Hello Everyone, I'm OG and today I'll talk about a man who’s always
keeping' it 100 , he's the Legend! a Manager! a Booker! a Podcaster! And also a
good friend of mine, his name is Konnan .
So..Who’s Konnan?
For those who haven't heard on Konnan or don’t know him , Konnan is a 30
year veteran in the wrestling business, he's a former wrestler and currently
manager and booker, Konnan specially known for being the 1st ever
CMLL World Heavyweight champion when he won the belt in 1991, and he's famously
known for being a part in WCW's factions in the Monday Night Wars, he was a
part of the NWO factions and a part of the Filthy animals , he's a former WCW
Tag champion and a former WCW US Champion, after the Monday night wars, Konnan
joined TNA where he created the 3 live kru stable and few years later, the LAX
Stable, the LAX stable came back a year ago to Impact and currently they're at
the top of Impact once again, leading by
their managers Konnan and Diamante, except for being a manager, Konnan is also
a Podcaster, he's having his podcast "Keepin' it 100" and he's also a
booker for Triple A (AAA)
Why I really like Konnan?
Well first off, as someone who spoke with him on the media, I have to say
that Konnan is very friendly and sociable, he's a very kind man, as a wrestler,
from what I saw he was good. Pretty underrated but yeah he was good in the
ring, as a manager I saw more from him, as someone who grew up on TNA so as a
manager I was impressed more by him, he's a great manager, to see his charisma
and to hear his voice it's great. The man literally works his ass off on what
he does, whether it's in the ring as a wrestler, or as a manager or as a
podcaster. This dude is awesome.
From matches I saw, which was my favorites of Konnan?
I have few favorites honestly , I going to give them not in a particular
order.
1st. Konnan Vs. Rey Mysterio Jr. WCW Road Wild 1997.
2nd. Konnan Vs. Jushin Liger, WCW Slamboree 1996.
3rd. Konnan Vs. Eddie Guerrero, WCW Uncensored 1996.
Yeah. I saw mostly of Konnan when he was in the US championship picture
on WCW.
And I gotta say, the years of 1995 to 1997 were my favorites of him.
