Nash should have jack knifed the guy on the concrete.

Guys, OLE BIG can chime in on this one as he knows I was probably the originator of the "X-Pac heat" phenomenon. HATED the guy. Just something about him. Not to mention one of my criteria for a wrestler has always been I have to at least believe they would kick my ass in real life......Sean doesn't pass that test... haha
All that said, and no jokes, I totally commend the guy for coming forward about this and wouldn't make any jokes about it. 10 yrs ago.....might have been different...am I maturing? I sure hope not.
What an awful thing to go thru and I give him so much respect for what he made of himself. Most in his shoes wouldn't have accomplished what he did. I know we all like to say that it was only because he was friends with Hall and Nash, but have to give the guy credit, he was a well above avg worker. And let's face it, the more you know about the biz you realize that 75% of "making it" is who you know. And who could blame the guy for wanting to hang-out with the "cool crowd?"
You and me both. That's why when WCW fired him and Hogan made the remark "Syx couldn't cut the mustard" aka "You stink and are a zero in the business", I started laughing.

No problem. As I've mentioned on here before, I lost A LOT of respect for the guy after those phone tapes were leaked.
Want to know something funny? Years ago, I was hanging out the other trainees backstage at an indy show, and I made some kind of light-hearted crack about Hogan. This one young trainee (couldn't have been more than 17) took such offense to my JOKE, that he launched into a 400-word thesis about "everything Hogan's done for the industry." Honestly, he would not have been that upset had I insulted the grandmother who raised him.
Regardless of how you feel about Hogan, COME ON...it was a f'n JOKE!! I quickly learned that many wrestlers are actually some of the biggest marks.
That's because you have idiots that take everything far to seriously. You see it on here all the time. One guy makes a comment, then next thing you know, a fucking book is being typed out with paragraphs, history lessons and quotes from google.

Hogan's family is fucked up. Not Hogan. He did what any father / husband does and that is go out and work to make money for his family. All those ingrades did nothing, never worked a day in their lives and spent money all day. You can even see truth to it in episiodes of Hogan Knows Best.

Warrior is and always will be a prick. Bottom line. This guy is so blackballed in wrestling that not one person wants anything to do with him. Not one person has anything godd to say about him. Why is he attacking Hogan? JEALOUSY. Major jealousy. The guy was given the ball to run by the WWE after WM6 and he dropped the ball bigtime. The ratings went down, thus putting the title back on Hogan once he came back from filming Suburban Commando. All these attacks on Hogan are pathetic. Hogan put wrestling on the map and made it HUGE. Just because the guy gets divorced (like the other 20 million people in the states do anually, they make a stink about it. Hogan has admitted his party days of marjuana use and steroid use, etc. Its the pot calling the kettle black. Steroid use, marjuana use and even coke use is used by 90% of the wrestling world. Why single Hogan out? Its a joke.

That is pretty good considering the source. I am not a Foley fan, but I suspect he is correct. That almost gives me a little respect for the guy. I said almost, Show.
Foley is a glorified stuntman. Flair was right on the money with that one.

I am dating myself, but that was way before the Horsemen days. Valentine was with him though. I would have taken my dad in a cage against either one, although I know Valentine would be tough to handle. I'm sure my old man would have had a few reserves to call in had they wanted to make it a tag-team match.
Valentine was tough as nails. A good worker too.

No. But looking back, he was extremely friendly to my mom one night when was saw him after a match in my hometown when I was very young. Good thing he didn't try to hard, my dad would have put an end to Space Mounain that very night.
Lol...not if he had Arn, Tully and Ole with him
