0:17 - George Steele was a teacher and whenever one of his students pointed out that he looked like the wrestler he'd throw them off by saying 'Surely you dont think I'm THAT ugly...'
I can imagine Vince Russo trying to answer these questions. He'd probably answer 2 or 3 correctly and blame someone else for getting all the rest wrong.
Freddie Blassie’s catch phrase, “Pencil Neck Geeks” goes back to when he wrestled in the carnival circuit during the 1930s. There was a guy biting the heads off chickens and Blassie made a joke, and it stuck with him for the rest of his career….kinda like Austin making the 3:16 comment.
Dick Dunn was The Good Doctor. He was in his career NWA Gulf Coast Heavyweight champion, NWA Mid America Southern Tag Team champion, NWA Gulf Coast Tag Team champion, NWA Gulf Coast Alabama Heavyweight champion, NWA Austra Asian Tag Team champion, and NWA Mid America World Tag Team champion.
Jeff Hardy, Sasha Banks, and Vince combined should be its own episode. Ideally, this should be a breaking news episode. Are we seriously going to have to wait until the weekend? PS Nick Khan is an accelerated version of Frank Underwood.
If a wrestler farted then ran off and hid then Jim comes in the area and smells it.. he would be like.. " warlord, where u at?" He knows everything about wrestling😁
I only recently learned about the relationship between Jimmy and Ronnie Garvin myself. Always thought Eddie being Chavo's uncle was pretty unique based on their age proximity but the Garvins got them beat I think.
I’m young so idk alot about the older guys, but was dusty really the son of a plumber or was it just in gimmick? This whole time I thought his real name was dusty Rhodes😂
Verne was definitely a Packer. The Minnesota Gophers were a pipeline to Green Bay back in the day. However... Dick the Bruiser played for the Packers for years. He was the draw in that town.
"The Green Bay Packers signed him in 1949. While Gagne played three exhibition games for the Bears' rival, a debate raged on over whether the Bears or the Packers owned the rights to the young player. In the end, it didn't matter. Curly Lambeau released Gagne; the Minnesota native then left football for good."
