bryant"The reality, or substance, of professional wrestling is the ability to perpetuate a fantasy... I can look back and credit my tremendous success to what some would term insanity. I never distinguished between fantasy and reality. I made my fantasy reality for over 60 years." From Hooker, by Lou Thesz.
Lou Thesz died yesterday at age 86. He will be remembered as the greatest professional wrestler of the early days of the art.
