Magnum TA would also like to remind you that jagged pieces of wood are not toys. Play safe, kids.

I know the Japanese are shrewd. Now let me tell you where this statement came from. At GAB '92, Akira Nogami was supposed to be tagging with Hiroshi Hase, but was injured so he was replaced with Shinya Hashimoto to go against the Freebirds (Have you ever heard of a more random match than that?) Anyway, in response to the substituion, Magnum TA said the following: "I know those Japanese, they are very shrewd. I'm sure they know what they are doing."As the night wore on, even more racial stereotypes were used.Every strike that Liger, Hase, or Hashimoto hit was now called a Karate Chop. For god sakes, Ventura even said that Hashimoto has been hitting the rice pretty hard. So much for getting the NJPW team over as a legitimate threat for the gold that nite. |

I miss Magnum. He was one of the bright spots for me as a kid, growing up watching NWA on TBS in the 80s.

Magnum TA was the man. It's sad that his career was cut so short. Magnum TA would also like to remind you that jagged pieces of wood are not toys. Play safe, kids. One of my favorite matches, to this day, is the "I Quit" match with Tully Blanchard. |

I loved that match too. Really dramatic and played on great ring psychology.
