I went to the wrestling matches years ago with a group of people i worked with in St. Louis. The littlest and drunkest one in our group decided he could kick Dick Murdocks ass so he ran up on him as he was coming down the aisle and hit Murdock. Murdock slapped him and knocked him on his butt. He dodges security and comes back and we were all laughing at him. After a few minutes he tells me hes not done with Murdock yet, and that he was going to go at him again as he walked back after the match. I told him, no way are you that stupid, but sure enough he ran at him and popped that big monster again. Murdock smacked him again and knocked him over several metal folding chairs. For weeks we made fun of him and how Murdock could have killed him if he wanted to. He would reply that he would have kicked Murdocks ass but he was afraid he would get arrested. Wrestling is fake, but that doesnt mean some of those guys couldnt put a world of hurt on a whole lot of people. I told him, i bet Murdocks wife could kick your ass, so just let it go. About a year before he was murdered King Kong Brody about cleared out Artie and Tinys by himself, and the Wild Samoans did the same thing one night at the OZ. Most of those wrestlers at that time were crazy.
