    Those are what we call "bump boys" or "jobbers", cause all they do is make the star look good. One guy I've been reading about, Bruno Sassi (Currently with the group, Phi Delta Slam of NWA-TNA) has basically made a nice career of losing all the time. He has a nice home, a couple of cars, boat, etc ALL PAID FOR!...He says, he'd do it all over again. Crazy, but he's most likely the richest loser I've ever seen!

    What about those thumb tacks in the ring. Even if you're a fat fucker, that's got to hurt. And I thought Flair did a decent job putting Show over, but you could clearly see him talking to Show a number of times. When the fans chanted 'Thank you Flair' at thte end of the match, it made me think about it and appreciate it more, he always went above and beyond taking bumps and cuts to make it a memorable match.

    Does your forehead look like you sleep face down on barb wire every night?

    Hey Nacho Man....With your poor sentence structure, you confused me. But then again your wrestling knowledge is about on the same level as your grammatical skills.

    Naa, only did hardcore once and the guy I was wrestling stunned me with a stiff uppercut, then hit me square in the head with a chair. After I came to, they showed me the chair...It looked like a cartoon where someone's head was imprinted to it. Earlier in the match he hit me so hard in the back with the chair I was spitting and coughing up blood. But luckily no facial damage except for the scar above my eye when a guy tried to do a legdrop off the top rope and missed.

    About ten years ago I was waiting for a flight at the Cleveland airport and ran into Dusty Rhodes. I chatted with him a few minutes and couldn't believe how scarred up his forehead was. I guess twenty years of razor blades across the forehead will do that to you

    About three years ago, I saw Ric Flair when he was watching his daughter, Ashley (who played for Providence), play in a state volleyball playoff game @ McDowell High. I couldnt believe how much he's let himself go. His skin looked like tattered shoe leather. His platinum blonde hair wasnt platinum, it was a putrid yellow. He smelled like the R.J. Reynolds Plant cause he was a massive chain smoker. Its amazing of what the road can do to a person.

    Also, he was a prick. I mean just down right rude to people.

    i saw Ric at the NCHSAA State Volleyball Championships held at NC State in November of 2004 when we went to see our team from Mooresville play for the 3A title. my wife and i stayed all day and watched every match in fact. Providence played Rose in the 4A title match and we saw another Ric Flair. he talked to EVERYBODY and couldnt keep his hands off his baby grandaughter (im guessing it was his grandaughter). his family sat right behind us and we got his pic holding the child. maybe it was the spot light, maybe it was the championship aura, who knows, but he impressed me as a different guy right then. i'll try and dig out that pic and post it if my computer skills will allow.
