He's up there at the top of the list for me too. One of the greatest ever on the mic and so smooth and stylish in the ring.

I can't find many pics, but here's one more. And yes, Dusty Rhodes always had a diabolical physique. LOL

I don't remember that. Early 80's maybe?

Clearly a man of elegance & charm.

You don`t recall because you were perhaps in the slammer at the time.

1983 or 1984.

I was a huge wrestling fan as a kid. Having a brother 6 years older than you basically makes you the house "jobber" or "jabronie".

True, but we still watched plenty of TV, especially the quality progaming like WWF, in the slammer.

Gotcha. Yes, the early 80's were good building years for Pro Wrestling. TV coverage was building and the show were better produced.

I'm sure your older bro practied many "airplane spins" and "sleeper holds" on you. LOL.

Sgt. Slaughter's "Cobra Clutch" and the Iron Sheik's "Camel Clutch" were regulars. The latter nearly broke my back, as it felt like I was being ripped in half.
