Since Andre The Giant appeared on The Fall Guy do you think others would


Ok in the first season of The Fall Guy we all saw Andre The Giant wrestling with Handsome Howie the wrestler. I was wondering if the show had continued for another couple of years do you think that other wrestlers from the then before they changed to the WWE and was known originally as the WWF the wrestlers would have appeared on the show?

That would have been cool to see like Hulk Hogan on there or Randy Macho Man Savage or other old school wrestlers to boost ratings for wrestling fans to watch.

I have seen A&E do a Biography on Andre The Giant and I agree that he was the big man at the time during the 70's and early 80's all right.

Yes and I also remember when Hulk Hogan appeared on The A-Team in 1985 because even Mr. T was apart of some of the things that were going on with the WWF at that time. Wrestlemania was a big ticket in the mid 80's because I remember Cindi Lauper and Captain Lou Albino was going at it on who could get the best wrestler to beat who.

I feel that those were the days of when wrestling was at its best to be honest with you. I got hooked and started watching wrestling when I was 14 years old. I watched it up until after Chris Benoit killed himself, his wife, and his son due to steroids that he was taking. I feel that the WWE has grown too large and use the exact same story lines anymore. I was being able to predict on what was going to happen, what kind of wrestling match it was going to be, and all. I no longer watch the WWE now.

Seems everyone in this thread missed the top connection for AtG. He was the original actor to play the Sasquatch on The Six Million Dollar Man. Andre the Giant and Lee Majors had some great cybernetic fights.

Yes Lee talks about that scene all the time and said Andres was a really nice guy and loved working with him and because of his wrestling experience of not hurting people Lee said he survived the fight scenes though at one point he wasn't sure
