nikita was the best, i grew up thinking he was from russia hahaha uncle ivan as well, great video. miss the old wrestling days, wrestling today just doesn't have it anymore...

They are both so well spoken. Very cool and a testament as to how kayfabe was alive in the 80's.

@pedalpunk57 ....the wwe hall of fame is more of an attempt to honor big name (generally WWE) performers and sell DVD's as opposed to being a legitimate institution created to honor the history of pro wrestling. Doesnt make it bad or good, but we just have to accept it for what it is.

[pedalpunk57]

By the way it's cool to see Uncle Ivan and Nikita together again after all these years....I like especially when Nikita(Scott Simpson) parodies himself as a split personality. These cats are fucking timeless. Bless em' both.

Someone out there please tell me what's more important....Respecting the history of professional wrestling by acknowledging all of it's great performers who left a mark in the industry? Or inducting Drew Carey and Pete Rose?? The answer is obvious.

[pedalpunk57]

Now THESE are guys that should be inducted in ANY Hall Of Fame....Why can't Vince acknowledge the great talents of The Koloffs, Magnum T/A or the other great performers of the 80's? Why is it he only wants to acknowledge what he has created or who he's been linked to in some way? It's like that Adam Savage Mythbusters quote," I reject your reality and substitute my own." He only sees what he wants to see, but the truth is there were many other great performers that could've easily buried him.
