8. The Beautiful Dream
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkLtItxkbXQ Terry Funks 1989 feud with Ric Flair remains one of the highlights of both mens career. The rivalry gave us a ton of unforgettable moments, from the iconic I Quit match to the first table spot in mainstream American wrestling. Less known, but just as fascinating, is this bizarre promo for one of their matches. Rather than simply threaten to beat up the Nature Boy, Terry chose to launch into a long-winded drunk uncle anecdote. The winding narrative includes the famous Double Cross Ranch, a cameo from the departed Dory Funk, Sr., and a beautiful lady in a long, black limousine. We learn that literally the only way to distinguish NWA Champion Ric Flair from a roadkilled donkey is that one of them smells more strongly of bad cologne. Terry goes off the rails at the end and just starts yelling, but the MVP of the segment is Jim Ross, who's making a face that suggests he can actually smell the beast that Funk describes in such detail. Funkism: "It smelled like hairspray and cheap cologne."
