I was a little surprised to find out he was a pro wrestler, but apparently he exaggerated his qualifications there since he was never a champion. He was with the WWE for less than 2 years, and was even active at a time when I was watching.

the bad asses that people confuse cow shit sniffing Cowboys with were known as outlaws in the old west.

Your posts need a fucking laugh track. Otherwise, it's worth addressing your ignorance of American history, considering that most outlaws weren't even slightly bad ass and some of the bad ass ones WERE cowboys (particularly rustlers). In fact, historically cowboy WAS used as a term for specific types of outlaws. I think you have cowboys mixed with up with cowhands.

In 1881 in the area around Tombstone, "cowboys" was a pejorative term used to describe a rootless group of roughnecks, many from Texas, who rustled horses and sometimes engaged in other forms of lawbreaking. George Parson wrote in his diary, "A cowboy is a rustler at times, and a rustler is a synonym for desperado--bandit, outlaw, and horse thief." The San Francisco Examiner editorialized, "Cowboys [are] the most reckless class of outlaws in that wild country...infinitely worse than the ordinary robber."

And that's not even getting into your problematic slur in the first sentence.
