But does interviews, etc for this upstart league in the south that has a show on Fox Sports Net that shows at 3 p.m. on Friday. I can't remember its name right now.

But is he on the juice, yes. Does the juice make one hyper sexual? especially old-school dianabol, yes. Could he have had homosexual experiences? Well....

It is fake. The results are preordained. However, it is dangerous.

9. They did not have bad luck. |
|
They had drugs. And a father who was insane.
I have no idea about the Iceman.
However, I have heard an interesting story about The Missing Link.

Didn't one of them die of something else though? How was the father insane.
Hey, I remember the Missing Link! Tell us the story!

13. 1 or 2 of them killed themselves |
|
My Missing Link story is only funny on the basic Beavis and Butthead level. Let me leave it at this, I know a gril whose father is one of the top proctologists in the nation.

21. Ray Stevens is considered the greatest in ring performer of the 70's |
|
Not the dork singer. He tutored Nature Boy Ric Flair in the Minnesota territory. The late Ray Stevens could play heel, face and singles and tag team. His mic skills were awesome. What an awesome performer.

24. Was he the original "Crippler"? |
|
In Chicago, we had to deal with Gagne and him trying to push his skinny-ass son as the top babyface, when he was not trying to put himself over. But, we also got Dick the Bruiser, the Crusher borrowed a lot, Bobo Brasil (awesome) and of course Baron Von Rasche. Nick Bockwinkle too, who I always like. Plus the Road Warriors. Road Warriors were the first guys who looked, strait up, like they could kick everybody's ass. Plus they had "Iron Man" as their theme song.
About once a year Andre the Giant would come through also.

20. I assume you heard about Miss Elizabeth |
|
They were shacked up, when she OD'd. I think about a week or two before that the police hauled LL away on steroid and domestic abuse charges (details are fuzzy).
Bottom line - no charges re Miss Elizabeth. Other charges are pending.

I was refering to the trailer-load of steroids they found all over his house when the cops came to investigate what happened to Elizabeth. They assumed he was distributing it because of the quantity they found.

27. I always though LL sucked |
|
He could have been the ultimate heel, but he sucked.
He should always play the upper crust, Drago, health club type guy. He looks puffed up and just does not look legitimately tough.
He could have played Ric Flair writ large - a guy who dresses fancy and will cheat to win. But he is no likable. Flair was a lovable rouge - like Clinton. LL was just an asshole.

Flair is a big-time republican. But...I do enjoy his character.
Yeah, I agree. Lex sucked. The only good thing about him was the torture rack.

It was an effective finishing move.
It at least looked painful.

Benoit is the best wrestler of my generation. He is truly old school. He protects his opponents (except that time he dropped Sabu on his head and broke his neck - but that was years ago and nobody knew what to do with Sabu). Why do you think the only guys in the WWF that really do german suplexes are Benoit, Angle and Guerrero? Because it hurts to give a german suplex (you have the majority of the other persons bodyweight falling on you). If you throw the person too far you can break their neck. Those three protect their opponents.
It may sound strange, but professional wrestling really is an art form. I am as much of the hardcore ECW freak as anyone. But notwithstanding the New Jack dives from the balcony and barbed wire matches, they did give most of their performers enough time to tell a story correctly. The WWF innovation that won the Moday Night wars was to boost the workrate up high enough to tell the story of a ten or fifteen minute wrestling match in 5 minutes.

34. Always had to play second fiddle to Flair |
|
To be fair, the Horsemen were there to make Flair look good. However, looking at WCW cerca 1988 Arn Anderson and Chris Benoit both looked tougher than Flair. And I love Flair. But benoit took a lot of pins to save Flair from looking bad.
