*** WRASSLIN' PING LIST TAGGED IN***
As always, if you'd like ON or OFF my wrasslin' ping list, let me know
Nick was a great heel. I hated him most of my childhood. Those were the good old days.
I stopped watching pro wrestling when Rowdy Roddy Piper became passe. My pro wrestling summit was during Verne Gagne's AWA best era.
I LOVED pro wrestling when technology wasn't needed i.e. the personalities of the characters were as good as it gets.
If we ever get into it I'll tell some priceless stories of Hard Boiled Haggerty and the Mysterious Mr. M who were my first villains and when my Dad's taunting (while I understood the propriety of the game) made pro wrestling the greatest sport ever invented.
Pro wrestling included a story told by Bud Grant (of NFL fame) and his close personal friend, Verne Gagne, that left me rolling on the floor laughing out loud. Nick Bockwinkel was by far as good as any and better than most.
I haven't watched pro wrestling in 15 year and know like I know my own name that nothing today can match those golden days of pro wrestling.
