  • I had that SAME Tommy Hilfiger shirt...LOLOLOLOL

    

  • Former/short-lived WCW World Heavyweight Champion and bitch tag team partner to JBL(former European,Hardcore,Intercontine­tal,United States,WWE Champion).Where exactly is the racial title progress in this man's career,"Damn"!

  • He say nigger?

  • @RichieTheKing69 He said "boy."

  • fuckin damn

  • I thought this was the one where Harley Race said "I've been dealing with n***ers like you all my life!"

  • jessy really was demian demental

  • Why is Ventura dressed as a Mad Max character?

  • The best part of this video was Race's selling of the chop block & the clothesline

  • What year was this?

  • Racism at its finest... Harley Race got EXACTLY what he deserved. Smh... Lol.

  • @Mr707BAYAREA

    You do know this is all a work to get heat right?

    Harley is putting Ron over here, the opposite of racism, not long after this Ron actually won the belt, awesome angle.

  • @Doca I know that... He was still being lightweight racist tho. Lol... But yeah Ron Simmons was a good wrestler back in the day and you can never say enough about Harley Race, a great legend...

  • RON SIMMONS IS A BOSS........DAMN!

  • I think they bleeped out "boy" to make it seem like what Harley said was worse then what it was.

  • Even at that age Harley could sell it!!

  • I remember this,Harley isnt really racist,he's playing the role and I heard many stories of Harley and none was of him being racist.

  • @kcin713 agree he was actually very much tried to push for Tony Atlas to get an NWA world title run, as well as other wrestlers in the NWA Iin that era

  • @Martinl792002 yep and he was behind Ron getting the WCW title.It sucked though cause flair left WCW and he took the "Big Gold" with him,so Ron got a smaller,plainer belt.

  • @kcin713 agree. If anything i'd say there was more racism on the half of the WWF, who would often use Simmons or later Faaroq in story lines for a couple shows, than keep Simmons, Ahmed Johnson, Koko B Ware, Butch Reed, JYD, to name a few at the lower to mid card level, never gets looked at though people would rather say its all the southern federations which is totally wrong IMO.

  • @Martinl792002

    Yep,I know no one will believe this but Butch reed is my Godfather and i can tell many stories I have heard about places and how racist there are,especially when it comes to Michael Hayes,and it's fucked up cause as a kid I loved the Freebirds and I use to hear stories all the time about Hayes.

  • @kcin713 Michael Hayes got suspended for calling someone the n word didnt he?

  • @Martinl792002 He said it to Mark Henry.from what I was told by my Godfather way before Michael Hayes was outed as a racist was that Hayes was more of a confused dumbass.he use o try to act black and he even did the moonwalk back in the 80's as apart of his gimmick cause his exact words off camera was"Black people sure can boogie"and use to try learning dance moves from the black wrestlers.Its just recent years that he has been a full blown racist.

  • @kcin713 I agree with you about Harley playing the role.

  • if you listen closely he doesnt say the n word the beep delay is late....he says boy....so all yall think that the great harley race is a rasist....go fuck yourself

  • Harley Racist!

    Wow. To this day that bleep is still causing controversy! Look at these comments.

    Bobo Brazil was NOT the first World Champion as the title change against Buddy Rogers is not recognized by the NWA. Similar to Inoki's WWWF World Championship win. Doesn't count.

  • Simmons! Where's JBL and the APA theme music when you need it?

  • Haha World..Ever since I put this on here, reading comment after comment Seeing and hearing every angle of the angle..Your comment is so damn funny ..nice

  • why does ron simmons look and sounds like hes a former gang member turned cop?

  • ron simmons damn !!!!!!

  • The story I heard was that Ron Simmons said, "What the f*** was that about?" and Race said, "Sorry, Ron - I was only trying to get heat!"

  • Harley isn't racist.. he's playing a bad guy and did it to get the crowd to support Simmons more.

  • Hey,I guess he didn't have one like him before lol

  • Also around this time didn't Bill Watts (who was in charge) supposedly said some racial remarks about Hank Aaron?

