Terry Boulder Promo vs Ron Bass (CWA 7-21-79) Classic Memphis Wrestling

[9700jeff]

Hogan was always a great talker.

[don62snodgrass]

Hogan really had mic skills even then! lol His "brother" looks like a real flamer!  What a gay duo!

[rtfuhj]

I like the version of the clam cool hulkster!

[fmthebaron]

Full head of hair? He's half bald in the front even way back in 79 lol!

[MyNephewIsTough]

Was this when Hogan went to TNA?

[jshkendra]

They both looked like porn stars!!!!!!!!! Do ya think Hulk's ex is telling the truth about Hulk and Beefcake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GhostSpectre]

Holy shit, I didn't even recognize Brutus 'The Barber' Beefcake.

[theboombody]

Looks like there are about 2 dozen people in the audience.

[rbattles52]

Hulk Hogan always looked like an old man to me, even when he was younger lol

[JamesGod08]

Has Hogan been dying his beard for 30 years?

[Wayneman117]

Eddie? Kind of career did he have, seeing,heaing him for the 1st time.

[ratedtriplex]

@Wayneman117 same here, i've never heard of him

[MrMKH2010]

Hulk Hogan and Brutus Beefcake. Luvers 4ever

[hexkwondo]

Nice never seen this one before. This is probably the best promo he's ever put out!

[capucchan8]

Hogan with a Southern Accent

[J5MARLON]

@capucchan8 Well you got to remember he is born in Augusta Georgia but grew up in Tampa Bay so he is southern as you can get.

[EmperorTaebok]

sad to say, that might be the best promo hogan ever cut, he didn't improve one bit since this

[ChannelExtreme]

@EmperorTaebok - LOL!

[J5MARLON]

@EmperorTaebok He stop saying Daddy.

[LMDNYC82]

@EmperorTaebok u gotta be kidding that was horrible

[EmperorTaebok]

@LMDNYC82 I didn't say it wasn't horrible, I said it was one of his best.

You might consider taking a course in sarcasm.

[sanctainquisitio]

Gay.

[kmg4]

So he actually did have hair at one time.

[flipgood89]

Brutus looks like a lil bitch here, lol....man, hogan's southern accent was thick. I wonder if he was just exaggerating it for the Memphis crowd. I know he's from Florida, but he sounds like he's from the deep south in this vid.

[LadyE77]

Beefcake kind if looks like a beefy burly blonde version of.....Gallagher

[niteholler]

@LadyE77 Beefkook is gay. i read about how he used to grab guys butts backstage until he made the mistake of grabbing Haku's butt and Haku beat the crap out of him for it.

[dp100eboggan]

Hogan used to hang out with farrah fawcett?

[galagajunkie]

This was right before he turned down a spot in Metallica.

[kgp8]

@galagajunkie Wait, Hogan turned down Metallica? WTF ws he thinking?

[TheBryanSaraShow]

@galagajunkie that actually happened?

[m8x425]

Brutus, needs a Barber, Beefcake

[ilikethecoke]

It's so weird seeing Hogan with a full head of hair

[dylanlenn]

haha look at brutus

[frankmaiorana66]

Ed Leslie had several personnas before he became Brutus Beefcake. Remember, this was 5 yrs before Brutus Beefcake. The wig, he must have found a way to work with it. I think in one area he was billed as Dizzy Hogan.

[ThaOneChrisJONES]

He's just not the same without the Red&Yellow ( sometimes Black&White ) and all the sweat, "BROTHERS !" and "DUDES !". lol

[zZHighTimeZz]

@Y2p731 Whoa chill out, ok i got it wrong but you should have worded it better. Now that i understand i will remove my previous comment.

[zZHighTimeZz]

@zZHighTimeZz Its just alot of people believe the the stuff that comes out of that womans mouth when of course shes going to say that stuff to sell a story, now that she doesnt have Hogans money she has to make it in desperate ways. tbh i couldnt care less what these wrestlers do in their private lives, its meant to be about the wrestling. Sorry about taking your comment the wrong way.

[MrOmarjafet]

Ha ha ha Beefcake looks like that cable guy from Cleveland Show

[Sokolikjr]

FYI to everyone that dont know this, But Hogan & Beefcake are not really brothers they were just billed as bothers in there early days in the wrestling biz the real story is Hogan dated his sister in high school & that is how they met each other & Beefcake is a few yrs younger then he is so he was a under class man in high school & hung around him when he dated his older sister then they got into pro wrestling together & the rest is history

[dzsquared1]

Wake me up when the match starts.

[jesusfreak47331]

How did Beefcake ever wrestle with the wig on? That is horrible!

[MrSoullicker]

drop so many eyes...>:)

[Avahi1057]

Hulk Hogan = 32 years of balding.

Hulk and his boyfriend Brutus make a cute couple. I can only imagine Mr. Bollea was turned on by Ed's lovely Farrah Fawsett hairstyle.

[Buckeyecat2002]

Never knew Hogan had a brother, Eddie Bolder.

