The Valiant Brothers 1977 Sacramento Promo

[PanteraMark]

I love it when Renner asks were is the tape on that and Johnny says that tape has been destroyed and Renner says oh yeah yeah!!!

[paintmn1]

Man....I must have been 13 years old last time i've seen this. Brings back memories of skateboarding into the hot sacramento evening,,,And not a care in the world except watching Sacramento wrestling and reading skate board magazine with the Z boys in it.

[Dcot41]

Funny stuff! As a kid EVERYTIME you saw jerry monti on the card you knew it was a loss, but you just kept hoping that was the week he would beat the heel! Didn't know about jobbers back then. THE GOOD OL DAYS..

[anthon21453]

the interviews were always better than the matches

[4thedefense]

OMG...It just hit me, these guys were the original Charlie Sheens, and never got any credit! "We're coming up to the Boston Garden, and you losers in Boston are gonna have the thrills of your pathetic lives to be in the same building as us!" "You're on the outside looking in, daddy!"

[POPACHELLI]

this is when heels were heels, not tweens looking and acting the the same.

[jabbojones814]

going blind trying to look at that guy's jacket...lol

[retrogamah]

let me tell you something right now baby!

[DanteDDL67]

"We tape everthing.Right now we are taping each other mentally" Calssic!

[lockenjr]

it is too bad that wrestling didnt have a mainstream craze in about 78 instead of 84. there was talk of and they should have done it too have superstar billy graham turn face in late 77 early 78 and have graham mania. the fans and he wanted it. Vince you dumbass. could you imagine if seven years earlier the big networks would have been flooded with the likes of the superstar and the valiants. they would have ruled the limited market..

[Djteedoe420]

wrestling @ it's best !!

[lockenjr]

that would suck to flunk out from the university of mexico. lol

[JoeyPencils]

great promos

[lumpagogo]

True per Joey although Jimmy had a hard time getting 10 % of the mic time. Oh, that Johnny.

[HemiVic]

I use to watch Jimmy Valiant when he wrestled in Chicago in the early to mid-80's! He was so hilarious and ultra cool! Then he did this stupid Boogie Woogie Man gimmick that just ruined his career! He should have stayed with Bobby Heenan as his manager! Those two were quite a pair!

[OaktownABQ]

What do you suppose was bleeped out at 5:36?

[ljfkjgfkjgv]

I hated the Boogie Woogie Man in the 80s, but Jimmy was pretty damn funny here. His dance/fight poses to the fans were hilarious and his "Mr. Holiday Inn" line was classic.

[sammyreed]

0:16

"Miss Wrestling" - the first wrestling "diva"!

[Mrdoctorx]

seeing "handsome jimmy" turn into "boogie woogie monkey man " felt the same as seeing "superstar graham" reduced to kung-fu graham. both of them will always piss me off because I watched them do it to themselves, 2 of the best , fucking legends! there was nothing to change....thank you for this vid!

[dextabrees]

couldn't have said it better myself!

[bigbluedinosaur]

I love The Valiant Brothers. They remind me of 70's wrestling. The Valiant Brothers RULE!

[lockenjr]

explain were the shit talkers that good in the 70's as they always give the 80's the credit for that?

[Lfdjake91]

I'm not a huge fan of the Valiants but these guys were great talkers.

[22TackDriver]

I remember watching these guys in the mid seventy's when they used to take on Dick the bruiser and the Crusher, wrestling was better then,unlike the circus we see today.

[gttorino68]

Can anyone please tell me what year this was???

Thanks

[AdoribleAdrian]

January, 1977.

[Edenbridge]

They were the greatest. Where are all those interviews they did with McMahon during the 70's?! I'd pay for a DVD full of that stuff. Somewhere I have a cassette tape of their interviews I made by putting the mic up to the TV speaker!!!

[AdoribleAdrian]

I did the same thing. I have hours of audio interviews that I've transferred to different formats over the years. Now I have them on my iPod. Sometimes when I'm playing cards and listening I'll start laughing and people assume I'm listening to some comedian. Sometimes I explain and sometimes I don't.

[retrogamah]

@AdoribleAdrian hahaha great thing to record them on cassettes and listening to them as comedy show lol! I like this!

[thegreatpampero]

The Valiant Brothers ruled. They would be over today if they were around.

[OaktownABQ]

I think I'm going to have to start taping my own meals...

[OaktownABQ]

You know, I think I remember seeing a Valiant Brothers film on the Johnny Carson Show. Also, it's well known that the shareholders of Holiday Inn were seriously considering changing the name of the hotel chain to the Valiant Brothers Inn.

:-)

[mlsgtj]

Of course they took that offer back after they found out that Handsome Jim stole one of their towels....

[dberlinguette]

Jesus, these guys were hilarious! I remember watching them as a kid at my grandfather's home and I thought they were hilarious back then.

Good stuff.

[Wayneman117]

Yeah,I only remember Jimmy,but like you said.Hes pretty funny.I still talk about him to my younger friends at work,good stuff.

[Tito74]

Best Valiant Bros. clip on you tube.

[henson3260]

They were some of greatest trash talkers of all time. They were hilarious.

[FujiGeneral]

"Everything we do is on tape." I wish there was more tape of the Valiants.

[OaktownABQ]

Miss Wrestling and Hank Renner both look like it's all they can do to keep from cracking up with laughter!

These guys are great! Thank your for posting this...

[Lovelygal71]

@OaktownABQ I love it, love the blonde hair too. Cool footage. :)

[1towman1]

I remember that Saturday afternoon when the Valiant brothers destroyed the Royal Kangaroos within 5 minutes for the U.S. Tag Team Championship. Nice to see Hank Renner again.

[MoondogMayne]

You gotta love The Valiant Brothers. This is rare stuff. Thanks for posting.
