ACor58 Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 I knew exactly who you were talking about from the subject line. RIP
Golden Wheels Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 An Atlanta TV station is reporting that he had a massive heart attack.
R. Rich Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Damn. That's sad. He had a long standing feud with my all-time favorite wrestler, the late Ravishing Rick Rude, that was classic. Maybe they'll get to continue their feud now. RIP.
Corp000085 Posted September 23, 2004 Author Posted September 23, 2004 An Atlanta TV station is reporting that he had a massive heart attack. a massive heart attack at age 42 means that the trend probably continues. Ravishing rick rude mr. perfect miss elizabeth all the von ehrichs pillman etc. they all die of drug related problems, whether it be directly or indirectly.
KYBillsFan Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Do any of you guys remember the storyline where he was making fun of The Giant because The Giant was sad about his dad dying? It was the most horrible, ridiculous and yet hilarious storyline they ever had. The high (or perhaps low depending on your perspective) point of that storyline was when Big Boss Man mounted a giant megaphone to the top of his stationwagon and was driving around the cemetary during The Giant's dad's funeral shouting stuff like "Boo hoo, my daddy died!" through his megaphone. He then managed to somehow hook a chain up to the casket and started dragging it around the cemetary. I had never laughed so hard at wrestling before because I never expected them to stoop that low with a story.
CajunBillsBacker Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 One of my favorite memories of him was when he had a fued with the prisoner Nailz.That was intense, especially when Nailz used to use BBM own tools and handcuff BBM to the ropes and beat him down with the billy club. I think they finally settled it in a steel cage when BBM just destroyed him.

NOW i remember that... that was priceless.... oh man, i wish wrestling was still good...
R. Rich Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Yeah, I remember that storyline. You're right stoj; wrestling is nothing like it used to be. In fact, it just plain sucks. I haven't watched any pro wrestling programs in probably 2 or 3 years. It just isn't worth my time anymore.

Wrestling died when WCW began to go under. For as taboo as pro wrestling is, it is a sad time now.

Blah blah blah...") and then one day, during the Boss Man's match, he just came into the ring, handcuffed him to the ropes, and starting beating the crap out of him with the Boss Man's own nightstick. Brutal.

It just isn't worth my time anymore. 43676[/snapback] Wrestling died for me when they changed the style of my all time favorite, The Undertaker from the "Dead Man, Grim Reaper" guy to some "biker guy". I also think there is to many normal street fighting looking guys now. You know, built, long hair, tights, and boots. Wrestling was great when there were guys with unique personality's. Savage, Hogan, Sting, Taker, Andre the Giant, Macho Man, Rick Rude, Steamboat, Big Boss Man, Ultimate Warrior, Jake the Snake, Great Muta, ect ect ect. I could go on and on.
Corp000085 Posted September 23, 2004 Author Posted September 23, 2004 Speaking of remembering... do you remember when earthquake splashed damien (jake's snake)? That was brutal. or when rick the model martel sprayed jake with arrogance and then they had the blindfold match at WM7?

Plus, it was more fun back then. Now, they just cater to the lowest common denominator to get their ratings. It used to be something I could watch with my niece, who was about 5 or 6 at the time (she liked Papa Shango, the voodoo character who also wrestled under Kama and The Godfather). Now, it looks like something that should be on Cinemax. Garbage.

Earthquake (John Tenta) was a hot item for a while, even earning a WrestleMania title shot against Hogan at one time. Martel was a joke as "The Model". His earlier career, even before the Can-Am Connection with him and Tom Zenk, was Martel at his best.

CajunBillsBacker Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 Speaking of past wrestlers, any of you know what ever happened to Tatanka? Did he get fired or something? I used to like him alot.
Corp000085 Posted September 23, 2004 Author Posted September 23, 2004 cajun, you'd have to search, but i believe he might have died too. don't quote me on that because i'm not exactly sure.
