RIP Bruno Samartino...

[quavers59]

Just today, I typed in- Bruno Samartino's Greatest Matches and sure enough- that 1975 match between Bruno and Superstar Billy Graham popped up. Another  with  Ernie(The Cat) Ladd.  That guy is still alive, I believe and went 6'9". Even a old black and white match with Hans Schmidt. Good last name there.
   As far as interviews-- I remember very well Bruno talking about his upcoming match with Superstar Billy Graham and comparing their best Bench Press. I remember Bruno saying, I have done 560lbs- but Graham claims 600.  Both totals are true by the way. Current Champ Roman Reighns has done 445lbs. Big difference for sure!  Back in those days Vince McMahan was just on a (mike) and interviewed people. Good memories this morning watching Bruno on Utube.
