The only thing I would have to disagree with you about Gino Hernandez death being the sign to come, I happen to believe that David Von Erich's death was the sign of things to come to WCCW.

If we're talking strictly Von Erich, yeah David's death was a sign of what was to come. If we're talking World Class in general, Gino's death was huge. Gino and Chris Adams the biggest nemesis the Von Erich's ever had(some would argue the Freebirds were), but Gino had tons of potential and would have certainly been a star. Once Gino was gone, World Class never fully recovered. World Class could not hire major talent which is why it got stale very quick and even the magazines stopped covering them as the years went by.

I have always thought that Fritz should have gave Bundy a blank check after Wrestlemania 2 to come to World Class in late 86/early 87.  Make his kids take less money in the short term and bet the entire farm on Bundy. They could have sold Bundy in that territory as invincible at the time, have him injure Mike or Kevin(maybe both), win the title, and have Kerry seek revenge and then have the feud end with Kerry winning the belt. Federation would have got major attention during such a feud.

Funny thing is he started his career in World Class but his potential was wasted. Mcmahon knew what to do with him though.

Has to be a gene problem that causes people to be more susceptible to suicide. what was it? 3 in one family? Crazy

Four actually....

David