  • there is a conspiracy ,lol

  • Even as a work, I'm amazed they let that fly. They were already fighting the "smokey room redneck sport" characterization, I find it baffling they'd do something like this for cheap heat. Just wow.

  • Technically Bobo Brazil was first. But still, I'm glad Ron got to shine through and get the opportunity to run with it.

  • Love Jesse Ventura's skullet

  • Glad he didn't back down like a little bitch.

  • Ron Simmons 1st African America World Heavyweight Champ.

    He should of never gone to wwf, the gladiator and nation gimmic was crap. He seems like a nice guy (out of caratere), too bad he got stuck like that.

  • @1968DartS6 The first Black world heavyweight champion - of any nationality.

  • Harley Race is awesome!

  • Ron Simmons was wrong to go at Harley Race like that at that point. He hadn't paid his dues.  He should have said "Yes Sir" and taken the message to Sting.

  • @slimydick23 haha! now thatz funny!!! Spoken like a Bobby "The Brain"

  • @slimydick23 Right answer!

  • lmaoo i know at least a couple white pepole where like dumb nigger lmao

  • W-O-R-K

  • Harley Racist, lol.

  • @loochhimself lmao

  • Harley Race, what an asshole!!

  • Ron Simmons,Harley Race,Jim Ross, you cant get no better then that DAMN!

  • Damn! Race sold that clothesline like he was still in his 30's!

  • @LastTrumpets7 2:51 yes i love that clip too.

  • Which word did he use? "boy"? that is hilarious. If this is georgia or mississippi, they should be cheering race lol

  • i liked ron simmons during these days then apa days. at this time, my best friend in school was also named ron simmons, good times

  • What, did they quickly decide to give him the role of racist just because his name is Harley Race?

  • Dont tell me this is Stone Cold

  • Was this Michael Hayes idea?

  • @z3pp3lin15 lol

  • I thought he had one word.

    "DAMN".

  • THE BOUCEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! Period!!

  • I'm sure when I saw this at the time they showed Harley from behind so you couldn't see his mouth when he said "boy" and it made it look like he said something much worse.

  • Damn he kicked some ass.

  • DAMN!

  • the super invader never amounted to any. what a waste

  • Harley Race wouldn't do something like that in a promo if he didn't believe in the person he was working with. That man believed in Ron Simmons and did that to put him over. And Ron Simmons will say it himself. If it weren't for Harley Race, he'd never be a World Champion.

  • I always had... a boy (lets bleep it for racial effect) like you carryin my bags! lol 2:19

  • Comentator has the strangest voice, its like a Jim Ross but when he was six years old

  • @Tactomanify it IS Jim Ross

  • @Pooptality :hahahahaha :D fail by me tnx man :)

  • Harley Race was the NWA World's Heavyweight Champion on May 12, 1979.

  • @mkl62 He was champion on 8 different occasions. :)

    He was the orignal record setter for most World Title reigns.

  • @TehJew22 Oops, 7 times champion. >.<

  • @TehJew22 better check your record book- Harley Race broke Lou Thez's record of 6 title reigns, Verne Gagne was an 11 time world champion in AWA- There were others long before Harley- Harley just gets to go down in History as probably the #2 or #3 all time greatest pro wrestler...

  • Nice hair style Ron.Your not going to be a world champion with a name like Farooq Asad,lol.

  • DAMN!

  • Apparently Harley Race was the only person to dislike this video

  • How long was the 'The Body' in WCW?

  • can anyone tell me what word was used at 2:22 that needed censorship?

  • @owaisinus the n word if u listen he says i have an bleep like u carying my bags

  • @9833498334fuckyou1 u mean nigger?

  • @owaisinus that dude's a fucking idiot. He said "boy" not "nigger". I can only assume they beeped it do to boy being a somewhat racially offensive term because whites would use it against blacks back in the day

  • @9833498334fuckyou1 He fucking did not. He said a "BOY" like you, and "boy" was a racial type slur whites would use against blacks. He did not say NIGGER, you idiot. They would not, and could not get away with it if they did.

