Huh. Has he ever made a movie that didn't just suck out loud? I really don't know too much about him other than he's famous but his movies have always looked awful to me. And I quit watching wrestling when I was 9 or 10 so I don't know him from that.
No, he hasn't to my knowledge.
I quit wrestling at about the same age, so you've got me there, too.
I grew up in Dallas watching the Von Erichs vs the Freebirds, Kamala the Ugandan Giant, Ice Man King Parsons, Bruiser Brody, Missing Link.....loved it. Saturday nights, Sunday mornings, wrestling was the t!ts! My grandfather even got into it and took me to a couple matches, which was awesome. It was all I could think about, becoming a wrestler was my dream.
Then one day, by dad presented me with the Dallas Morning News, turned to the sports section and an article that was written about professional wrestling. The article was written by a guy who went to matches with a professional stuntman who proceeded to break down all the ways wrestling was fake. It broke my heart. I quit watching it then and there.
To this day, I'm not sure how I feel about what my dad did. On the one hand, I would have figured it out and probably even knew back then it was fake, but didn't want to believe it. So I guess he was trying to do me a favor. On the other hand, it really upset me. Like, why ruin my fun, you know? It's his birthday this week and I'm cooking for him. I might add some laxatives to his cake.
