There was a wrassler named Rikishi and his trademark move was to force his opponent to motorboat his huge rear end.

It's funny Yokozuna and him are just the most generic terms to not confuse anyone too much.

Sumo wrestling loving owns, check out a basho on YouTube sometime and you might just get hooked!

They were so huge and badass in the 2000s but nowadays they all look like a bunch of stocky dungeon masters

I liked the 80s/early 90s stuff.

You get some absolute beef cakes, some dudes that are fat and some guys that just look like fuckin slobs.

You could get a Dusty Rhodes special that's just a really big burrito. You gotta find a guy to kiss your rear end afterwards on your own.

It's crazy how popular Hogan was considering what a fraud he was, dude should still be paying out monthlys to Superstar Billy Graham.

That guy is such a fuckin class act though all he has to say is "I'm proud to have invented something worth copying."

I made this post in response to the people who claimed all wrestlers suck in real life when I said I don't like Macho Man because of what a psycho control freak he was about his wife.

Even not knowing that, surely nobody would be stupid enough to believe I was being seriou-

In Mick Foley's first book he talks about how even though Jake professed to being a born-again Christian, if you spent extended time with him it would eventually slip out that Jake was basically faking it

Seems unnecessarily lovely to out him like that, grifting religious types is extremely blessed.

My favorite Koko thing is this cheesy song WWF released in the 80's called "If You Only Knew." It featured different wrestlers each saying/singing a different line, but when it got to Koko B. Ware, the dude just gave 150% and sang the hell out of his part.

Wait there was more than one? I had a friend that fuckin loved this one,
