Road Warriors What A Rush
What A Rush is a catch phrase that was used by the Road Warriors during there wrestling career and even though they no longer wrestle they will never be forgotten. When you talk about tag teams the Road Warriors have to be put at the top of the list. The first time I seen them wrestle you knew they were something special. No matter what wrestling federation they were in they won tag team gold. No other tag team can claim that feat. Knowledge as Hawk and Animal they had a loyal following.
If you ask anyone that wrestled them they will tell you they were non-stop in your face guys. They were great on the mic and Manager Paul Ellering was the straw that stirred up The Road Warriors. He knew exactly what to do and say to keep them on top. Without Paul Ellering they may not have been so successful.
They will easily go down as the greatest of all-time. Hawk died before they ended there run which was kinda of sad. It would have been nice to see them end it the right way. No matter what no one will match what they accomplished.

What Has Happen To My Pro Wrestling?
Okay I will admit I am one of those professional wrestling junkies from way back. I watched Georgia Championship Wrestling every Saturday Night when it was on. Yes, this post may not be as sports related as I usually talked about, but I wanted to talk about the decline of this once popular sport. OMG did I just call it a sport. Okay, sports entertainment is the more proper term as do not want to offend anyone. I have over the years watched professional wrestling go downhill and it looks like there is no end in sight.
During the peak of Professional Wrestling stars like Hulk Hogan, Randy "Macho Man" Savage, Superstar Billy Graham, and Ric Flair were megastars. Most of these have retired or died, and some just do not wrestle anymore. Of course there was a lot of names I did not mention and in the comments mention your favorite wrestler as I would love to know who you cheered for. Fast forward today and you have professional wrestling without the stars anymore. The wrestlers like The Undertaker, and Triple H are just getting to old to do it anymore.
The WWE and others have struggled to find those big name stars that fans have come to expect from them. Fans instead are being treated to wrestlers way passed their prime and that is a shame. During the 80's and 90's when wrestling was at it's peak new faces could always be found, but that is not the case anymore. Yes, professional wrestling is in decline and I do not think it will ever get back to where it once was anytime soon.

Ric Flair One Of A Kind In Professional Wrestling
Ric Flair is one of a kind and still thrills crowds on a daily basis. The Nature Boy as he is known has fans from virtually all sports and continues to grow in popularity. Flair has wrestled for a long time and it has taken a toll on his body. Below is a video done in 2009 where Flair talks about his career and other things. Flair is one of a kind and maybe the greatest professional wrestler of all-time.
