I thought the story was that he lived in a trailer with his mother, who banged everything in site, and that some of these guys used to beat the **** outta Vince.

Nice to see one of my all time favorite tag teams and one of my all time favorite wrestlers going into the HOF, the US Express. Barry Windham and Mike Rotunda.

Seems odd to induct them as a team, rather than individually. I don't even think they were together that long. It likely has to do with wanting to put the whole family in at once if they're inducting Bray, but not have them take up too many spots this year. Those guys should each go in individually. But then again, it's not a legit HOF, so what does it matter,?

When you wrestle together as the champions at the inaugural WM, longevity of the team feels less important.

How did they get the award envelope to float like that?

Mox is the first modern global triple crown champion, having held the top title in WWE, AEW, and now NJPW.

Just watched The Dark Side about Ed Leslie/Brutus Beefcake. The thing that's surprising to me is that today you wouldn't even know that he'd had his face brutally smashed in in that boating accident. From the way they described that reconstruction surgery, that must be one hella talented surgeon.

If you think that's bad, wait until you see what Becky was wearing.

According to the title, this is the greatest wrestling promo ever.

It seems to be from the WWA territory (Indiana).

RIP Kevin Sullivan. I always thought his double stomp was one of the all-time bad finishers in wrestling history, but I nonetheless did appreciate his contributions overall. Always seemed like a pretty cool guy in shoot interviews.

Had no idea he passed

. He was great. Iirc, he did invent the hanging tree of woe to run his knee into the midsection which is infinitely better than the double footstomp and still used in many variations today. RIP Kevin Sullivan

Somehow he had at least a couple of very memorable matches. vs. Benoit at GAB 96 and w/Foley vs. The Nasties at Slamboree 94.

He seemed in really poor health in the recent WCW documentary. Bummer.

Sullivan's look in the 70's (top picture) may surprise some people.

I've seen recent pictures of him on social media where he was using oxygen and I think they may have been asking for help with his medical bills. One of the better minds to ever grace the business IMO and a great interview when I've seen or heard him speak post-career.

Afa (8/16) and Sika (6/25) both passed away within less than two months of each other. What a rough summer for the family.

RIP Sid. One of my very favorites from my childhood. Always loved his mid-90's WCW theme:

He also had one of my favorite moments in wrestling. Sadly not streaming anywhere but the network. At Slamboree 1993, he was announced as Col. Parker's new charge and came out to squash Van Hammer in 30 seconds.
