"Zeus"  was actually an actor named "Tiny" Lister, Jr.  He starred with Hulk Hogan in the movie "No Holds Barred" and in a two part episode of "Matlock". 

Because you did not say Tom, I will add    -  Tom "Tiny Lister" Jr

Huge black geezer, but he is noticable, because he seems to be very obviously blind in one eye..
http://blogs.argusleadermedia.com/uploads/2007/06/zeus.bmp

I've seen him in a number of films, playing small parts.. I even saw him in an advert for Lynx deodrant.

Suprisingly, he was the president of the united states of america, in "the 5th element" . I have never seen such bad acting from a lead actor.  I have not seen him since! But he is still going films.

I used to own "no holds barred" on VHS video.  

Classic front cover.. was a bit like this, except Zeus was on the left, and Hogan on the right.  Zeus looked tougher than hogan.

they used to call Zeus "The Human Wrecking Machine"..

In those early days of WWF, 1991  and before, and maybe 1992, characters were more believable.. The Undertaker really did feel no pain. Hulkamania was running wild. Zeus was just a monster. The Warrior was electric..
Nobody seemed to have much wrestling skill though!

Hogan was on the front of almost every wrestlemania video.. for perhaps 10 consecutive years/ wrestlemanias.. I had a catalogue from silvervision. (I stopped following it after wrestlemania 8 / 1993)

Goldberg (of WCW fame) , came much much later, and kicks all their a$$es though!
In power, and skill, and electricity.

Chris Jericho is my favorite wrestler

He has some pretty cool entrance music too



Jerichos debut, I remember the huge crowd pop he got when he showed up on Raw.

Alot of  later WWF or, what is is now called. WWE, is mostly about bad attitude and showing off.

and the music is just pop music.  

Steve Austin might have started it.. You know in real life he beat his wife up.. she said he could not tell his character in the ring from his real self.

In the good old days, you had good guys and bad guys..
the sad thing was the bad guys were not so much bad, they were merely people that messed matches up by causing a disqualification, or slowing the match down. But the concept of good guy vs bad guy.. Good guy vs good guy, was good.  
Since perhaps steve austin, fans started to like degenerate loud mouth characters.   In the old days the only show off pain in the backside was shawn michaels. It seems that later, alot of the top characters were largely show offs -The Rock, perhaps Jericho, Steve Austin, and alot of the top characters..


As far as commentarors are concerned..  Bobby Heenan was far better than his replacement, jerry lawler

the old way was better, get in there, beat the other guy, and then celebrate !
Warrior Debut


or,  Undertaker, he just stands there and it makes an impression!
I used to fast forward him coming into the ring.. but it is worth watching for his debut

It was fun in the old days. before all that.

The fun was in, for example, a match between Hogan and the Warrior. Wrestlemania 6 / 1991.
Like 2 powerful forces going against each other, nobody knew what would happen. What would happen if they collide, the 2 powers!. Hogan and Warrior. Or, warrior/hogan and earthquake- the unstoppable force meeting the immovable object 

Hogan and Warrior played it out like that brilliantly during the match. Running criss cross across the ring simultaneously and colliding.. one dominated, the other dominated, both dominated at the same time.. It was great when Hogan hulked up, and Warrior "warriored" at a similar time...

Goldberg did not show off much, it was more just his incredible intensity and power.. he was unstoppable, and could slam anybody and anything..

It is a showing off that happens naturally from the brilliance of the character.

It was never about bad attitude. The characters were decent people.

if you like that i suggest checking out MMA (UFC/EliteXC/Pride/etc.)

K-1 kickboxing is also good. 

Brock Lesnar from WWE is actually making his MMA debut in the UFC this Saturday, would be a good intro for you if ur into wrestling.  It's a very good card all around.
All or nothing.

I thought he already debuted. Played a (relatively) "rubbish" opponent though
He was going to play Hong Man.


MMA is good when they aren't lying on top of each other like queers.

Brock Lesner matches will be very good. I look forward to it. Hope it will be on youtube. Alot of videos get pulled from there because of copyright. So people make terrible spliced videos with clips and music in the middle

The women wrestling in WWE is very dull but there are some skilled female wrestlers, Molly Holly, Trish Stratus, and Beth Phoenix come to mind.

Also Japan has some very skilled woman wrestlers.

No worries, i got you!

http://mmafightvideos.blogspot.com/ < only site you'll ever need for MMA

they post the videos basically the same night of all major UFC/MMA events and shows.  next day at the latest.  they have a whole archive of old fights as well.  lesner ended up fighting someone otehr then choi, and he won his first match pretty quick.  the guy he's fighting in his UFC debut (Frank Mir) is a submission specialist/former champion so he may give him trouble, but i personally think Lesner will take him due to his strength, size and wrestling ability.  asside from the WWE he was a olympic level wrestler in college.  but it could go either way, for an example of what im talkin about check the Frank Mir fight they just posted against Antoni Hardonk (world class kickboxer).  He finished him in about a minute.

i feel you about the ground game, it gets  boring SOMETIMES although sometimes it's really interesting too.  But the worst for me is when their just pushing eachother up against the cage Tim Sylvia style.  one thing i do know for sure, u need it nowadays in MMA.  with no ground game, ur gonna end up getting ur arm broken or have a guy takin u down at will.
