Try To Recognize This Person.

[Allhallowsday]

It is GIG YOUNG.

[AndyC]

Here's a good one. I suppose this guy could be considered a professional athlete.

[venomx]

Looks like Nikolai Volkoff. I just got his autograph not too long ago.

Maybe Cowboy Bob Orton in a 2011 shot? I know that's got to be a wrestler, no?

[AndyC]

It's Volkoff all right.

Got thinking about him while reading some of the other threads, discussing old wrestlers who are dead, insane or shamelessly clinging to past fame. Volkoff is probably the best example of an 80s wrestling star who got out of the business and made a healthy transition to private life. He works as a code enforcement officer for the city of Baltimore, and is by all accounts a really nice guy. This picture is from 2006, when he tried running for public office.

[venomx]

Yeah I thought it was. I have a photo I'll post later of me and him with the IRON SHEIK.

Hint ...

Very versatile stage and screen actor usually known for playing a psycologically unbalanced person in many of his roles, but his droll comedic roles shine just as brightly.

[Allhallowsday]

That is one homely dudette!  CHRISTOPHER WALKEN.
