This is what inspires me to be pro wrestler, I would love to get trained by guys like this, I will carry on the old tradition, let them know that I respect for what they have done, I just wanted to give time to thank they old guys for paveing the way for the young and for giving us great wrestling.

All these idiots here talking about Blading, "Look at me, ain't I just so smart, I know all the insider wrestling lingo". Can't just enjoy the match, gotta impress the other morons with how knowledgable they are. Yeah, I know the insider lingo too, but I don't pretend to be an insider and there's nobody here I care to impress. Looking too much behind the curtain tends to cheapen the show.

Best heel moment ever. If only they had those steel chair shots like they do now.

Bruno was the best.Scripting,blading,rehears­ed,whatever you want to say.7 1/2 years as the champ in his FIRST title reign unheard of today.Bruno was the real shit and of course he went by the script but no one can ever tell me that if it was completely legit

he could still not do what he did.A true gentleman and a master of his craft.

I was trained old school by one of the best Jimmy Viliant

Are these the type of matches that people want back? Because quite frankly, I thought it was boring. Barely anything happened. It made me appreciate current matches more.

[Roger Bono]

I believe 1980 I was I attended the Match.
