Everything about Terry Funk just makes me wonder why more old figureheads from bygone eras aren't as down to earth and understanding as much as him.
Like everything about him, he never shat on the current product, he never called for all this flashy shit to be stopped, he started doing a moonsault in his 50's for god sake!
Back in the day of the 1980's joshi's movement he always gave credit to it calling it the future, so much so that other wrestlers made fun of him for watching it.
He accepted and cherished hardcore ECW wrestling, he's always ahead of the time, not to make this a pro aew thing, but even just in recent years, stuff like "AEW is going to do something special" even then he knew what the fuck he was talking about.
He's just one of the best of all time, straight up, up there with your Ric Flairs and Bret Hart's, he's amazing and will be sorely missed.
FOREVER, FOREVER, FOREVER.

Don't know if this will get much spread, but I'm curious, WRESTLING FANS?!
Do y'all take Dave Meltzers opinion as gospel? I tend to agree in general (like if he says a match is good, then it's probably not going to suck), but I know there are cases where I think A) match is better than B) match and Dave disagrees.
At the end of the day though he is just a wrestling fan with opinions, which ALL WRESTLING FANS are! Just because he's been around for ages and seen probably more wrestling than anyone, does that make him Kingmaker?!
I just wondered if there's a consensus on big Tuna Meltzer.

Go out of your way to watch these two matches, the above one in Terry Funk vs Jerry Lawler is the best empty arena match, LAWLER MY EYE.
And this match here, Terry Funk vs Ric Flair from the Clash of Champions, I Quit!
He's one of the greatest of all time that more people need to know about.
Eddie Kingston and Jon Moxley will say it a million times, but he is FOREVER, FOREVER, FOREVER!
