Wrestlers you marked out for back in the day...
 
And looking back now, you can't believe that you did.

Mine would be The Red Rooster Terry Taylor.

Yes, you heard me correctly. Back in the day I was usually always a mark for heels that made face turns.

Mr. Perfect, Bret Hart, and Hul Hogan.

I only picked winners because I am not a loser like you guys.

Of course I marked out for all the popular guys, but I was also a HUGE mark for Earthquake. I even cheered for him when he was a heel and was in the ring with Hulk Hogan. I didn't want to tell anyone I was cheering for the bad guy.
I was so thrilled when he became a good guy. I don't recall how it happened, but Earthquake was on the top of my stack of WWF trading cards.

Ditto here, except this was when he was still buff and was booked as an unstoppable monster. In other words, the Bobby Lashley of ten years ago.

HBK was the second heel that I marked out for. My twin bro and I both thought the Rockers were the shit... I liked Shawn, he liked Marty, and I still make fun of him for that to this very day.

That you should. and Jake the Snake Roberts made me mark out hard core. LOVED damien, and even got me a few damiens myself now. The snap based style he used also stood out to me, just quicker then the average guy at the time. Kinda almost looks like the foundation for cruiserweight moves were built off of, but not to say jake was responsible for a cruiserweight division exsisting today.

Bret Hart, HBK, Hulk Hogan and Sting

And pretty much when ever i saw the Four Horsemen.

We all make mistakes, some of them are just bigger than others.

Okay, how far back is "back in the day"? When I first got into wrestling over 15 years ago I was a HUGE mark for Randy Savage. Hell, his elbow drop is THE move that got me into watching wrestling. Now someone mentions Ahmed Johnson. I wasn't a huge mark for him, but that's a little more recent than Randy Savage. I can say *inhales deeply* Goldusssssst *Chomp!* but that goes under the "No Shit" file.

So can we get a time frame?

Anywhere from last week to as far back as you can remember.

I still mark out for Mr. Perfect. Henning played that role brilliantly.
