I always thought Horner was a very good wrestler. He just came along at a time when everyone was so obsessed with size. He still did well for himself, and had a good career.

knoxman was right about Jerry "The King" Lawler. I grew up watching Memphis wrestling. I remember Sam Bass, Tojo, The Iron Sheik and more. Those were the days. My Grandmother would call the bad guys SOB and all kinds of things! I remember my grandmother and I went to one of the live studio shows and Jerry Lawler came over and used my grandmother as an example of a dried up grape.LOL He was in his bad guy modes then!

Yeah, I grew up watching wrestling in the late 60s and 70s. From guys like Whitey Cauldwell and Ron Wright to people like the Fullers, Jimmy Golden, Mongolian Stomper, Don Carson, and a bunch more. Plus the national stars like Andre, Dusty, Harley Race, Briscos, Funks, **** Slater, wow, I could go on for hours here. I just wish someone would release DVDs of wrestling from back then.

Ok I'm back! (Back to the Mark Henry thing I mentioned before, NOBODY KNOWS why a hand, I'm actually sure the Writing staff didn't even know. Given the era of wrestling it was probably to introduce a new wrestler, but It's just Speculation.) Ok I got a easy one for ya! Who was Katie Vick?

Katie was a friend of Kane's she died, Triple H said that Kane killed her, and was a murderer.

who is related to the wild somones

Not bad, True Jedi I can accept your answer, but I need to elaborate on why this gimmick is still hated amongst wrestling fans. Yes Kane "Murdered" Katie Vick. As it turns out at the funeral Katie was actually a manikin, who for some reason HHH decided to get into the casket in with and hump... it was quite horrific.

Because Triple H had sex with the corpse.

Yep the "corpse"
