All our heroes are finally safe. Mr. Fuji passed away at age 82.
I only know of him as an all-time great manger that smashed, hooked, chopped, and caned my favorite baby faced heroes. You always had to keep your head on a swivel and reflexes ready when Fuji and his salt were at ringside.
However in almost every interview where he is brought up it is about how tough of a guy he was, and how great of a heel he was (especially as tag-team wrestler).
Today's Google doodle honors the iconic luchador Santo.
Wrestling had a whole different meaning to Mexico during the 50s through the 70s. Luchadors like Santo and Blue Demon were real life superheroes, symbols of justice, and film stars. America has really loved wrestling at points in time, but we have never placed our wrestlers on pedestals like Mexico did during the golden years of Blue Demon and Santo. It really isn't to far from Hellboy in Mexico
They lived thier gimmicks; they were rarely if ever photographed without thier masks. One of the great joys I've had in my wrestling fandom has been really learning about these guys over the last few years.
Hulkmania has nothing on those guys. I should have also included the luchador Mil Mascaras with Blue Demon and Santo. Fun fact Mil Mascaras's family is pretty legendary two of his brothers were famous luchadors (though not as famous as Mil) and his nephew is one of my favorite Mexican wrestlers working today, Alberto "El Patron" Del Rio
I've been struggling with my thoughts on the former Shield members. I think 2 of the 3 are main eventers, and Dean Ambrose needs to be chasing a tv title. I just don't think he has ever been remotely believable as anything other than a joke in the WWE. We should be revolting against his ascension not Roman's.
Right at 2 weeks ago I got invited down to southern Louisiana to film/do commentary for the second Elev8 Pro show. Got there 4 hours before doors open.Set up our table. When the promoter came over. "Hey do you guys mind helping keep an eye on Pentagon JR? My wife and I will be busy and no one else here speaks Spanish."
Of course we said we would be happy to help keep an eye on Pentagon JR. Pentagon walks over,and without his mask and makeup he looks so very different,sits down in a chair. Pulls out his laptop. And I look over and he is reading the newest issue of The Walking Dead.
So using hand gestures,the 10 words of Spanish I know,and pointing at panels Pentagon Jr and I "talked" about The Walking Dead comic.
Right before they opened the doors,Pentagon went to the back and got into his outfit.He came out and motioned for me to follow him.I walked over to his table,where the promoter explain that Pentagon wanted to give me something for helping out. He wanted to give me a shirt,but the largest size he brought was large. So I got a hat. Then this picture with him.
After the pic he kept pointing to my shirt. And saying something to the promoter. Turns out he was wanting to buy my shirt off me.
