Even Flair regularly acknowledges Magnum was the next NWA Champion at Starrcade 1986.   |

Dude looked like Magnum P.I. and could GO in the ring. He was well before my fandom really started, so I didn't get the love until later. What's really crazy is he would have been forty in 1999.

As a childhood WWF fan, I feel especially cheated out of his (assumed) eventual jump to the Federation in 1989 or 1990.
As a face:
Magnum vs. Mr. Perfect
Magnum vs. DiBiase
Magnum vs. Savage
Magnum vs. Rude
As a heel:
Magnum vs. Hogan
Magnum vs. Warrior
Magnum vs. Jake
Magnum vs. Duggan
Either way, it works for me.

Same here. I didn't really get an education on Magnum until around 2006 when I got WWE Classics on Demand and binged watched like a whole year of Crocket World Championship Wrestling episodes from 85-86. That guy was special. |

TA had everything. The size. The work. The mic work.
His accident was one of the first WTF moments for a young wrestling fan Peeps.
