YellOutWWE's video: WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2011: Terry Funk ECW Arena

Families that have made a career in the ring often achieve, at best, a modicum of success. However, when legendary competitor Dory Funk Sr. raised his sons Dory Jr. and Terry in Amarillo, Texas, little did he or wrestling enthusiasts know at the time that both Funk brothers would go on to carve out stellar careers in the industry. Terry debuted in 1965, and ten years later would capture the NWA Championship, just as his brother had won the historic title in 1969, the only brother tandem in history to hold a World title. When he wasn't teaming with Dory Jr., Terry also competed in singles matches across the country, continuing to make a name for himself globally. While a skilled ring tactician, Terry developed into more of a volatile brawler who became controversial, to say the least. In the mid 1990s, "The Funker" would gain a new fan base, thanks heavily to his tenure with ECW as well as a brief return stint in WWE as "Chainsaw Charlie." This new chapter in his career made him a hardcore icon. Through a 40-plus year career, few competitors have been as memorable, or as respected by their peers, as Terry Funk. A wildman in the ring and a gentleman outside of it, Terry Funk is truly one of the best to ever lace up a pair of boots.