  • @9833498334fuckyou1

    Wrong,he said boy and back when this actually aired,it wasnt bleeped out

  • @kcin713 thanks

  • He didn't get the Championship because he was black. DAMN!

  • @BassBeatsProductions actually, Ron Simmons did win the WCW championship, but did not hold onto it for long.

  • @davegooley - He did hold that title for roughly five months.

  • I'll always remember meeting Ron Simmons at WrestleReunion 2010. I'm an independent wrestling in SoCal and we had a great time telling each other about road stories, his stories were better than mine because of the locations, but what made it great was he liked one of my stories so much he decided to give me an autographed photo saying "The best of luck to you, Garrett. You are gonna make it!"

  • DAMN!

  • You know i never knew Jesse Ventura was in WCW. Does anyone know what year this was from?

  • @zybanday Sometime around 1990 I think.

  • That nigga just whoop your ass

  • What a skit.... the place went nuts! :-).... thanks for this!

  • LOL! They'd NEVER have an angle like that on WWE or TNA these days. "Cowboy" Bill Watts was the main one behind Simmons WCW push & was trying to get him over with Harley pullin' the (racial) heel angle. I remember when Luger had Simmons for a contract signing...turns out it was for/as Luger's limo driver! LOL! Simmons then attacked Luger. Those were funny plots.

  • damn he set his goals and he met them with flying colors no pun or offense intended.

  • 1992 is the year almost 2000 acording to Ron Simmons.

  • I wish I could have seen Ron Simmons in his prime. I only saw him as Faarooq and part of the APA. It looks like he had a pretty good career before he got to the WWF/E.

  • @reese0284 I'd say he had a better career in WWE!!! With the exception of his brief run with the WCW title, he was basically a mid card guy there.

  • @Rayla840 Are you serious? Simmons had a very good WCW career. He had a successful tag team run with Butch Reed where he won the tag team title, was US Tag team champ with Big Josh, got a major push in 1991 but didnt win the title, than finally won the title in 92 as seen here which he held for five months which for that time in WCW was a long time to hold a title.

  • I still remember as a kid watching Ron Simmons snap scoop powerslam Big Van Vader and pin him 1-2-3 on the WCW Saturday Night show to win the match and become the first Black WCW World Heavyweight Champion...I was so excited for him!

  • Damn.

  • @Chitowncantstop i'd say mid 92

  • They couldn't even do this angle nowadays. Way too contreversial.

  • @Antrizzle2009 They did like seven years ago when Bookie T had a similar angle with Triple H and Ric Flair in WWE.

  • Super invader was hercules

  • Harley Race was the NWA World's Heavyweight Champion on May 12, 1979.

  • DAMN!

  • lol lol

  • Ron Simmons the first Black World Champion in history. The Rock is the first Black World Champion in WWE history and gone on to be the great one.

  • @21richkid  Rock's not " black " . He's Samoan

  • @IbDaToNeGuY half n half, samoan mom, african-canadian dad

  • @IbDaToNeGuY Half black Half Samoan

  • @IbDaToNeGuY The Rock is both Black and Samoan!

  • Did he say coon or boy?

  • "Mr. Sting"

    That's funny.

  • "Oh God what a distasteful remark!" - Ross

    lol

    I like how they bleeped "boy". lol absurd

  • huuge Simmons fan here !!!

  • DAMN!!!

  • Jessie has to be the first person to have a bald mullet!...lol

  • THey dont' call him Harley "Race" for nothin.

  • Harley Race was the NWA World's Heavyweight Champion on May 19, 1981.

  • Ron Simmons got the al Sharpton hair style on here!

  • did enyone hear the boos

  • Looks so much like my dad. He was so fucking cool in WCW, The Nation and APA. Such a badass wrestler. I'm so glad they dropped that stupid gladiator gimmick.

  • ron simmons forgot to say DAMN

  • @apolanco602 lol

  • anyone can tell its herc underneath that mask by the way he folded his hands

  • they censor boy the 2nd time but not the 1st....

