The DARK SIDE of Terry Funk's WWF Career

Terry Funk stepped into the WWF in 1985 as a former NWA World Heavyweight Champion, a main-event star sharing the ring with Hulk Hogan on Saturday Night's Main Event — and within five months, he was gone. This is the story of how Vince McMahon took one of the most gifted, believable performers in wrestling history and reduced him to a cartoon cowboy, while Hollywood directors saw exactly what WWF never bothered to use. From the branding iron angle that made him a top heel, to the grueling road schedule that broke him down, to the "Chainsaw Charlie" gimmick that summed up decades of institutional waste — this is the dark side of Terry Funk's WWF career. #TerryFunk #WWF #WWE #WrestlingHistory #VinceMcMahon #ProWrestling #WrestlingDocumentary #80sWrestling #WWEHallOfFame
