JJ Dillon's Book Trivia

[IrishCanadian25]

I am not quite half way through JJ Dillons book. I bought it from Dillon himself at the Fan Slam NorCal and I went to a year and a half ago, and he wrote a great autograph message in it.

So I figure, when I read something interesting about another wrestlers, I'll post it in trivia question form here. First correct answer receives green rep. I doubt you'd find the answer online, but try not to cheat.

Question #1 - This hall of fame wrestler was described by Dillon as being the man who took the best, cleanest bumps in the history of professional wrestling. Who is it?

 

[The Doctor]

Ric Flair?

 

[One Punch Doug Crashin]

Tully Blanchard?

 

[IrishCanadian25]

Ric and Tully are incorrect.

Hint - It's not a Horseman, original or otherwise.

 

[The Doctor]

Bret Hart?

 

[IrishCanadian25]

Bret Hart is incorrect. Think older.

 

[klunderbunker]

Terry Funk?

 

[TLC]

One Man Gang?

 

[IrishCanadian25]

Terry Funk is a good guess, but wrong.

One Man Gang? Get out of my thread...

 

[TLC]

Hey leave me alone. I took a random guess.

 

[klunderbunker]

Jack Brisco?

As a special for a Dillon fan, here's one of his matches.

 

[IrishCanadian25]

TLC, you're off the hook because of your Scrubs sig. You may guess again.

KB, Jack Briscoe is another terrific guess, you're very close. Just wrong.

 

[Blade]

Steamboat?

Bad guess, I know.

 

[klunderbunker]

Gerry Brisco, as in the Stooge?

 

[IrishCanadian25]

KB, brilliant of you to post Dillon vs Santana. Great match. I'm nowhere near there in the book though. Can't wait.

 

[IrishCanadian25]

Steamboat's a good guess, but again, go older.

No, KB, not the other Briscoe.

So far you know:

Hall of Famer, never a Horseman, older than Hart.

 

[klunderbunker]

I'm assuming WWE HOF?

 

[IrishCanadian25]

I'm assuming WWE HOF?

WWE AND NWA

 

[klunderbunker]

If it's who I think it is, I'm going to smack myself.

Harley Race?

 

[IrishCanadian25]

Harley Race is the correct answer.

JJ Dillon called Harley Race the man who took the cleanest bumps in the history of pro wrestling.

 

[klunderbunker]

How in the world did I miss that earlier?

 

[klunderbunker]

Wait....wasn't Race named an honorary Horseman at his HOF induction?

 

[It's...Baylariat!]

I want this book now. I would have said either Harley Race or Stan Hansen. For shiggles you see.

 

[IrishCanadian25]

Wait....wasn't Race named an honorary Horseman at his HOF induction?

Doesn't count.

I want this book now. I would have said either Harley Race or Stan Hansen. For shiggles you see.

A buddy of mine got me a copy of "The Heels" for Christmas, so the moment I finish Dillon's, I'm reading that one, and you best believe I'll have LOADS of trivia for that. Hansen is a major player in that book.

Question 2, IC?
