Not sure I agree with that. Casting no aspersions on them, they would be BoW material in whatever decade they wrestled, but they stood out back then because bodybuilder types (who could at least appear to wrestle) were far less common than now. I suppose we have Vince McMahon and his preference for great bodies to thank for that. Anon.
It was Paul Roma and Jim Powers who formed the Tag Team called The Young Stallions and came to wrestle in Sydney in 1984 (I think?) that cemented my love of pro wrestling - and the gorgeous, magnificent bodies that went with it. They were the first two I fell in love with.
They don't build 'em like this anymore.
