I was huge fan back in the late 70s through...early 90s. I was drifting away when the Rock and Stone Cold were the big thing. I have zero interest since then. My last hoorah was some of the early video games.

I was at WrestleMania 1. Used to go to matches in Nassau Coliseum with my dad. Dusty Rhodes and that late 70s era.

Loved the WCCW broadcast on channel 61 I think, VHF. The Von Erichs and the Fabulous Freebirds. AWA/NWA.

Fun memories. Me and a couple friends invented a D&D style wrestling game. It was amazing fun creating our own wrestlers and doing the artwork.

I want to see Roman bring in more family members to go against the Usos. I think it culminates with the Usos bringing in backup of their own which will lead to the return of The Rock.

Yeah i remember the old WCCW shows. The story of the Von Erich Family is one of the darkest things I've ever seen. 3 suicides.

Truly a Texas Tragedy.. I can't believe what happened to the Von Erich's. I think they have two

Would be crazy if they brought in Jacob or Zilla Fatu

I can't remember the specifics but, you created a wrestler and we had categories you rolled dice in order to build your guy strength/speed etc. Finishing moves were picked. Matches were dice games like D&D. It was 37 years ago or more. I can't remember all the rules but, we had a lot of fun.

It would make too much sense not to.

I think Zilla is still working with Booker T at his wrestling school

Raw needs something fresh to make it entertaining again. Rollins-Balor isn't going to do it for me. I'm glad Ciampa is back and maybe a DIY chase will breathe some life back into the show.

They need to push LA Knight to the moon and give him a ton of mic time. That guy can really talk, yeaaah

Too soon for him to get a world title, but give him a Midcard title first and let him do work

Mike, Chris, and Kerry all committed suicide. David died of Enteritis, and the first was 6 year old Jack who died of electrocution. Truly tragic indeed. Their feuds with the Freebirds were legendary and really kicked off having larger factions in the industry. Great thread.

I went to a WWF show at the Nassau Coliseum back in high school. I remember the big tag team match was between Dominic DeNucci and “Irish” Pat Barrett vs The Blackjacks.
