Macho Man died today.

When you have older siblings, you never really get to pick what to watch on tv. Early Saturday morning and weekday afternoons were mine, otherwise it was a lost cause. Occasionally, I would get to watch the Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show at 11 AM on Saturdays, but usually, it was this.



Then, when we would borrow or rent a VHS player, my brother, Mark, would borrow vhs wrestling tapes from his friends so we could watch Summer Slam, Royal Rumble and WrestleMania. You see, Pay Per View wrestling events used to be RARE instead of every other week.

It wasn't cool or normal for a girl, but I did finally admit to liking wrestling although until The Rock came along, my favorites were always those with kick-ass pets like Koko B. Ware and The British Bulldog...Matilda was awesome!

The sad thing about wrestling though is that they come to such tragic ends that having a heart attack and crashing your car doesn't seem too bad. Still, I know he will be very missed in Tampa Bay and wrestling.

Koko B. Ware and the British Bulldog (RIP) Koko is still alive.


Yes, "Tama" considers Dwayne Johnson as a cousin.

My dad was genuinely surprised; we used to live in Atlanta and would go to the matches. I met Sting when I was 4. I used to love wrestling, even though I know the outcome is pre-determined. And it really is a sad sad day.
