano.
Everyone know Steve Rackeman from Crocodile Dundee, well he was one of the "bad guys", used to always lose, then they gave him a bad guy look and then he used to win, funny stuff.

Coxon - i saw a preview for that at the start of Gone In Sixty Seconds.
Looks very interesting, didnt see Koko but i saw Jake (thoughts of killing himself). Mankind is also in it with blood all over his face and hes says i hope the fans got there F*cking money's worth. Families of the wrestlers crying and shit. Looks cool.

 

[Magpie-Fletch]

Hulk Hogan
Demolition
Big John Studd
Kevin Nash aka Diesel in the WWF
Scott Hall aka Razor Ramon in the WWF

The one true ruler of the free world, NATURE BOY RIC FLAIR.

Roddy in his old 'Pipers Pit' days. Remember the coconut smashed over Snukas head?

Jushin Liger, Muta, Magnificent Muraco (for what he did to pretty boy Steamboat). George the Animal and his Miss Elizabeth fetish....

Going further back, like Asgardian, to many Sunday afternoons watching the likes of Brute Bernard, Johhny Gray the Von Erich brothers. Blame my mother, she was the one that used to take me "This Saturday Night at Festival Hall" to see those guys live. Ron Miller, Casey Miller was the MAN lol.

Brainwashed early in life, and LOVING IT!

[madboy]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Mick Foley the real name of Mankind?

My favourite wrestlers are Goldberg (GOOLDBEEERG), Sid Vicious, Sting and Hulk Hogan. I watch WCW Nitro on Monday night. You've gotta love the commentators who think one wrestler smuggling a chair into the ring is the greatest tragedy ever!!!!

Yes that's correct. Mankind is one of Foley's "alter-ego's"