  • DAMN!!!

  • freakin Race looks like he could be Dr. D David Shultz brother lmfao

  • Damn

  • Always reminded me of Billy Dee Williams on roids. Glad he at least got a World Title run.

  • @kaizenro he didn't really have a run. vader smashed him and won it back a couple w ks later

  • Harley Race sounds like he's on some shit juice..LOL

  • looks like he said FOOL LIKE YOU

  • gimmicks like the super invader are exactly why the promotion sucked in the early nineties. ron simmons and harley race were one in a million in that company

  • it looks like he said a boy like you carrying my bag

  • did he say nigger

  • The Super Invader? From the Body Language I would say it was Hercules.

  • @Konni1969 Yeah, it does look like Herc doesn't it. I thought herc stayed in WWF til 93. Hmmm

  • @giantsfan245 Yeah, he left, came back. Back and forth.

  • @giantsfan245 - This is because it is Herc. <=0)

  • @Konni1969 that was Hercules.

  • And they made this guy into Faarooq Asaad in WWE.

  • Well DAMN!

  • I saw this on TV when it happened.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • I thought Harley did this when Simmons was challenging Luger for the title.

  • @zaius316 Yeah this was in 1991 when Simmons was fighting Luger for the title.

  • DAMN

  • Notice how Jesse doesn't get involved with in-ring activity, sticks to his role as an announcer and backs away.

  • RON WAS CHAMP FOR A MINUTE BUT SHOULD HAVE HELD IT LONGER......

  • Who was the Super Invader....looks like Hercules

  • @originalborris

    That was Hercules, he became that after he left the WWF

  • Man, Harley Race bumped like a champ for a dude his age.

  • @AngryDave113 That's because he's Harley Race.

  • wow i know its scripted but im surprised harley didnt get shot.

  • Is that Jim Ross announcing, in his younger, more orgasmic days?

  • @yugpud yep Jim Ross and Jesse the best two commentators in the business.

  • Hey Jesse. Damian Demento called. He wants his haircut back.

  • Who was super invader?

    And is that the same cat that supposedly killed bruiser brody?

  • @mrtrin No. Tht was the Invader from Puerto Rico (Jose Gonzales). And he didn't "supposedly" kill Brody. He did kill him. He just claimed that it was self defense and got off that way, but he definitely killed him.

    This is Hercules Ray Hernandez as Super Invader.

  • What I find MOST offensive is Harley's mullet at his age.

  • @BourgeoisBuffoon A bleached Perm-mullet no less!

  • In regards to the pop Ron Simmons got for beating the hell out of both of those guys........'DAMN!"

  • "Boy" gets bleeped?

  • @torchkit This was during the era where WCW announcers had to call foreign objects "international" objects because Turner thought foreign was an improper term.

  • haha Ron Simmons got more of a pop when he would just show up, say "Damn!" and leave than he did when he actually was World Champ lol

  • jim ross made this era for wcw so good because he put his heart into announcing they he was a fan watching.

  • Who was Super Invader?

  • @davidanthony559 Vader.

    

  • I remember when this happened. Just now I'm noticing the pause before Race said it. That's interesting to me. Simmons should have gone a lot farther in his career than he did. I wonder who the guy was under the mask.

  • Look @ Ventura mouthing Race's lines @ 2:15

  • Ron Simmons was never a great wrestler and should not have been the first black world champion.  Yes - it's true.

  • @aitraining Like you will never be shit in your pathetic life. Simmons was a great athlete and had good moves. What the fuck u want him to do, perform flying head scissors and shooting star presses over the ropes to the outside?

  • He said boy..Im guessing they were getting at nigger or or something. I recently purchased the Clash of the Champions set of 35 and was pretty shocked when I saw this footage.

  • @jre52301 looks like someone just wanted to type nigger.

  • Could you imagine the lawsuits if that was done today?People would be pickiting Titan Tower like no tomorrow and Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton would be all over it.

  • @deptofcorrections1 Not really. Look at the Booker T and Triple H angle for Wrestlemania in 2003.
