In Georgia, actually. Correct!

Upon further review, the Muraco-Snuka partnership in the AWA took place in the Early 1970s, not the late-'70s... Which makes more sense, because I thought I remembered reading about them in The Wrestler & Inside Wrestling magazines when I first started selling the papers downtown...

And their steel-cage match a decade later for Muraco's WWF Inter-Continental title at MSG in October 1983 is apparently the stuff of legend... Never saw it, because I was defending my country by smoking PI weed & banging Pilipina Pussy at that very time...

We had read about Mascaras in the magazines well before his arrival in the WWWF, so it was very exiting to see him on television for the first time... Don't recall if I ever saw him live, however...

Where's Dory Funk Junior? He only, like, becomes World Champion in less than Two Weeks!

And no Kowalski, Monsoon, Fred Blassie or Don Leo Jonathan? And who the heck's #8...?

This is exactly how The Wrestler & Inside Wrestling magazines formatted their rankings back then! It's hard to explain to people who weren't even born yet just how much we looked forward to seeing these rankings every month; they were our lifelines to the 'rasslin' world outside of the WWWF...

I had every issue from 1983 - 1989 or so.

The very same thing - falling asleep at the wheel while driving alone at night - caused Magnum TA's paralysis a few years earlier, from which he's never really recovered...:cry:

1976?!? Macho Man must've just finished his minor-league baseball career barely a year earlier... No wonder Lanny looks more pumped 'n jacked in that photo than Randy does... Those eyes...
