re: rank your favorite wrestlers of all time, a top ten

quote:

---

Andre is standing in the ring. Ultimate Warrior gets announced. He SPRINTS out, runs around the ring, gets in the ring, goes back and forth on the ropes several times, clotheslines Andre two or three times, then pins him and sprints out the ring and then backstage.

I was so upset. I was like "That's it??"

I know exactly what you mean! I was a junior in high school at the time and he was my favorite. The WWF (at the time) was coming to Lake Charles for a house show and I drove to the Civic Center right after I got out of school to get tickets. I got 2 ringside seats, we were literally right at the aluminum fence surrounding the ring, I was so pumped to see the Ultimate Warrior in person!

And just like you said, Andre the Giant comes out, gets in the ring and stands there.
Warrior's music comes on, he comes running to the ring, does exactly what you said, 1,2,3 and runs back to the back. I still have some pictures of it. All 3 or 4 that I was able to take while he was out there.

I said the same thing, "That's it? That was fast." I bought one of those black and white banner things that the WWF had at the time to hang on your wall of him. There was one of him and one of Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake too.
