1970s Bowery was skid row, the area where the homeless and derelicts existed. When I was a pre-teen boy we rolled through the Bowery in our church bus and the pastor pointed out a stumbling wino. "Look at that poor wretched soul drinking from a large vessel of alcohol!" For years afterward, he had me thinking that a bottle of wine was gigantic.

Well, you mentioned Harley Race. He actually was in the WWF in the 1980s and he was in his 40s during that time. I doubt anything was mentioned about his age. He was, but he wasn't a main event guy. Hogan vs. Race was the main event of house shows all over the U.S.

Well that plot came from the same mind that thought his exhausted 525 pound client should defend his newly won title against one of the greatest wrestlers of all time minutes after winning the title. Mr Fuji in kayfabe was a horrible manager. Yes, thats true, yet Squirrel Master has loved all things Mr. Fuji, since I was a kid.

This has a rep as one of those WTH? angles/matches that just didn't make sense. It confused the hell out of the audience, because the way it played out, they thought POP turned face and helped poor helpless Fuji up after the evil Demos roughed him up and abandoned him. I think thats what made it such a gangster moment: the Powers of Pain dusting off Mr. Fuji and handing him back his derby.

I'm guessing next time we'll see Humberto will be on WWE Main event (the show) or on either Raw or Smackdown complete with the Joe McHugh memorial "Already in the Ring" entrance ...and he'll be repackaged as That Herb.

"I HAD PEAS B'FO!" This was a perfect time to form a team of loud and crazy parolee Luther Reigns with his giant bodyguard Big Show having his back. They could have attacked Tazz to begin their run.
To be fair, the segment as it was, is memorable.

Bill Watts pummelled Michael Hayes in UWF, Hayes was loopy after catching that.

On his long fateful walk to the limousine, Mr. McMahon should have fired Paul London on the spot. "What the f*** are you smiling about, pal? YOU'RE FIRED!"

Oh, oh, and my absolute favorite of all time and I can't believe I forgot this one - Eddie Gilbert and the Russians taking down Bill Watts. Everything about this was so well-done, even Ultimate Warrior didn't f*** up his role in it. They busted Watts upside the head with a shovel and covered Watts with the Russian flag!

I loved it when the Fabulous Freebirds and Samoan Swat Team beat down of the Road Warriors inside the steel cage.

IMO Giant Gonzalez had no business being anywhere near a wrestling ring.

Arn Anderson has always been the quintessential tough guy in my book. Whenever he calls someone out, that dude had best come prepared to deal.

I'm just here to say that Herzog's "Aguirre, the Wrath of God" was brilliant.

I don't watch, and haven't watched a full episode of Raw or Smackdown in over six years. I watch an occasional video on YouTube when something big happens, but my main access to WWE now is through this board. I like to keep up with the behind the scenes, and currently, the complete shit show that is this company. However, I have no desire to watch their product. This is my approach to wrestling in general. I love the inner workings, but the product itself overall just doesn't interest me. QFT. What the former WCW champion just said.

Eddie was our Papi. No doubt he'd be at or near the top of the card at all times had he lived. R.I.P.

They should have been the catalyst for a tag team division * Billy and Chuck * The Pink Grapefruits * The Dicks * Da Gay Boyz * Too Queer * The Flames

I think the opposite: send down a top talent to NXT for star power.
