wtf where’s Bruno Samartino?
Jerry Lawler was in a fighting match with Andy Kaufman but couldn’t tell if it was real. I mean wrestling is fake but those guys do get hurt.

9 of 10. Missed Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake. I never watched wrestling, but so many of my friends did that I heard these names over and over.

10-10 Honky-Tonk Man rules 💥🤠
In the late ‘80’s, I was young teen sitting front row at a house show for WWE. Honkey Tonk Man wrestled and was being heckled by a few rowdy fans. He used the N-word a few times to try to quiet them down but instead made it worse. So he finished the match and that was it. Crazy.

9/10. Didn't know #7.

Seeing that clip of "Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling" above makes me wish I could see that show again (I was in my senior year of college at Fairleigh Dickinson University in Teaneck, New Jersey in late 1985 when it premiered on CBS' Saturday morning schedule. "Rock 'n' Wrestling" was in reruns after that, from September 1986 until June 1987). It would bring back a few pleasant memories of my senior year college days before graduating in June 1986. (Also at Fairleigh Dickinson during my senior year, I was a disc jockey at their radio station. I would play some tracks from "The Wrestling Album" often.)

I understand the reason why "Rock 'n' Wrestling" hasn't recently been rerun is because there is some kind of disagreement between WWE Entertainment and Cookie Jar Entertainment, the successor to DiC, who co-produced the show ("Rock 'n' Wrestling" *was* briefly in syndication in the mid-90's, before Cookie Jar's buyout of DiC). That disagreement is currently precluding any chances of the show being re-syndicated or even released on DVD ("Rock 'n' Wrestling" was *never even* released on DVD to this point, although in the early 90's a select few episodes were released on VHS tape). Shame.

Well, at least I still have "The Wrestling Album" on CD and "Piledriver" on vinyl. I guess those will have to do for now when I'm in the mood.

He's with his cousin Al at the shoe store. FYI, the producers of Married With Children gave Al the last name of 'Bundy' as a homage to the wrestler.
