LOL. I remember the Funks. They lived near where I grew up in the Texas Panhandle, on a ranch at Umbarger. Anyone remember the big cowboy statue? Had real sewn clothes. The Funks were heroes when wrestling in Amarillo, but villains when wrestling anywhere else. “Rapid” Ricky Romero’s daughter worked for me in the ‘80’s. She told that the better wrestlers were offered the chance to buy championships. I loved wrestling, even though I knew it was fake.
Terry Funk and his brother Dory are two of the alltime greats, as was their father, Dory Funk, Jr. To date they are still the only brothers to win the NWA World Championship, and the only father-son-son combination to accomplish that feat.
I have loved wrestling also since I was a kid, 1975 or so. Been a fan ever since!