[Y2p731]

This just add to the rumors that Hogan's ex-wife Linda that Hogan and Beefcake are gay. That's according to Linda.

[BorderCityBandit]

apparently Hulk was just on steroids at this point, later on he would add the cocaine,Hell it helped,lets face it, this ;promo was boring, Ill take my wrestlers coked up, at least thier entertaining,lol

[dmunkybrown]

Brutus looks like Terry from the Cleveland Show.

[desamania]

When didn't this guy look old???!!!

[kenpalmer1965]

Wow, that was Brutus Beefcake? I also never knew that he and Brutus were brothers. This was three years before Terry appeared in the movie Rocky III as the wrestler "Thunderlips" in 1982.

[wtf66611]

Brutus looked like a gay porn star from the 70's.

[misakisheraz]

Oh holly crap that is Brutus ??? man

[misakisheraz]

That explains why Hogan has 70's mustache

[evrbody]

Not enough "brother"s.

[tonypanz]

@evrbody His "brothers" were "daddys" back then lol

[BBQkrewe]

awesome video and info, THANKS!

[marczel99]

Holy crap! Brutus Beefcake is rockin the farrah fawcett hair-doo back in the day. (Brutus was known as Ed Boulder then-real name Ed Lesley)

[suplex2000]

Did anyone notice that Hulk's brother "Eddie Boulder" is Brutus Beefcake?

[joesaysso]

@suplex2000 The description of the video sure did.

[RAV52]

Jeezus those dudes look like they were hangin and bangin for three hours straight before this interview!

[jmoney31705]

damn eddie shut up and let hulk talk

[BBQkrewe]

@jmoney31705 LMAO!!

[Castleinthesky007]

Brutus has himself a Farrah Fawsett haircut.

[angelinaramon]

Hogan looked bad ass back then.

[Cazz8203]

poor guy, his scalp never had a chance...haha....love ya hulkster!!

[mdhotstuff]

Thank God they both left Memphis 

[bunzy11]

1:21 lol nice hair on brutus beefcake :P

[1pezeukajr]

Damn! Hogan with a full head of hair! Never seen that before, lmao!

[kaltblut]

@1pezeukajr yeah, and he actully gave half of it to the dude on the left :D

[MissDeeCole]

macho mans famous flying eye drop

[HogansDisciple]

Jerry jarrett gave him the name "the hulk". fyi

[ChannelExtreme]

@HogansDisciple - Thanks for the info. ...I should have guessed--all roads lead to Memphis, after all. :)

[phallictractor]

@ChannelExtreme I am glad people are starting to realize this. Jarrett, not vince was the brains, they were just the business guys.

like steve jobs wasnt the engineer, he was just the idea guy, wozniak was the engineer.

[ChannelExtreme]

@phallictractor - Good point. Vince trusted Jerry Jarrett and really believed in his genius (ie., his success on a shoestring budget), so much so that he put Jerry in charge of running the WWF while Vince was on trial (as we all remember) for allegedly providing his wrestlers with steroids.

[phallictractor]

@ChannelExtreme You must be a fan of the original Lil Jimmy too. haha.

[kgp8]

@ChannelExtreme I didn't know that. I wonder how Hogan can use the Hogan name in other promotions when Vince Sr. made the name?

[BBQkrewe]

@ChannelExtreme you are correct grasshoppa, all roads lead to memphis in wrasslin'. end of story.

[capitalismforme]

@HogansDisciple That's not what Hogan says.

[HogansDisciple]

@capitalismforme Read hogans book, that is what hogan says. Hogan sat next to the incredible hulk and made him look small so jerry jarrett said wow your the hulk. True story.

[hellbilly34a]

damn! his brother was droppin eyes on him.

[jethronb]

wow beefcake is lookin buff

[mjbab73]

I'm confused...Is Ron Bass his daddy or brother? Well it is Memphis so I suppose he could be both ;)

[pazios2002]

that was a really bad hair and mustache job for the beefcake. Wow. 

[unmokable]

LOL, is that Beefcake?

[jpowers55]

That dude on the right has jobber written all over him.

[ShootNeutrality]

That big guy with the glasses and the blond hair is not going anywhere in wrestling. Take it to the bank.

[MissDeeCole]

Daddy

[Lovelygal71]

DAMN! These guys look great! :D

[TheLizardKing1967]

Augusta Georgia's finest. HULK HOGAN

[The1baddman]

Ric Flair,Greg"The Hammer" Valentine,Buddy Landell;hell every blond woman back in the day says damn; i wish i had that hair.

[The1baddman]

I can't believe that was Brutus Beefcake back then before his WWF/E days in the mid 80's what a diffrence.

[MuggleSnuggles]

Beefcake looks like Cheryl Tiegs.

[xxpandamidknightxx]

@MuggleSnuggles With a moosetash! Hehe!

[wtf66611]

Hulk used to sound like a southern hick, LOL

[MrScr3wy]

@wtf66611 He IS a Southern hick.

