RIP Dusty Rhodes
But Baba himself had two quickie NWA title reigns. Likely, the real reason is that Dusty aligned himself with Inoki and New Japan at a time when the wrestling war in Japan was quite hot

Dusty Rhodes
If you haven't seen them before check out his WWWF promos from 77-78 on the Dusty WWE DVD immediately. If that Dusty turned up in WWE today he would be the most over guy on the roster within days of his debut

John Cena
Think of it as an hour long Dick and Kal match and it will much more enjoyable

RIP Dusty Rhodes
Actually I think that run with Graham in the AWA happened after his Florida turn but not long after, maybe 6 months.

John Cena vs. Bret Hart
Re: Bret learning the sharpshooter from Konnan, I believe it was right after Mania VII when Konnan happened to be at a show or two wrestling dark matches and before he wrestled with the Max Moon gimmick

Greatest elevations through a loss
Michaels losing to Razor at Mania X. Granted it was because of all the unique spots he did with the ladder, but he was probably the hottest wrestler in North America coming out of that match
