[marathonriverrat]

Just a typical Saturday morning in Memphis wrestling. Gtta love it.

[marathonriverrat]

2 all time greats that were taken way to soon. RIP Savage and Rood. Young guys today watch and learn.

[KitlerAdolf]

Awesome clip! I love Memphis Wrestling.

[marzykjones]

Rick Rude is bigger than King Kong Bundy?????

[karkovice10]

I just have one question: Where was Jerry Jarrett's REAL trophy while all this was going on? :)

[moggy1231]

rick rude is tough but he's not tougher than haku or harley race. Nobody messed with haku and harley race.

[axeldtf]

Wow that actually looked a like a real fight.. good stuff

RIP Randy "Macho Man" Savage. 1952-2011

[zzremington]

Savage has always been a terrible good guy - Poffomania running wild!

[AlbanianMan]

@zzremington are you kidding me? Savage was like one of the most over babyfaces of all time.

AL joelson: "Always leaving them wanting more. " That was 80's early 90's wrestling.

[lizardman77]

Nice brawl, of course Rude would've destroyed Lawler in real life.

[jdsrazor66]

@lizardman77 why because he did roids

[lizardman77]

@jdsrazor66 No t exactly, Rude was a freak of nature, roids or no roids. He used to put guys down in arm wrestling his one arm against their two......FREAK. He was also Randy Savage;s bodyguard when Savage was WWF champ in 88-89, Why? Because Vince made him, because everyone knew not to mess with Rick....ask Paul Orndorf, Rude ko'd him with a slap, not even a punch....ouch.

[rbky04]

This was in 1984. A week after seeing this brawl, I saw the tag team match at Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky.

[CadillacL]

Please Vince, pay attention to how you run an angle, work a crowd!

[mikemike4315]

i saw tojo in there at the end was he a face or heal at the time?

[Tennoutdrsman]

@mikemike4315

face

[geodeuce]

Who was on that card?

[seawind0721]

Ahh, those were the days!

[buck2239]

Wow this is one of the reasons Memphis will always be one of my favorite territories.

[steviemacful]

hey vince you could learn a thing or two watching these old clips lance russell vs mike cole no contest lance is the shit i wish wwe would go broke lance was my favorite commentator period !!!!!!

[rb5065]

what "tournament" is Lance Russell talking about?

[deptofcorrections1]

Anybody know if the video of Rick Rude destroying Lawlers Lincoln continental is on here.Please let me know.Thanks

[zgomer1]

The good old days!

[kpac31]

boy this was too wild for today's wrestling.

[monster226]

@kpac31 I don't know if they have the booking intelligence today to come up with those type angles that we enjoyed with Memphis Wrestling! You had Lawler and Jarrett booking the angles in Memphis and occasionally Dutch and Dundee would too. You just dont have that in todays setup!

[MrWrestlingGuy2010]

@monster226

Dundee was quite possibly the greatest wrestling booker of the past 50 years. The guy was a genius.

[WizardBogle01]

@kpac31 True, what does the crap that WWE produces have anything to do with Wrestling?

[unpoeticpoet099]

Lawler threw the trash can @ Rude. FUNNY!

[monster226]

This is one of my favorite angles!!It was always exciting to hear the crowd go nuts in Memphis!

[CombatSportFan]

"Get em Randy!" one of those times when Lance loses any sense of impartiality and just wants the good guys to go nuts. I LOVE IT!

[seawind0721]

Ahh the good old days!

[lakecumberland]

Bundy was good on the mike.
