People also thought it could be Ric Flair. It had the entire industry buzzing but Vince couldn't capitalize.

So out of curiosity, I looked it at up, and the Undertaker has a 17 year old son. Are there any public indications that he might want to break into the business? For that matter, what about Bret's kids? Wasn't there a story that at least one of them wanted to get in to it, or was that just people assuming, because hey, it's Bret's kids?

Dallas Hart was training with Lance Storm for a while, but decided not to pursue wrestling. Besides, we should all be worried that Nash's kid and Hall's kid might get into the business. It's bad enough that Sid Vicious and the Sandman have wrestler kids.

It's also kinda weird being a Hart and wrestling but not being trained in the Hart dungeon. It just doesn't sound right.

Been watching old WWE ppv's just for the hell of it, since there's a lot of years that I've missed, and I look up on wikipedia about different wrestlers I don't know much about. Anyway, apparently Tony Atlas lives like an hour away from me.  Anyone else live near other wrestlers?

SamuraiFoochs posted:Seriously that name loving owns Seriously BLADE HART is the stagiest stage name he could have and its his REAL NAME Even WWE would say "gently caress it, keep it" I am also amazed sometimes at the people who become second and third generation stars. It makes sense for people like Cody Rhodes, Orton, and Teddy Jr. because their parents made a good career and life for themselves. But people like MacGillicutty and DH Smith seem weird to me because the industry basically killed their fathers and destroyed their families.

My company rents vehicles and he actually rented a Suburban from us one time.

When I heard that Vader's son was an Offensive Lineman and that Animal's son was a Linebacker, I always dreamed of seeing a game between Oklahoma and Ohio State. I actually knew a guy who played football with Vader's kid. Apparently he is a cool dude and Vader is a monster rear end in a top hat in real life.

Well, if you actually look through the second and third generation wrestlers, a lot of times their dads were not the greatest in the ring. Compare Larry "The Ax" Hennig's career to Mr. Perfect. Stu Hart to Bret Hart. Blackjack Mulligan to Barry Windham. John Cena Sr. to John Cena Jr (Okay, kind of a stretch I know). A lot of times, the kids of average wrestlers become great wrestlers because they got to grow up with the business unlike their dads. Also, a lot of times, the great wrestlers have kids who are average wrestlers because they had such a shadow cast over their careers.