[BOX5]

The new boulder brothers are punk and colt lol yell

[BOX5]

Sylvester the cat says to ed "how are you today my fine feathered friend" yell

[rhyanwood1]

Brutus Beefcake???

[Philipe0849]

Wow three and a half rolls of people..

[RAV52]

Boulder has the swag of man who shall become the Messiah one day, while Brother Eddie looks as if there's a beauty salon next door to Gold's Gym in Tampa!

[MrBeefinjection]

Holy craap! That's Beefcake?!! Lol. Dig the look dude!

[NWpowerhouse85]

Hogan should've worked out other parts of his body besides his fucking arms, talk about looking like a disproportioned idiot...

[bo0tsy1]

Ole Hulkster, cutting promos as bad as his wrestling... Wish he had gotten better at wrestling.

[Pintassilgo12]

WHATCHA GONNA DO WHEN BOULDERMANIA RUNS WILD ON YOU?

[rogerscottburchett1]

brutus befcake and hulk hogan



[JoBo6772]

WOW, NICE "FEATHERED" HAIRon "Brother Eddie" LOL

[retawdee]

@JoBo6772 Kinda reminds me of the Farrah Faucet poster. LOL!

[RickOFtheJames]

Was this filmed in a high school gym?

[CombatSportFan]

@RickOFtheJames WMC TV 5 Studio in Memphis, Tennessee the way wrestling was supposed to be.

[Junkay2]

My goodness, Ed Boulder (Brutus Beefcake) looks like Farrah Fawcett with that hairdo! Not very becoming!

[oldschool6804]

most wrestlers don't like each other brother doesn't mean crap!

[LEEKYLE99]

He has known Ed Leslie pretty much his whole life. I hardly recognized him here though!

[vengtube]

hogan is so bad with the mic

[Derby14]

Hogan and Beefcake...always in the same place...

[slimydick23]

Hogan could never cut a good promo in one take.

[ph1484]

LMAO!!!! @ fucking Brutus Beefcake!!!

[Poffomaniac]

excellent picture quality

[stufaman]

Hard to believe he was just another big wrestler before WWF turned him into the first wrestling super hero.

[MrDaaark]

@stufaman Hulkamania started in AWA actually.

[stufaman]

@MrDaaark Well yes. But WWF pumped all that money into it.

[KYExtemper]

A Hogan promo isn't the same when it doesn't start with "Well you know something Mean Gene!"

[briank06261973]

Brother Bruti sporting blond hair and a mustache.

[davide453]

Well, I'd shag Brutus Beefcake!

[egkjr]

Brutus Beefcake looked like Triple H in that video. uncanny resemblance.

[mrhollister09]

@egkjr Ha! He actually does.

[Bigdam38]

its nice to see that in wrestling everybody is family. hulk hogan used to call guys daddy, then he called them brother, ric flair calls a lot of guys brother too, stone cold in his early days called everybody son, its just heart warming

[NWpowerhouse85]

@Bigdam38 LMFAO

[LastTrumpets7]

@Bigdam38 Yeah until you realize that their code words for the pimp game and let's one know who the pimp and who the ho. Daddy is the pimp or elder f*ck buddy, and brother is a peer or fellow ho, and son is a ho from the standpoint of a pimp or elder. Real twisted stuff. Go see what Kamala had to say if you think I'm pulling your chain. I learned this stuff from old school pimps and mobsters so I know it's so!

[mamacornettesmoney]

@LastTrumpets7 Pimps do use that terminology, but the fact is that tough talking guys from all walks of life use it. It's not exclusive to the underworld. Not saying wrestling isn't "underworld", because it most certainly is, but that's "tough guy" talk no matter where you are at or who you are running with.

[tyciol]

@Bigdam38 Isn't calling someone "son" when you're younger and not an older fatherly figure usually done as an insult?

[arodomus]

Wow! Hulk Hogan back in the late 70's. Paying dues man.

[buttercremehonda]

Call me crazy, but I got a feeling that this guy made it big in the business.

[eslubin]

it looks like brutus is wearing a circus tent on his head

[billywhitewolf]

He still said 'brother' a lot then too but he spoke normally in promos this early unlike his hulkamania days onwards and 'daddy' was said a lot in wrestling in the 70's by just about everybody lol

[VinceThePinch]

@billywhitewolf ya, i think the cocane was better in the 80s

[eslubin]

The comments here are better than the vid

lol

glamor shot 1:21 for "eddie boulder". he's ready for primte time cat daddy. gonna be a STAHH!

[Pinwormx]

Edge and Christian kayfabe brothers who?

[nyctid]

Yea verily, Brutus Beefcake had the fairest hair in all the land...

[eslubin]

@nyctid LMAO

[frrrrrunkis]

Check out Eddie "Brutus Beefcake" Boulder...lol

[SpoilerNumberOne1978]

i wish i had a dollar for everytime a wrestler said "daddy" on Memphis wrestling!!

[eslubin]

@SpoilerNumberOne1978 lol

[SpoilerNumberOne1978]

daddy!  LOL
