Yep, I'm a dork. I'm willing to admit it. I'm willing to bet a bunch of you out there are dorks as well.

Why am I a dork? It's quite simple really. I can't get enough of the old school wrestling I keep seeing on TV. Tonight, I watched Curt Hennig, who you may know as Mr. Perfect, wrestle in a 1986 match. It's crazy to think that he's been dead for almost six years. His father, Larry "The Axe" Hennig was in attendance and spoke about how proud he was to see his son wrestle and can only imagine how he felt when Curt went on to be one of the sport's top stars.

In the past few weeks, I've watched tons of classic matches from Stan Hansen, Shawn Michaels (his first match on a national stage), Nikita Koloff, Scott Norton, Larry Zbyszko and so many more.

It takes me back to those days 20 years ago before wrestling got totally out of hand. Nowadays, wrestling isn't about the in ring work, it's about the spectacle. I get that. People need to be entertained constantly and need something crazy happening. But back then, all you got was action when watching a wrestling match. Sure, there was plenty of work on the mic, but the real action happened in the squared circle.

These matches are great because of multiple things. One of those things is the crowd reaction. Today, all the fans want is to be seen on TV with their dumb signs. Back then, you could see the people in the audience get visibly offended and angry with the wrestlers. They would scream at the top of their lungs when the heels would take down their favorite stars. I mean, we all know it's fake, but these people couldn't care less. They wanted to see The Midnight Express (Dennis Condrey/Stan Lane and Bobby Eaton) go DOWN!

And where else can you see such in-ring psychology? The slow, methodical approach to beating your opponent, not just physically, but mentally as well. And watching the masters do it so long ago is a treat for any wrestling fan. Jake Roberts used Damien as an absolute mind F!
