Great to see Sean Mooney healthy and looking great. Especially for his age! 🙌
Always liked him on the Coliseum Videos and his "Events Center" segments. I looked at him as sort of the news anchor for the WWF. Did a great job. 🎤👍
I'm watching this whole interview and I've subscribed.
When reviewing these shows I feel it’s important to not look at them through today’s lens because it was designed for the fans of that era. Not today.
The Brother Love segment was amazing imho, a rare submission match between Valentine & Garvin was fun, & the Rumble itself was stacked. Having the Warrior-Hogan face off leading to Mania was huge at the time.
Kids then were either Warriors or Hulkamaniacs. The similar Savage-Hogan incident from the prior year did the trick & made the tribes even more heated as to who was stronger, who was tougher, & who would win in a match.
Less is more.
My Nana had sun flowers growing with sun flowers seeds, she had cactus to male her Nopales. She her plants, she had a small garden. My Nana had chickens, rooster, a 3 Geese, a huge Pig, dogs and cats. She passed away unfortunately in 2023 at age 95....but she was very old school. She made her foods like they do in Mexico. She made her own Flower Tortillas and Corn tortilla, and Biscuits and bread. My nana loved making her Albondigas, Pozole, TORTILLA soup, Caldo De Ceso, Menudo, Frijole beans with Ox Tail.
She taught me how to cook from the age of 4. So thank god for that.
I thought Shiavone was amazing in every ppv he did with WWF
