Hope this is made available someday. Earthquake is so underrated as a wrestler. He has the best body slam in history. Also delivered some of the best elbow drops I've ever seen. This guy would destroy the people in wrestling today.

John Tenta deserves all the respect in the World, one of the greatest big men ever and this great figure respects what should be a better regarded legacy. I agree, he could move very well for a big man, I think the sumo wrestling really helped him. Even Bret Hart holds him in high regards. No matter what gimmick he had I was always a fan. I remember being bummed out when he passed. From all accounts he was just a regular down to earth good guy.

There is a lot of toysrus open in canada, and they want to upgrade them with playground for the kids, mpre exclusives etc... Just in my area , i think a 5 toysrus within 20 mins with a car. The clerk told me than the red rooster will be in stock in july, i hope its true, cant wait to buy this fig Right, but that is nothing compared to the amount of US stores (800 stores) that were open when TRU placed the order. I have/had about that many TRU stores around here also. But within the next 13 days they will all be closed.

I was a Hulkamaniac, so I hated him when I was a kid But really, the only time I wasnt a fan was when he was Golga.

LOL, yeah I thought Earthquake really did put Hogan out of action, but he was really filming Suburban Commando or something.

This whole video with the sad music really makes me miss kayfabe. Us older fans really had it great back in the day. Couldn't agree more with you about kayfabe. WWE also needs to stop letting yahoo show reports on who is going to show up on Raw/Smackdown/PayPerViews when its supposed to be a surprise (like when Sting kept showing up). Every time Sting was supposed to show up, yahoo would run an article saying to tune in to see Sting, then when he would show up the announcers on the show would act all surprised like what is Sting doing here. Made the whole thing look stupid. And can someone explain the purpose of spending a few months building Nia Jax as a sympathetic good guy vs. Alexa Bliss only to immediately turn her heel to face Ronda Rousey? Wouldn't it have been better if they made Nia Jax this ultimate heel destroying everyone in her path then put her up against Rousey?

But I can talk about old school wrestling all day long so if you start up a convo hit me up lol.
