Favorite Wrestler

[No. GA. Mt. Man]

On the Favorite Sports Moment Thread alot of people have mentioned wrestling. We all know it's not really a sport but in the old days (Pre WWE days) I loved it. I liked alot of them but Ric Flair would have to be my favorite. Who was yours? : :

The unpredictable Dirty Dick Slater was good. I liked his character of how he would switch sides ever few weeks. Most of the time during a match.

He'd be great in politics

The American Dream

Dusty Rhodes

NGMM, Who told you rasslin wasn't a sport. Don't listen they are lying.

From recent times ,Goldberg and Stone Cold.
From when I was a kid, Flair, but it took me a few years to like him.

Back at the Cobb Co. Civic Center in my childhood, I liked Tommy "Wildfire" Rich, the Junkyard Dog, Mr. Wrestling I, Tony Atlas, Ted Debiase, and the American Dream, too.

Dusty Rhodes, He was related to one of my best friends growing up. Once he came to Florida for a match when we where around 10 and stayed at his house. Man what a time, and yes two 10 year olds took him down.

Dusty Rhodes, without a doubt, I also liked George "The Animal " Steel and the Sheephearders and Billy Jack Haynes.

 

[Duff]

Often imitated but "NEVER" duplicated without a doubt the "Nature Boy" was the man.

Troy, I gotta hear that. Can you do the Iron Sheik?

Dick Slater is probably still wrestling

Cheif Wahoo McDanial was my favorite, Wildfor Rich a close second.
