10 Times Wrestling Fans F***ed Around & Found Out
8. Terry Gordy
The legendary Von Erichs/Fabulous Freebirds rivalry defined and redefined World Class Championship Wrestling as a territory, and in many ways stood as a monument to the industry in the 1980s outside of Vince McMahon's glossier World Wrestling Federation.
It's for both of those reasons that Terry Gordy had no problem getting physical with one of the Sportatorium regulars, especially when they crossed the thin bit of string acting as a guardrail. There were unwritten rules about that sort of things - fans would flock to get Von Erich autographs, kisses and just about anything else they were able to lay their hands on, but they couldn't act with equally negative passion towards the heels.
When a local literally crossed the line during an April 1983 show, he learned the lesson the hard way. Gordy sends him flying with a shove, and the dazed and confused Dallasonian tries and fails to mount a response before being sent packing once and for all.
