Diesel was my all-time favorite. I saw that guy live in Cincinnati at a Raw taping. It was the Raw episode where he kicked the 'takers ass backstage and threw him in a coffin I think.

Anyways....................I have never seen anyone as large as that guy.

Not really that long ago sometimes comes out but Stone Cold steve austin was the man.

Wahoo McDaniel. Watching him and Johnny Valentine 35 years ago or so was great. I lost interest about the time all the action figures and fireworks became more important than the actual wrestling.

Wahoo had a short career with the Jets as a linebacker, bet you didn't know that :smokin:

[Baseball Guru]

I knew:wave1:

I had the chance to see Wahoo towards the end of his career back when Florida and Georgia wrestling along with the NWA were big...

[Panzram]

Everyone know what a shooter is? Those are like the 'for real' wrestlers who can seriously f*(^ you up. In professional wrestling there has been very few of those in the last 2 decades or so. Bret Hart was the best 1. I hated him when I watched, but now when I look back at it I feel like an idiot for not supporting him.

He really was a good guy. What Shawn Michaels, and Triple H did to him I won't forgive. Not just the Montreal thing, but the total lack of respect any other time leading up to it.

I know why Vince McMahon did what he did. That doesn't make it any better, but it's at least somewhat understandable.

About 3 years before the Montral incident Bret Hart got an offer from WCW for 3 years worth 9 million. Bret showing his loyalty to Vince and the WWF signed a 20 year wwf contract worth considerably less. It only took 2 years before Vince wanted out of the contract, and Bret being the nice gullable person he is took sympathy and agreed to it[And then got his old WCW deal back]. Since Bret was going to leave anyways, Vince told him he could leave any way he wanted. Then later Vince wanted him to lose that match to Michaels in Montreal. Bret talked Vince into letting him win it. Vince later got with Michaels, and Triple H, and told them that he planned to ninja the title away from Bret towards the end[He yelled at the ref to ring the bell when Michaels got the sharpshooter on Bret]

Of course I know why Vince made that decision. He wanted to send Ted Turner a tarnished product. He wanted to ruin Bret Hart's credibility somewhat because he didn't want to compete with him.


I felt bad at how Bret Harts fans turned on him towards the end.

Vince Mcmahon deserves no sympathy for what he did. He owes Bret Hart an appology for playing him the way he did. Hell he ruined his career, and maybe his life. However Vince still thinks he's the one who deserves the apology. And guess what? Brett has come close enough to offering somewhat of an apology to Vince.

[Dward00]

Reason I brought all this up is that I think this monday Vince Mcmahon is going to make Bret Hart the New Monday Night Raw manager. I know it's happening because Hart is scheduled to make an appearance, and the Raw Manager spot still hasn't been filled. Add this to it too: Hart has been caught saying he'd like to keep working in some capacity with the WWE, and Vince said he wanted him back on the video they made.

What the heck kind of thread is this?!! No mention of the man who brought wrestling where it is today? Superstar Billy Graham!! The man of the hour, too sweet to be sour!!! LOL, Graham was one of the best showmen ever.
