This is from local television to promote his upcoming match against Canadian Heavyweight Champion Angelo Mosca set for June 12, 1983 in Toronto's Maple Leaf Gardens.
Every wrestler who wants to be a "cool heel" today needs to look at the original. Don Muraco was COMPLICATED, man. He gave you a whole character, not just scripted words and catchphrases. The human being he created as The Magnificent One was charming, sullen, gallant, cowardly, cocky, insecure, stupid and wise, at different times. That's why fans liked him, even in an age when they weren't supposed to. And this promo is just a masterpiece of rhetoric--props, metaphors, jingoism, the works. WOW.
canada will be 51st state (it´s been that for long anyway but it`ll become official in the decades to come, .....dub dub dub D O T annexation D O T ca....
@theraptorfan100 I'm well aware of difference between advise/advice and what context they are used in.If you're trying to use inadvertent keystrokes in attempt to discredit me then you're really grasping at straws.A incorrect keystroke 1 key away from the intended key is not uncommon for those of us that type w/multiple fingers at once rather then hunt and peck like a chicken eating corn like you do.Then again you probably have to move your lips when you read just like your doing now.
@theraptorfan100 You seem to have trouble keeping straight just which of us said what.Your limited intelligence I guess.Go back read my posts where did I ever use any threats of violence or intimidation?Nowhere not 1.That's your game.Sad that when you're met w/ opposition your 1st reaction is threats.Shows your mentality .Even sadder still when they are empty threats as we live in seperate nations and there is no way we could meet,but of course thats why you make them in the first place.
@CrankyOldster I agree . On the mike, Muraco was one of a kind!!
