I have.
>>
>>12941777
I have, but for the most part you are right, mostly attitude ruthless aggression marks and its kinda sad
>>
>>12941826
actually the only one I haven't seen is El Santo but yeah, I've seen everyone else's matches.
>>
>>12941777
I haven’t watched any wrestling before late 2005
>>
>>12941777
From that list the only one I’ve never seen is Santo but I did watch one of his movies about vampires.

Jumbo is among the best wrestlers I’ve ever seen.
>>
>>12941777
I've watched Magnum TA vs Tully Blanchard multiple amounts of times. It's still crazy how violent that match was for the 80s.
>>
>>12941777
I have. Hansen was cool

I watched Bruno Sammartino vs Giant Baba just last week. They went to great lengths to make it seem like some kind of legitimate athletic competition.

>>12941880
This is depressing if true.
>>
>>12941868
I'm the opposite, I think the only one I've seen was El Santo and that's because I wanted to know why Mexicans considered him a god.
>>
I’ve watched full matches of 9 of those people.

I'm in the same boat. I'd watch a Santo match if the opportunity ever presented itself, but I'd rather watch his movies instead.

You can't act like you know shit about wrestling when you don't remember the last name of one of the most over heel midcarders of the WWF in the 80s. Seen multiple Rick MARTEL matches seen the midnight express a bunch, seen barry windham a bunch but you are right about everyone else.

Everyone else I haven't seen, though I should. The more I see of older pro wrestling, the more I prefer to the modern day shitfest we have now.
>>
>>12941880
Anon will shit on this post, but I truly believe the majority of /asp/ hasn't watched wrestling before 2016, except to see matches here and there that are considered classics by YouTubers doing top 10 lists.
>>
>>12943370
Nope. I was one of those 8 year-olds walking around with a 'Suck It!' tee.
>>
>>12941984
>>
>>12943370
the average age on this board is pretty high. there are more than a few of us who saw a lot of these guys in the late 80s and early 90s in nwa and wwf.

>>12941966
You fail to realize the true drawing power of John Cena and how cool it was for a white guy to be a rapper in those days.
