Three Great Champions


Three great NWA champions together at the National Wrestling Alliance convention in 1985. Shohei "Giant" Baba (3 time NWA champion), "Nature Boy" Ric Flair (depends on how you count them, 8 NWA world championships, as many as 21 world titles all together), and "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes (3 time NWA champ).

This is a page from a 1985 wrestling magazine in Japan. I got a kick out of seeing Ric and Dusty together here; talk about breaking Kayfabe (especially in 1985!)

A wonderful photo of all three true wrestling legends.
