Those were the days, wrestling on a Saturday afternoon on The World of Sport with Dickie Davies.

I remember Mick MacManus and Giant Haystack, sure it wasn't his real name though

The Big Daddy one was when I realised it was all an act. I'd been to see the live show in Aylesbury, then a couple of weeks later saw the same show on TV... but it was a different location. Never went again, posters were rolled up in a cupboard, my Mum had them framed for me as a Christmas present one year, I love 'em.

Between bookings on the UK circuit, Dynamite continues to work for AJPW, teaming with Johnny Smith. But by late 1991, it is clear that his body has had enough. He retires from AJPW on December 6 1991, the day after his 33rd birthday.

In 1996, he makes a brief comeback for Michinoku Pro in a six man tag match which includes his old nemesis Satoru Sayama. It was to be his final match. Just a year later, the punishment, the wear and tear, and the injuries accumulated over the previous 18 years, finally catch up with him. No longer able to walk, the man who sparked such excitement in the ring is now confined to wheelchair.

If there is a positive ending to his story, it is an inner strength which pulled him through his darkest days, the friends and family who have stood by him, and the thousands of fans who never stopped wondering what happened to one of the greatest wrestlers of all time.

Ultimate Warrior was great. Used to love the WWF back when I was a kid.
I quite enjoyed WCW when one of the guys was ripping off The Crow and would decent on a wire at the end and beat the crap out of everyone with a baseball bat.
Went pap again when he started to wrestle properly though.
Then Owen Hart died whilst WWF tried to copy the entrance

Yeah the Ultimate Warrior was pretty good, numerous come backs where no one wanted to fight him cause he was to 'strong'.


The Rockers
The Beefcake. The hairdresser with shears
The Legion of Doom were good to.
The Shayman?, the weird black magic bloke.
Berserker.
Honky Tonk Man
The Anvil, Jimmy the other half of the original Heartfoundation.
Andre the Giant.
and the gobby gits Jimmy heart and the commentator Bobby can't remember his name.
