Dick Murdoch and Bill "Dick the Bruiser" Afflis were not the same guy.

Because they thought it was real so all they had to do was set up boiler plate feuds and roll around a little bit. After people stopped being fucking retarded, wrestlers had to either tell really entertaining stories or put on highly athletic matches to draw a crowd. No reason to go back and watch anything before the 80's today.

I get that you had to be tough back then but those matches are like watching paint dry
Imagine wanting to sit for 20 min watching Giant Baba in an armbar

Baba was a better promoter/booker than he was a wrestler.

He was a very good wrestler, especially for a giant. He's every bit as good as Andre was at his athletic peak.

He used his size in cool ways. Really love that underhooking arm wrench he would always do.

We're never getting this style again. And yeah, that's not Dick Murdoch. Murdoch was cockeyed, 50lbs heavier, and 17 years younger.

boring as fuck and you're a contrarian or a nostalgic boomer if you think otherwise. The only way this could be exciting is if you didn't know it was fake

I honestly realized that like 30 seconds after I posted the thread kek
But yeah, it's great and rowdy stuff, pretty violent too, Baba was a kino brawler
I'm gonna watch Baba vs Fritz Von Erich in 1966 next

Being fake doesn't mean it can't be spontaneous or have internal logic. And I'm in my thirties, whatever cute nickname that entails.

All I know is Baba was always the most overpowered guy to pick in the AKI games because he had a long reach chop and gigasized hands

Bruiser looks like an over-grown baby next to Baba, who already has a weird look to begin with
We need more freaks in wrestling
