I didn't know you were a rasslin' fan.

Ric Flair was real big when I was a kid. He has a pretty interesting biography [Wisconsin state wrestling champion in high school, NCAA football at U of Minn, survived a plane crash that killed his pilot, broke his back in three places]:

I liked wrestling back in the 80s--NWA and Texas wrestling. I always liked the road warriors and Jimmy Valient. I thought the Missling link was hilarious, and I hated the Iron sheik and the Koloff's.

Today's wrestling is too raunchy and base for me.

Looks like he dropped out of U of Minn after a year or so...
