Time Of Our Lives Wrestling

An interesting little chat between 3 legends of the WOS 4pm Saturday Afternoon Slot - Banger Walsh, Rollerball Rocco and Mick McManus hosted by Gary Newbon

[@michaelchapman6667]

Rocco was the most agile wrestler I ever saw. His matches were always worth watching especially with Marty Jones. Superb talent.

[@MrSeason1steve]

All 3 of them are gone now , But all 3 were great in the ring

[@montyf2165]

These guys were stars, great entertainment, watched by all the family. Legends all.

As Peter(Kendo) said a few years ago.." I suppose you all know that it's a show"!.

[@debraco7748]

Thanks for another great upload

[@psxgunman]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@mal_752]

Both Bobby Barnes and Mark Rocco said they believed it was real fighting and if it wasn't, then no one had told them?🙏

[@cdwattie]

loved watching the wrestling i respect all three of them but what has marc rocco got to hide when he trys to stop tony walsh at 42.00 or there abouts

[@RagingBallHighWycombe]

Rocco being very old school was still in the mindset of protecting the business. Kayfabe was installed in them to keep outsiders away. Exposing it would of killed them. With the advent of the internet and Vincent McMahon coming out and declaring it entertainment changed everything. Pro Wrestling has been a work all the way back to the 1920s But was portrayed as a legitimate contest between personalities who you were pre disposed to either love or hate That's how they sold tickets. Total respect to Rocco for upholding his beliefs, despite the curtain being lifted many years prior.

[@cdwattie]

@@RagingBallHighWycombe but why still keep tight lipped after it was over it’s not like it was going to harm there careers

[@RagingBallHighWycombe]

@@cdwattie I can only presume that because it was how everything was. That his mindset was being a slight on his integrity by smartening up the general public. Totally understand your line of thinking. Possibly similar to those who are apart of the magic circle

[@paulvato]

When did this air?

[@psxgunman]

Not quite sure it was around 2010 or 2011

[@ozzie-sk9dh]

Mick was an absolute Legend. Boooo🤣
