    That's awesome, I didn't know he was a professional athlete too! Cool life. I only followed wrestling for a year or 2 when I was a kid, but I remember I had a macho man action figure.

    You seem like a George The Animal Steele guy, Dan.

    Roddy Piper was the best. The all time best moment was in the 1980's with Superfly Snuka in Piper's pit.

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    +1, My brother and I always talk about the particular Piper's Pit. Why would anyone in their right mind accept an invitation, only to get hit in the head with coconuts
    Love '83 Topps. Looking to put together a PSA 10 set.

    Well, Jimmy Snuka wasn't in his right mind (legit).

    Lol no, I'm gross looking for sure, but in a different way. There are photos of my ugly mug floating around here somewhere. Also I have no back hair and very little chest hair. TMI?

    I think I may have a photo of you in the wrestling ring but I would not want to post it here without your permission. My only condition is that if you give me permission then I don't have to retract it.

    It's a travesty that it's taken this long to put him in.

    Yeah he needed to be in a long time ago.

    Yes he is.

    The Genius


    This was his best gimmick and the height of his career.




    Andre elimination


    This was his most notable bump. Gets busted open really bad.


    Edit: I just watched the clip. Man Jesse Ventura was awesome on commentary. He split him open with that headbutt. image

    I remember him more for his frisbee throwing character Leaping Lanny Poffo. Got these TTM a few months ago. Edited to add that I kept the WWF / WWE logo off of this custom because I got the feeling he may not sign them if I included it.
