NXT WAS OK TONITE...BUT WHY DO I FEEL WHEN I WATCH NXT I AM WATCHING FEAR FACTOR WITHOUT JOE ROGAN Because it was designed with the intention of being partially a reality show. The way I feel, whatever gets one of the greatest wrestlers of our time, Brian Danielson, the exposure he deserves, I'm all for it.

hey ill just read and not post again...like bobby heenan said it's dead and it's not coming back I'm all for old school discussion, and am glad you folks got this thread going. All I was asking was start a new thread for each topic to keep things clear and easy to search and follows. Or, you can stop posting. Your call.

I was never in the ring with anyone who ever tried to shoot on Andre. He was a kind gentle man, but when riled he did not know his own strength. I would imagine anyone who tried it, better get him the first time or it would be bad news. Just my humble opinion.

Never met Johnny Long, but I believe he was from Rome, Ga. I will ask around and see if I can come up with some info for you.

nickgulasmark - in regards to Johnny Long:
His real name was William Strozier and he started in the early 50s under the name Billy Strong. He started using the name Johnny Long in Tennessee in the early 60s. He was Harley's first partner (Harley as Jack Long) but it was only for a few months. Johnny was a mainstay in Tennessee into the early 70s. During the mid 60s he worked in Georgia and the Gulf Coast as "Bob Dalton".
BTW, he was not the same Johnny Long that was married to Moolah. That Johnny Long was active in the 1940s.

I remember when I first started going to wrestling in the early 60s that the Masked Destroyer was unmasked in Atlanta as Johnny Long. I assume he was the same around Tennessee and the Gulf Coast but I don't think I ever saw him come back through again.
