Dr Death has left his mark on the wrestling world. One of the very best heavyweight wrestlers who ever lived, who could make it look like he is goddamn murdering his opponents while ensuring their safety. As deadly as it looks, Williams was admired for protecting guys who would take the Back Drop Driver.
Erick Stevens uses the Gutwrench Powerbomb, and calls it the Doctor Bomb.
I never noticed at first and I just noticed that this is the japanese cover of the song, so Doctor death roves it roud. He was a real piece of work and he'll be missed, thankfully he'll never truly leave the wrestling community, his fans and the many videos of him on youtube will see to that.
many ppl are using music that is under copyright for their videos. sooner or later they are not available in some countries. no idea why i can watch this video though it was uploaded 2 years ago.
I am saddened to learn of the death of Steve Williams. I saw him in person for the first time on Dec. 27, 1987, at The Scope in Norfolk, VA. He won the Bunkhouse Stampede Battle Royal that night, ousting Barry Windham, who he had a subtle feud with. Steve, you gave it your all in the ring. It didn't matter if you were cheered or booed. Our reaction was our acknoledgement. And you knew it. I feel that Terry Gordy welcomed you when you crossed over. Thank you for the memories. We will miss you.
Dr.Death was one of the greatest performers I've ever seen. I am saddened beyond words that I'll never be able to see him perform live or to shake his hand and tell him of the inspiration he's been to me over the years.
Great video, I've been looking for a Dr Death video like this for sometime.
Although I have to add that this is definitely not KISS. It sounds completely different than any of their versions of this song, and the fact that its being sung "I rove it roud" should be a dead giveaway. Its a good cover though.
R.I.P. Dr. Death--one of the best every. And someone else may have mentioned this but that's definitely KISS performing 'I Love It Loud' on the video. Gene Simmons' voice is unmistakable.
RIP. His match v Kobashi in 1994 where he defended his Triple Crown was the match that me fall in Love with Japanrese wrestling and made me not watch that WWE crap ever again. Legend.
Dr. Death Steve Williams was tough...........I watched him take scott steiner apartment during this tag team match. This is bad. Thanks for the upload.
what about vader, bruiser brody, destroyer, abdullah, the funks( not saying all of these are greater, but you have to consider them). i agree williams was huge and definitely one of the biggest, but the word "greatest" is thrown around waay too much. although, hansen probably was...
You're right. I didn't say Greatest! I was meaning to say second most POPULAR behind Stan Hansen. Their is difference between the word greatest & popular.
I gotta say, just when I thought I'd seen the sickest Backdrop Drivers, the one's put on Akiyama in this vid were disgusting, lol. And that last backdrop on Misawa.....OMG.

Morishima uses the Back Drop Driver.
Unlike WWE, ROH remembers and respects this man.
RIP, Steve Williams.

@Funnysterste It might be because the song is a cover version by a Japanese band, not the original KISS song.
