Nostalgia

d fight between HITMAN and STONE COLD is one I will never forget in a hurry. I saw d ring soaked in blood( blood of Stone Cold). Stone Cold was a rising Star den and never wanted to lose d fight to Bret Hart. d one between PAPA SANGO and THE ULTIMATE WARRIOR was not even a fight. I saw Warrior rolling on d ground when Papa Sango brought out his JUJU.

These are my all time great.
Shawn michael and hitman.
I could sit all day to watch fight.
Stone cold Steve and hitman.
Undertaker and Kane.
This fight was epic.fought thrice. Each has to bury one another.

Those were the best fighters and they will remain the best because nowadays wrestling is wack and boring as hell.I just wonder why people love watching it.

Yes those guys are legend when it comes to wrestling I cherish those days!!! :DYes those guys are legend when it comes to wrestling I cherish those days!!!

Na so bros, that time wey my papa get one tenant for house wey get money pass my papa. Na dat man first get wooden coloured TV for our area dat time with one gigantic Upper loader Panasonic video player and sender.
The video will be in the room, there was this device (sender) that will transmit it to their sitting room. We, landlord pikin go come dey peep for window dey watch wrestling. Our friend, the man pikin wey dey inside go help us draw curtain make we feel see wella. My dad wanted to stop us from doing that, so he bought one large multi colour nylon like that and pasted it on the screen of our four legged Black&White TV. So someone in the TV with red attire will turn pink or brown....We couldn't argue with those kids then while watching movies cos they transmits it to our apartment using that sender, if they tell us an actor is putting on red we would definitely agree even if they're lying. Those days ehn.....

...and nothing like power failure those days. God, naija good those days. Hehn!, we children go dey play daddy and mummy dey hide under bed dey do God knows what.
My old man go lock our black and white TV, throw away the key for pocket come dey go office. We go just yimu, go kitchen, take one flat knife use am unlock TV wey we go kick, kick and kick for back before he go show I will give anything to go back those days as long Ishilove go follow me go

There was a time in the early 90s when WWF took over our television sets. Royal Rumble, Summer Slam, Wrestle Mania, No Mercy and other such championships were the only things every guy out there was talking about. 80s/90s were the golden era of wrestling, the blood was real and so was our enthusiasm. Taking you years back right into the ring when WWE was WWF, here are wrestlers from the 80s/90s who we simply cannot forget.


1. HULK HOGAN.

Ultimate warrior died last year
Kamala lost his legs to diabetes

GEJ while fighting all the

then put them to jail." Now

I loved seeing Hulk fight those days.The likes of Undertaker,Ultimate Warrior,Hit man,Viper etc brought glamour to wrestling.Wrestling was my childhood favourite sport.Now,as an adult,Football is my only and most cherished game.Some are still ardent viewers of wrestling till date.

1. HULK HOGAN.

At OP, do you know that many of the wrestlers you listed are DEAD?

Hulk Hogan and Undertaker are still alive. Kamala (The Uganda Giant) presently had both legs amputated due to diabetes disease. Very horrifying seeing him in that terrible condition, helpless on a wheelchair, and very poor.

For those mentioning Mighty Igor, British Bulldog, they belong to an older generation of 70s and early / mid 80s wrestlers. Mighty Igor died many years ago. Mill Mascaras was a very young man then, but now in his 70s.

mankind
