The one and only time I ever went to Madison Square was back in the day to see Bruno against Ivan Koloff in a steel cage match. Back when wrestling was not quite as "soap opera" as things are today. I used to actually enjoy it back then, now I can't watch more than 5 minutes before flipping the channel and I would never ever pay for today's product. RIP Bruno. The greatest champion of all time and a true gentleman.
