RIP Regis. He was a very big wrestling fan who got wrestlers on the show even when business was bad to help them out.

Yes I read in the obit Dave put up on F4W how he had wrestlers on his show, even when the WWF wasn't as popular. He also treated the boys with respect which I'm sure goes back to him being a fan, RIP Regis

Meltzer said Regis also subscribed to the Observer. He was a fan since the 60s and was good friends with Ernie Ladd and Freddie Blassie.

One of the most important (and best) matches from the 1980's that no one ever talks about. This is the match that *made* Magnum TA. I love this match to pieces.

So as a technical/psychology masterpiece, this match fails. As a completely NUCKING FUTS spectacle of the bizarre and violent, this gets 499 million billion stars. Greatest goddamn finish ever. I peed a little.

Moxley at 24 already being a great promo. Vince saw this guy and thought he needed a potted plant and that he was only the third best guy in The Shield.

What's interesting about that to me is seeing how far he's come. He's still at his core the same raw, flowing promo guy that he is here, but there's a hardness and maturity also that he's grown into.

MTV's YouTube page has been posting old episodes of Cribs



He says Andre died "a couple of days later" after Wrestlemania 3. Maybe he was on so much coke 1987-1993 seemed like just a few days.

The day Hulk Hogan's and the WWE's Wrestlemania 3/Andre lies stop being funny is the day I no longer want to be alive. I crack up Every Fucking Time.

Also Andre weighed over 700 pounds and Hogan had to pick him up without assistance because he was immobile so he tore his lower back muscles off of the bone (although he did take a month off after the match so he could have suffered a back injury.) And he claims after the show John Belushi, who had been dead for 5 years, challenged him to a drinking contest and Hogan won.

:rofl2: I don't know if that was a plant or not but Flair is the greatest. They probably couldn't do that today if it was real. Maybe that kid is really one of Ric's illegitimate children.
