The Phantom of the Ring reviews and compares both the book Tangled Ropes, and the DVD 20 Years Too Soon: The Superstar Billy Graham Story.
Superstar Billy Graham: The Book or the Movie?
He was one of the preeminent men in his business. As a manager he counted among his charges such superstars as Chris Adams, Brute Bernard, the Great Kabuki, the Great Muta, Don “the Spoiler” Jardine, the Missouri Mauler, Bob Orton, Jr, Roddy Piper, Dusty Rhodes, Dick Slater, and Larry Zbyszko. As a booker, he is credited with creating the success of World Class Championship Wrestling during the early 1980s. He was a dominant force wherever he worked, and his death at the young age of 66 only serves as another reminder of our great loss as wrestling fans of an integral part of wrestling history and lore.
“If I’m an act, then what are you?” – Stephen Colbert to Bill O’Reilly
By The Phantom of the Ring with Bill “Potshot” Kunkel
There’s an old saying that all good things have to come to an end. Well, so do the Phannies.
Wrestling lost one of its great technicians and a truly class athlete when Don Curtis passed away from complications following a stroke this March.
He was not only a superb wrestler; he was also a good will ambassador for the game. One could say what they wanted about professional wrestling being on the level, but no one could doubt that Don Curtis was on the level.
