The lowdown on The Dragon and Smackdown

Round table discussion with WWE Hall of Famer Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat at the Batanes Room of Shangri-La EDSA. The Dragon, who served as an advance party for the main body of wrestlers, was gregarious and a fun interview. Sure was cool sitting next to a wrestling legend.

He works in the backroom of the WWE. Player development and occassionally wrestling. He sure misses the show. After retiring relatively injury free, he still tries to keep in shape even if it is clear that he has lost a step.

Thanks to Joey Mendoza of the Philippine Star for emailing me the picture.

Coming up my article on the WWE's ECW and Smackdown event in Manila.


So okay, who am I going to layeth the smackdown on?

In the meantime, you might want to read an early column of mine on pro wrestling.
