On Aug 23 2023 the world lost one of the greatest pro wrestlers of all time. But Terry Funk was so much more than just a wrestler, he was a showman, an actor, a legend, but more importantly, he was a father to two wonderful daughter and a dear friend.
Terrence "Terry" Funk had a wrestling career that lasted more than 50 years. He was one of the most respected men in the business, a headliner in every territory of the United States, and in Japan he was a superstar, an icon, and one of the most beloved pop culture icons.
He was even a movie star, appearing in films such as Paradise Alley, Over The Top, The Ringer and most notably the cult classic Road House.
But more than anything he was a proud father, many times he me would tell how proud he was of his daughters, and how much family meant to him.
The friendship I developed with Terry of the last several years of his life mean more to me than a few words here could ever express,
Please welcome Rodney West and Terry Sullivan to the show, two men who have been around the world of wrestling their whole lives. The three of us talk about Terry, his work, his status in the business, what he meant to the world of wrestling, and what he meant to us on a more personal level. Rest in peace my friend, and you have no idea how honored I was to call you friend!!
