So sad that bad news isn’t around anymore he would be such a hit at conventions,I could listen to him all day.

Impressive. I don't think being promoted to multiple belts should be allowed just from tournament competitions. I'm very confident I could compete in a white belt karate and beat everyone or even a Judo or boxing but that doesn't make me a high level martial artist or golden gloves. It just means I understand the martial part better than the artistic part of the style/s.

Bad News was a legit bad ass, but seems like he kept it in check for the most part. That WWE locker room around 1988-1990 was probably the most bad ass locker room in wrestling history. Bad News, Haku, Andre, Race, Barbarian, Dynamite Kid, Rick Rude, Hercules, Koko, and Jim Duggan. I probably missed a few guys, but damn id take these guys over the current locker room in a street fight any day.

On a somewhat related note, I just looked-up and the daughter of Smith Hart who he was talking about died just 2 years ago (no cause of death mentioned) and he himself died on her 22nd Birth-Day and she died almost 15 years later to the day of. Crazy. Also since he mentioned Wim Ruska, I guess that’s another WWE lie (if they ever said it). Kurt Angle was not the first Olympic Gold-Medalist in wrestling.
