Andre, Bam Bam & Wagner Jr vs Canek, Fishman & VIllano III

I recall Dory Funk, Jr. writing about Andre's last tour of Japan in '92. Andre had undergone knee surgery and brought the video of it...Andre was fascinated by the operation. He loved wrestling, and loved being out before the fans. RIP.

You're right. Terry Funk also writes about it in his autobio, "Andre took out a bottle and showed it to us. There was a mass of sizable bones in it, which was the one removed from his knee in the operation." Andre always enjoyed a card game and bottles of wine on Japanese tours. He stayed at one of the five-star hotels in Tokyo and loved his native French food there with The Funk Brothers. AJPW never ran short of bottles of wine, which was kinda painkiller, for Andre anytime and anywhere.

jajaja no mames, el puto bam bam le tenia terror a canek jajaja asi son de culeros los putos gringos, que bueno que andre no lo era, jejeje, aprendan gringos mother fuckers que los verdaderos maestros de la lucha libre somos los mexicanos, lo traemos en la sangre, un mexicano le romperia la madre a cualquier gringo putito jajaja

Hulk Hogan said in an interview that when he slammed Andre at Wrestlemania 3 he was more like over 800 lbs. Hogan tore some lat muscles in the process.

para samukenzo75 va esta nota: temo desirte que esta funcion no fue en el toreo , fue en la arena neza el ultimo bastion delo que fue LLI
OJO QUE LA LENTE NO TE FALLE

Pinche Canek, nunca he visto otro luchador que levantara con el press militar a los rivales con tanta facilidad, uno se imagina que no pesan mas de 10 kilos por lo sencillo que los carga :)

carajo... ahora que la ola de los independientes viene tomando fuerza d nuevo.. derrumban el toreo.. hubiera sido sede d funciones interesantes d nuevo, no komo las lamentables funciones k dio triste A ultimamente en el toreo -.-

totalemte deacuerdo

That video is online, and Andre wasn't as heavy as this, but pretty damn heavy. Canek barely lifted him and hardly slammed him, while Hogan obviously slammed him (and yes I realize Andre was "helping" both of them, just saying).

En esta función de lucha libre se llevó a cabo en el Toreo de Cuatro Caminos hace más de 17 años cuando vinieron importantes figuras de la WWF (hoy WWE) y con mucho aficionado, es una tristeza que el coloso de Naucalpan haya sido derrumbado para nuevos proyectos y el recuerdo pernanezca para la afición de este rudo deporte.
