That's sad, I actually used to like the old WWF my son and I used to watch it quite a bit when he was a little kid, Macho Man and the Hulk were his favorites, I liked the Undertaker and Hacksaw Jim (who also looks a lot like Ernie)..
 
Ken, I was lucky enough to grow up in Louisville with the AWA. Every Sunday morning I watched wrestling. My dad would also take me to Louisville Gardens and watch it live one tuesday night a month. I could go on and on about the older wrestlers. Now it seems they all got older and changed their names.

See if you guys remember any of these names:wink:.
Koko B Ware (The Birdman), Bill Dundee, Jake the snake Roberts, The Bushwackers, Jerry Jarrett and Jeff Jarrett, Tojo Yamamoto, George the animal Steele - who always ate the turnbuckle after his matches, and for you Ken - The Honky Tonk man with The mouth of the south Jimmy Hart as his manager:biggrin:. And of course the big names The Iron Sheik, Hulk Hogan, Rick Flair - WHOOOOOOO, Andre the Giant, The four horseman. Man absolutely to many to list. That was roughly the late 80's. Those were the days of wrestling.
 
Those were the days. My fav. were the British Bulldogs and Roddy Piper. Just don't tell my wife WWF was my favorite thing to watch growing up, I'd never hear the end of it.
