How would you have liked to have been the opponent when the first person had the idea of the fire gimmick? "So I'll throw a big ball of fire at your face...."

That's funny.

The Sheik was the first person I saw throw fire and I thought it was cool then and I still think it's cool now. I think what remains so appealing about throwing fire is that it is not over done. Only certain guys do it but not all the time.

That is what makes any wrestling move so special (whether it be an actual wrestling move or gimmick like throwing fire). I believe Terry Funk said in an interview that the moonsault lost its appeal because EVERYONE started doing it, including the fat men and the women.
