Is it just me or do all Wrestlers eventually die under such horrible circumstances? Some curse on them or what?
Thnik bout Owen Hart, Andre The Giant etc. etc.

Tragedy again, I know most people dont like wrestling but some do and lots watched it when growing up, and although Owen's was most tragic, theres a list of them who're not around now

Gorilla Monsoon
Curt Hennig
Owen Hart
British Bulldog 'davey boy' Smith
Andre the Giant
Texas Tornado

and obv more from natural causes but many aren't, perhaps its the steroids, but these guys bust their asses to entertain, and u gotta give them that

Oh yeah I forgot davie smith
wtf really happaned to that young fella?

I also saw a documentary about some WWF Wrstelers the other day which was really heart-touching. Nowadays I obviously dont watch it anymore (my 17 yo brother does addictively though ) but that film really affected me as it showed the people behind their superstar roles.....They showed jake the snake roberts totally wasted, a real junkie, meeting his daughter for the first time after years, cactus jack's family and how they suffer from him getting battered on tv..
yeah..
shame bout perfect tho


Posted by XxremedyxX on Feb-11-2003 14:28:

No way?!?! Is this fake or for real? I mean i haven't watched wrestling in a long long time but i definitley know who he was. He was kinda old but definitley a legendary wrestler. I remember him when he was Mr. Perfect and then went to WCW as Curt Hennig. I'd like to know what happened.... I never knew British Bulldog died, how did that happen also? Owen Hart touched me the most though because i was at a house event a few days before it happened. I got pictures of him and shit he really was a good wrestler too.

Ahh... I actually thought it was someone important...

then again, if junkie xl died, it'd touch you, but not some of us like me, simply cos i dont rate him as important enough, but its down to preferences

Always remember that a person who u see as a nobody is somebody to sum1 else

Yeah, I like Benoit too, although I don't watch much wrestling anymore. He's from my home town too

Anyway, I can't believe that another person I used to watch on tv is dead. What is it with these wrestlers and tragic demise? It's been said before but yes these people work their asses off to entertain and they really love what they do. It's unfortunate that what they have to go through to be able to do what they love (ie roids, etc) is probably contributing to their deaths.

we'll i can't guarantee it but i'm pretty damn sure more people have heard of curt hennig aka mr. perfect than jxl.

that's what I think to; and if they do, it's because of "A little less conversation". Wrestlers must be respected, they're real professional guys who bust their asses day in and day out to their fans. (I'm a Wrestling fan right here). So if you don't know him at least don't say "I thought he was someone important".
Cheers!

Yep unfortunately the only way to be a star it seems is to have 270 pounds of muscle mass. With the monopoly now of the WWE it's more and more difficult to get your spot and the way to distinguish yourself is to be bigger and stronger than the others. I understand their position, it's their job on the line. But then you don't go past the age of 40 or 50. That's what happened with the Bulldog, for instance (died at the age of 39). He and Dynamite Kid were smaller than the usual and so to make it big they had to take many steroids. I really hope fans become aware of this and drop the Triple Hs and start demanding for more agile and less steroid wrestlers such as Kurt Angle or Jericho to name just 2 so that they understand that it's not how much steroids you take but how much talented you are.
It's a damn shame all wrestlers die due to suicides, drugs and all other sorts of deaths except naturally.
Cheers!

Yea, Owen Hart's death was the most tragic He died in the ring doing what he loved. I used to watch wrestling when I was younger (I grew out of it now, i guess).

someone mentioned the Bulldog...what happend to him??


Posted by b0bb0 on Feb-12-2003 00:05:

Damn that sucks!! I wonder what happend!!


Posted by jason00nunes on Feb-12-2003 00:06:

mr. perfect was awesome! i remember when he always had his little bit to show how perfect he was....like throwing a football and then running half way across the field and catching his own pass (really fake but it still brought a smile to my face)

omg, i was just going to mention that same bit
that was pretty cool
he always had that stupid "i'm perfect" smile on his face
definitely one of my all time favorites

I think one of you mentioned a documentary.
"Beyond the Mat" is excellent
made a couple years ago i think
all wrestling fans should view
