Harley Race had a 30 year career, and was one of a kind. The man lived life on the edge, and cheated death many times throughout it.

Harley Race vs Andre the Giant (Houston January 7, 1979)



This was when Harley Race bodyslammed Andre years before Hulk Hogan did it.

Harley Race vs Terry Funk (NWA Title Match, JULY 1, 1977)



This was before Terry was such a wild man

Harley Race vs Gino Hernandez (NWA World Title Sept 28, 1980)



This was in Houston, if Gino didn't have his demons he would have been a legend.

Ric Flair vs Harley Race (The Race To Starrcade 07/09/1983)

Harley is definitely one of the all-time greats that is a tad overlooked just bc his prime fell right before the boom period of wrestling. But I guarantee you if 75-85 era wrestling was easier to come by he would be so much higher on most people's lists. Dude was AHEAD OF HIS TIME in a huge way, even was criticized for bastardizing the business like how people criticize the constant kickouts nowadays for doing that same thing :lol
