RPG A Day 2020: Day 19—Tower

I don’t have much to say about ‘tower’, but when I think about the word, I can’t help but to remember the Macho Man—among the best pro-wrestlers of all time and one of his promos—“The Tower of Power too sweet to be sour…etc. etc”. I want to think that I’ve heard the same from Superstar Billy Graham and possibly Dusty Rhodes as well. Surely, “funky like a monkey” was used by a lot of wrestlers in the 70’s and 80’s, so they don’t exactly trademark their promos. I think Dolemite, Rudy Ray Moore may have said it a time or two too.

There’s a lot of overlap between wrestling and RPGs. If you have trouble getting into character watch some wrestling promos.

Honorable mentions to a new guy, Brandon Cutler who wrestles for AEW. He’s big into RPGs and even uses it for his gimmick.
