Happy Birthday!

This week we have some birthdays to remember.


May 18th was the 67th birthday of Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka. He was already famous in wrestling circles but this match put him firmly on the map as a superstar and he did what today would be pretty tame, he did the superfly leap off the top of a cage.


Celebrating his 59th birthday yesterday, the underappreciated Dirty Dick Slater. He had problems with staying in one promotion for too long and usually wore out his welcome by butting heads with the bookers and wanted to do things his way, but while there he was always worth the ticket. From 1983 he teams with Harley Race to face Terry and Dory Funk Jr in Japan.






Also born on May 19th was the late Great Andre the Giant. Here is a rare clip of Andre in Mexico wrestling mexican great El Canek. He would be one of the few wrestlers to body slam Andre.
