Terry Funk is a 50-year veteran that is best known for his influential hardcore wrestling style that he pioneered in the latter part of his career. Funk has wrestled around the world for numerous wrestling promotions and has held a number of titles throughout his career. Funk also wrestled for most of the major promotions in the U.S. including WWF, WCW, and NWA just to name a few, but a former co-worker is reflecting on a specific incident during his time in ECW.
Thursday’s episode of Dark Side Of The Ring focused on the FMW promotion must have stirred up some memories for Wrestling legend Lance Storm. Storm took to Twitter to reminisce on an incident in ECW where the hardcore legend mistakenly Called Storm by the wrong name for months.
I let Terry Funk mistakenly call me Desert, for several months in ECW. I assume Desert Storm was stuck in his head. I figured, who am I to correct Terry Funk.
“How ya doing Desert?”
“Doing great Terry, how are you?”
Funk’s health has been on a decline over the past few years, but the legend’s accomplishment and groundbreaking contributions to wrestling continue to reverberate throughout the wrestling landscape.
