I'm listening to the Jericho podcast. I'm amazed by Bruno's memory for the names of people long dead who he probably knew only briefly. Also, I love hearing him do impressions of other people.

Would you be my new best friends?

Bruno's memory really is quite something. I'm listening to an old 2010 interview they did on the Observer with him, and his memory of who he fought/teamed with, how many times, the places they were and even what the gates were like is astonishing.

BAEST MODE!!!
There's not much I can add to Bruno but I wanted to do an episode on him, so I pulled out some Apter mags I came across last year and read a couple of articles about Bruno. The first one is about a controversial loss to Superstar Graham, the other is about training his protégé. Plus I read some lovely ads.

I know it's not talked about as much as the Jericho podcast, and that's understandable, but I remember enjoying his appearance on the Art of Wrestling podcast as well. Colt had said that it was his first time having someone on that he didn't know as a friend, and it ended up being a complete history lesson.

Some say Bruno Sammartino started the Women's revolution.

I'm so glad this exists. Bruno owns. He was a class act and his story is just awe-inspiring.

this glorious monument

Rename the Warrior award to the Sammartino award.
Or the Cena award.
Or the Ziggler award I don't care.

You got it right the first time. And if Dana Warrior doesn't like it, who loving cares? Maybe don't marry a bigoted piece of trash, then.
