Cold Heart and a Weak Mind
Fun days watching the old stuff.
When Hulk came to my town with our very own Crusher!
Iron Sheik was WWF
I can't remember the exact name, but there is a documentary on the AWA & owner, wrestler Virne Gagne.
I HIGHLY reccomend it. It chronicles Verne as a wrestler, owner of AWA & how he controlled the midwestern wrestler, & think the NWA controlled the south.
And when Hulk Hogan came- he left the WWF went to AWA- During this time he did Rocky's movie & Verne wanted rights to his name, he refused it.
I'll just add this: Hogan then went back to the WWF, where startup McMahon said keep your rights to the name and headscarff trade marks are his.
Thunderlips & B.A. Barracus aka Clubber Lang- per this documentary caused wrestling to blow up, end results most of the greatest wrestlers joined the WWF to be like or get the fame of Hulk.
One by one the NWA, & AWA started to drain of their talent in order to go to the WWF turned WWWE.
The documentary shows how Verne was at the doorstep of where McMahon went to (the top), but because of his ways---he fucked it all up.
The docu shows all the best from NWA Ric Flair to WWF Bob Backlund, just a great review of all the top wrestlers & how at some point Verne Gagne father of Greg Gagne was at the top- then lost it.
I can see Will Ferrell make a good comedy about wrestling.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Truly the word -tragic comedy or tregecomedy would come to mind.
Not sure if our brand of wrestling is over where you are at.
Master Hulk Hogan changed the game. B4 him it was limited to demographics mostly whites and to a degree the beer drinkers.
After Hulk Hogan, shit changed. Race, color, creed, ethnic, age, social group, gender- wrestling to a degree had become a sport.
Not sure who would play Hulk Hogan, but I know who Ferrell could and SHOULD play: Vince McMahon

Fucking Rey Mysterio Jr accidentally killed a wrestler in Mexico with a flying kick that apparently made too much contact.
Damn, that's pretty gangster to kill someone in a fake fight...
