Wwf old school- Random Observations

By Scott Keith on 16 April 2023

Hey Scott-
Been watching alot of the old school house shows on the network. Great to have on in the background.
Couple random observations:
One guy who stands out to me as an absolute heat magnet was Don Muraco.
What are your thoughts on him?
Watching these old school cards. I see guys like him and Ernie Ladd as 2 guys that really could have been quick heel transitional champs.
Is “beach bum” the lamest insult that got over as something to get a heal mad?
Going from house shows from late 70s to 84 on is really like night and day. Especially in terms of physique.
Muraco definitely ate his wheaties. And superstar billy graham definitely stopped eating his.
Lastly- listening to Gorilla do solo commentary was fantastic. The action was not as fast paced and he reminded of a baseball announcer trying to fill the time. Lots of good nuggets of information.

Muraco – Great when motivated, wretched when not. Sadly he wasn't motivated a lot of the time so it was a real crapshoot who you were getting.

I'm still amazed that Superstar Graham is still alive based on all the shit he used to pump into his body. Muraco as well to a lesser degree because I think he was on some pretty questionable stuff in the 80s too.
