Reactions to the List: 100-51
So, the entire Portland run was great enough to counter 20 years of supbar in-ring work ? I really have a hard time believing that. Piper was great in Mid-Atlantic.

Reactions to the List: 100-51
Really thought I'd be the high vote on Backlund. Had him at #6. Still watch every title defense of his that I can get my hands on. I voted for Kerry somewhere in the bottom third of my list. As I mentioned before, I thought David was better. Dusty just missed my top 10. He had his faults, sure, but nobody ever had the crowd eating out of their hand quite like Dusty.

Reactions to the Honorable Mention List, Part 3
They faced each other numerous times in Georgia in '78. I've never seen it either.

If Backlund is coming up soon, I was probably the high vote. David was better than Kerry, imo.

Reactions to the Honorable Mention List, Part 3
Almost half of my list has dropped. Not too surprising, I guess. My wheelhouse is 1970's/early 80's territory wrestling and younger voters, footage issues, etc. hurt those guys. Or maybe it's just a difference of opinion. Magnum is the guy that's bothered me the most. Shocked he came up so soon. Tommy Rich and Bruno not making Top 100 was a surprise too. One confession to make. My vote for Chavo Jr. was meant for Chavo Sr. Probable copy and paste error. Hope that doesn't mean I put Jerry Lynn or Jerry Estrada at #3.

Reactions to the Honorable Mention List, Part 2
I'm surprised David Von Erich will finish behind Kevin and Kerry. Maybe well behind Kerry. I voted for all 3, but thought David was the best of them.

Reactions to the Honorable Mention List, Part 2
My brother is a gay hipster artiste who lives in New York, isn't named Mike, and would sooner slit his own throat than watch anything sports- or wrestling-related. This is not to say that he's NOT, I'm just saying it's unlikely, is all. Don't worry, this isn't your brother, lol.

That sucks. Just checked my YouTube subscriptions and it is gone. This may be a dumb question, but does anyone really lose any appreciable amount of money by letting an account like that exist?

Will the tag team reveal coincide with the GWE reveal or happen afterwards? Great work on this, btw. I found this board not long ago. Glad that I did, as this has been cool to watch unfold.

Who Will You Be the High Vote On?
Robert Gibson apparently. I'm betting they'll be several more.

Submitted both.

Kal Rudman
I watched "Dick and Kal's Masterpiece" on Jerryvon K's YouTube page three times last night. It's one of the greatest things ever.

Wrestling before or after 1996?
Considering the fact that pre is all that I watch, this is a pretty easy choice for me.

Sunny Side Up: In Through the Backdoor
I'm sure I'll give it a look. But, it's not like I haven't already watched this movie in my mind years ago.

Most promotions you've followed at one time
As a kid, I was able to watch WWWF/WWF, Georgia Championship, and Mid-Atlantic. A few years later, I could watch WWF, WCW, AWA, UWF on a regular basis.
