Rick Rude was my favorite as well. Like Magnum T.A., he had it all. He had the look, the charisma, the ability, and he knew how to get the crowd going. If Rude didn't have that career-ending back injury in 1994, he would probably still be around, if not wrestling, maybe mentoring a younger star with a similar style of his.
