WrestleMania III Live Discussion - January 23, 2020

[Barry Poppins]

Honky really fucked Jake up with that guitar shot

Always felt Jake may have been doing a few things before Honky's hit, but the hit really fucked him up worse.

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

Hell yeah Jake

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

Second best guy named Jake in history

 

[Barry Poppins]

Jake Roberts with Alice Cooper.

 

[Hoss]

Ric's my guy. Out of any "old school" wrestler, he remains my favorite to watch.

 

[3:10 to Booty]

from what I understand the guitar wasnt gimmicked and it fucked some of his vertibrae up for real

 

[3:10 to Booty]

Jake was so fucking smooth

 

[Barry Poppins]

from what I understand the guitar wasnt gimmicked and it fucked some of his vertibrae up for real

Honky denies that to this day even though anyone with two eyes could see that fucker wasn't gimmicked.

 

[3:10 to Booty]

his promos were intense and amazing

 

[3:10 to Booty]

Honky is delusional

 

[Switchblake]

I feel like as a wrestling match scene in the scope of today's wrestling, it's nothing, but viewing it from the lens of 1987, holy shit it's THE match of the decade.

Exactly. I'd rather watch today's best over this but you gotta consider the circumstances. This was special.

Agreed. This might be why some call it overrated, but for the time this blows the rest away.

 

[Barry Poppins]

There will never be a talker like Jake.

 

[3:10 to Booty]

and a self mark

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

He was such a great talker, and the mystery around him made him one of the first "unique" wrestlers

 

[Mitch Buchannon]

Honky was a great talker too
