    Lou Thesz appreciation thread

    truly the best pro wrestler of all-time and it's rare to find any icons as humble as he was.

          Yep, one of the first big names of wrestlings original golden age and he lived till age 86 in an industry where your lucky to make it to age 60.

          Even though the matches are outdated by today's standands, infact ufc is closer to that times pro wrestling than the wwe is now. Thesz is the Elvis of wrestling.

            I have to seriously disagree with you on that point,This is the Elvis of wrestling...
            Thesz has nothing on this man.

              I wish you would use the sports icon GoldenRyan. This is the second time in 2 days that you have sucked me into a sports thread. It's getting to where I want to avoid all of your threads, which is a shame because you bring up some interesting topics.
