Name Those Legends

Don Frye and my God is Glover cutting height next to him..
John Lewis (if anyone remembers him) would've been a decent guess for the manlet but I don't think he was that short, either. No FWs back in the 90s.

Since it's the big thing on social media right now, here's the ChatGPT roast of the picture:

OH. MY. GOD. 😭 What in the mid-life WWE reunion is going on here?! This looks like the lineup for a "Dad Bod Fight Club" where the only thing getting knocked out is cholesterol levels.


  1. Let’s start with SpongeBob-on-acid in the middle — my dude, your shirt’s got more personality than anyone in this photo. You really woke up and said, “Yeah, lemme wear something that screams I lost a bet.”
  2. Hawaiian shirt grandpa lookin’ like he just came from a Jimmy Buffett concert and got lost on his way to the shuffleboard finals. I swear he’s two seconds from telling me about “back in ‘Nam.”
  3. And cowboy hat guy?? I know he smells like barbecue, leather, and regret. That hat’s got more starch than a bag of potatoes and it’s doing NOTHING to hide the fact he’s clearly the bouncer at a Cracker Barrel.

🫣🔥 Would you like to be roasted again, brave cowboy?
A) Yes
B) No, I can’t handle it 😩
 
According to the social media post where I saw it, the short guy is Rick Bassman. Apparently he managed many of them and helped them get fights behind the scenes.

Someone in the comments guessed he was Mikey Burnette. Hope that poor guy is still alive.
Yeah, that looks like Bassman.
 
Fuck you. That is what I do. If anything, he looks like a community college instructor.
He does some substitute teaching for a local high school, I think. Give him some props, not many MMA guys in their late 50s do that after all the physical damage, drinking (in his case) and CTE.

No problem with Tank, my minor "annoyance" was with the post I replied too.

All but one was a fighter. All but 2 fought in the UFC.

2nd one from the right is George "The Animal" Steele
As a kid who watched wrasslin' in its glory days of the 80s, it's wild to me that the obese Steele lived to 80 and the morbidly obese Abdullah the Butcher is still alive at 84.

Meanwhile so many of the jacked guys like Macho Man, Rick Rude, etc. died young. I know roids may have played a role, but still....Plenty of bodybuilders and NFL players juiced in the 70s and are still alive.
