10 Minutes Of Pure Macho Man Greatness From 1985/1986
Nothing better on a Sunday afternoon than watching a 10 minutes video of Macho Man interviews from the mid 80’s. The interplay between him, Miss Elizabeth and Mean Gean is why wrestling ruled in the 80’s. 30 years later and it still stands the test of time. And yes maybe that is the most depressing sentence I’ve ever written. I can’t believe this shit is 30 years old.
Anyway here are my top 10 favorite lines/moments in no particular order.
