3. Bruno Teaches Zbyszko A Lesson (1980)

When struggling pupil Larry Zbyszko wrestled mentor Bruno Sammartino in a 1980 exhibition, he became increasingly flustered when the ageing Bruno constantly outdid him. Incensed, Zbyszko turned on Bruno, and left him in a pool of blood following a chair attack.

Bruno was once hesitant to engage Zbyszko, but now the gloves were off. After months of simmering heat, the two met in a steel cage match at New York's Shea Stadium. There, Sammartino beat Zbyszko to a bloody pulp, and left him laying as he boldly strode out the door.
