This is Too Cool

My first-ever, first favourite wrestler when I was probably about nine or ten, was The Masked Superstar. I watched the Superstar beat up a many jobbers on my weekly Saturday evening American Wrestling Association (AWA)
Strangely enough, he was made a legitimate bruiser (and a pretty sucessful one, too) and not a jabroni, which considering his gimmick...

Here's an interview

I can't remember anyone he wrestled, nor do I remember when the last mach I saw him in. I just remember wanting him to keep hurting that other guy in the who mouthed off about him in an interview, just off a few yards from the ring, before the match.

Well, they ALL paid the piper let me tell ya. Anyways, I don't remember when he left the AWA, but all that torment throughout the years, all the sleepless nights wondering what ever became of my favourite anti-hero-was over when I saw "The Super Machine". By the way, this was not too long after "Bobby The Brain"Heenan had Andre the Giant suspended from the World Wrestling Federation (yes, at one time they were enemies, remember?) but, the machines, claiming they weren't who they obviosly were weren't fooling the Brain, or me-not for one second.



They said back then that it could have been Andre or the Giant Baba. But C'mon, it HAD to be Andre. Look at the way he lumbers, and the SOUND OF HIS VOICE for Pete's sake.

Anyways, then in the late 80s came...DEMOLITION!



But as for the Madman of Mystery, the Hooded Assassin, the...nah, I just made those up...

Video here, here and here.

And an interview way back with Bobby Heenan as his manager (I had no idea)



And just when you think he's gone again...He's back, and he's a CHAMPION!
(Actually this was the reason for this whole post. I found this website and just started this ramble for the Superstar)

I finally met the Superstar in 2007 at a Legends reunion autograph signing. It was a day before WrestleMania XXIII in Detroit. He was there with his old demolition tag team partner, Smash. Other stars present were: Tito Santana, The Iron Shiek, Hacksaw Jim Duggan and Superfly Jimmy Snuka. I didn't seek anyone else's autograph. The only one that mattered that day was the Superstar's.

So, WOO HOO! Long FREAKIN' live the reign of the only FREAKIN' dude with a hood that EVER FREAKIN' mattered, The Masked FREAKIN' Superstar!!



Yay Bill E.
