Bret Hart will always be my favourite.

Ric Flair - truly is the best of all-time.

Macho Man - always delivered in the ring, and even though some of his promos were crazy, he had many good ones

Hulk Hogan - great heel and great face. And told me to take my vitamines

Austin - total badass

So here's 2 trivia questions for the rasslin' fans here:

- name the masked wrestler in the above videos ( hint: without a mask he was part of a well known real life brother tag team ) ????
- what name did his brother wrestle under during his WWF stint ????

Well those trivia questions turned out to be as popular as a long Ahmed Johnson promo. Anyway - here's the answers:

- the masked wrestler was The Super Destroyer ( Scott " Hog " Irwin who formed the tag team of The Long Riders with his real life brother Bill Irwin).

1D9C693135F674F7ECF96BC85F324A31FD10E3E7




- Irwin is probably best known as The Goon in the WWF.

I thought about it but came up with nothing even close to the answer. Also not convinced about the "well known" tag team aspect...
 
"Gauthier's father, Martin, is a bodybuilder who was named Mr. Canada in 1984. Gauthier's grandfather, Denis, was a professional wrestler and Mr. Canada in 1964, as well as a runner-up for Mr. Universe. Gauthier's uncle, Denis Jr., played 554 games as an NHL defenseman. But league evaluators were equally fixated on the fact that Gauthier's grandfather married Joanne Rougeau, a member of one of Canada's most famous wrestling families whose brothers were the 1980s World Wrestling Federation tag-team duo the Fabulous Rougeau Brothers." How Julien Gauthier went from workout warrior to ascendant Rangers winger

Looks like The Rock to me.

It has to be Paul Diamond. Pink Floyd - The Dark Side of the Moon - Max Moon - Shine On You Crazy Diamond - Paul Diamond
 
Watching the first Survivor Series on the network, and on the tag team elimination match, and I gotta wonder, has there ever been a jobber tag team with two guys as physically put together as the Young Stallions? They never won much but they had a great look
 
That segment is great. Shows how Austin managed to increase his popularity while not wrestling.

I know it shortened his career, but I don't think Austin gets as popular without the neck injury. When he wasn't wrestling from August to about December 1997 (other than a few matches), he was doing some awesome non-wrestling stuff that added so much to his character. Of course, there was the first stunner to McMahon during that time.

Truth and its opposite of today in wwe when we see everyone wrestle way way too much. A few minutes here and there of Austin being a redneck sob were good enough to last longer then a 20 minute Rollins match.
