THIS WEEK, A FRIEND OF MINE TOLD ME THAT FORMER WWWF HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION CELEBRATED HIS 80TH BIRTHDAY! HE ASKED ME IF I HAD EVER MET BRUNO! THE ANSWER IS YES! IN 2004, I MET BRUNO AT WRESTLEREUNION 2! BRUNO WAS HELD THE WWWF TITLE FOR OVER 11 YEARS OVER 2 REIGNS! HE WAS INDUCTED INTO THE WWE HALL OF FAME IN 2013! FOR YOUNGER FANS, BRUNO WAS THE JOHN CENA OF HIS ERA! BRUNO WAS THE MAIN DRAW IN THE NORTHEAST FOR VINCE MCMAHON, SR.! HEADLINING MAIN EVENTS AT THE BIGGEST ARENAS IN THE NORTHEAST!
A PHOTO OF BRUNO FROM 2004 IN KING OF PRUSSIA, PA! AT THE TIME, WE WERE TALKING FITNESS! NEARING 70 HE WAS STILL BENCH PRESSING 225 AND RUNNING 5 MILES A WEEK! BRUNO IS ON THE RECORD OF NEVER TAKING ANY ILLEGAL DRUGS/STEROIDS FOR HIS STRENGTH! HE WAS FAMILIAR WITH YORK, PA WITH YORK BARBELL & BOB HOFFMAN! HE ALSO PERFORMED AT THE ALCAZAR BALLROOM IN YORK CITY, PA IN THE 1960'S!
