Baby Doll's face turn! J.J. Dillon and company really knew how to create some great storylines and mix it with great action in the ring. Their creativity was defintely something else! I just wish they were still in the business today instead of McMahonland on Monday nights. These were definitely the true heydays of pro wrestling in my book. I grew up watching this in my college years in the 80's and I would almost fight over the tv set to watch it on Saturdays and Sundays!
J.J. was always a gentleman, plus a financial genius. Tully understood how to treat women. I always wanted to invest in 'Tully Blanchard Enterprise'....I'm sure it was one of the best stocks trading on Wall Street at this time. LOL
JJ knew here that Babydoll was part of the excess fat that needed to be trimmed from Tully Blanchard Enterprises. He orchestrated her termination from the company so that Tully could properly focus - a broad like that weakens the legs AND the company balance sheet. And although her very public firing was controversial, it led to a huge upswing in the price of TBE stock, with a concurrent increase in EPS and sharp drop in company debt. Captain Save-A-Ho Rhodes should have minded his own business.
And I thought ECW were the originators of males beating up females in wrestling!! That sounded like a STIFF slap from Tully at 0:52. David Crockett's reaction("Aye Tully, What Are You...) to the slap really put this over. What a way to turn Baby Doll into a babyface.
And then he states after looking at the footage "and she's going to have a lesson taught her like no lesson ever taught to anybody". That sounds like a promise for further woman beater treatment.
@jays71276 I enjoyed when the wrestlers would justify their violence against a woman by insinuating that the victim had neither the class nor the poise to be considered a real woman. If a face used that rationale, the crowd would accept his action, but a heel never got away with it (even if his victim was the type who only acknowledged the crowd with contempt).
the baby doll angle and the feud between tully and dusty was one of the best ever and what made the nwa the best wrestling organization in the world, head and shoulders above the lame wwf.
That's fuckin' bullshit! Blanchard is a piece of shit and Dusty punked him like the bitch that he his. Man, I remember watching that happen on TV. So wrong, even if it is staged.
If she was mine I woulda handled it at home. I woulda slapped her,bent her over and gave her a good,hard,rough anal fuck. That'll teach her....yeah... that'll teach her
Slapping a woman in front of hundreds of fans and on national tv, and both Tully & Dusty treating her like a piece of property. I don't care if it was fake, that shit ain't cool!
well she was going for a switch blad i saw it thats why he hit her he had to she was going to cut him.. then that fat nogood tralior park trash plumer comes butting his nose in.. im glad tully left her where he found baby doll.. in that same place he found her some old skidrow soup kicthen off the panhandle..
I remember this I was there at the Greensboro Coliseum it was on dec 28 1985 it was the day before the kiss (the asylum tour) concert that I was at the next night.
@pattersongrove I was there when this happened too. I was a HUGE Tully Blanchard fan, but didn't like him slapping Baby Doll. And of course, here came Dusty "Iv'e gotta be involved in everyone's angle" Rhodes to make the save.
did you go to the show 3 or 4 months before that happend in charlotte where babydoll came in dressed as a cop and caused magnum to loose the us belt thoes were the days now its garbage , garbage & more garbage .
I don't see how liberating it was for Baby Doll to be Dusty's woman. Dusty told told Tully, "She doesn't belong to you no more! She belongs TO ME!" Trading one form of slavery for another?
I may be in the minority here, but I couldn't STAND Dusty Rhodes. Hated him back then, and still hate him now. What an overrated, 3-move wonder. How was this tub so popular? HOW??? And he always had to be the 'Knight in Shining Armor'. I LIVED to see him get his ass kicked by the heels, ANY heel.
I remember this incident very well as well as the violent feud between Dusty Rhodes and Tully Blanchard. This is when Baby doll became a crowd favorite. She also feuded with Jim Cornette after Cornette tried to put her out of wrestling by striking her in the abdomen with his tennis racket.
I remember when Jim Cornette feuded with Baby Doll, Magnum T.A. and Dusty Rhodes wore black masks, trench coats, cowboy hats, black t-shirts and jeans, and called themselves the James boys. The gimmick was a way to get back at Cornette and the Midnight Express.
I remember this also. I was watching WCW Saturday Night when this match went down. It was the opening match of the program. They came to the ring to some country-western style music as Cornette and the Midnight Express looked very bewildered. Then Cornette went berserk and began yelling "Wait a minute! Wait a minute! I know who they are!" From there, he was yelling at the bell ringer not to ring the bell to start the match. But it began anyway!
Once the match began, he was demanding that Jim Crockett come to ringside and end the match immediately. But the "James Boys" would execute a double belly-to-suplex on both members of the Midnight Express and won the match. The Crowd went crazy! Then Baby Doll would charge out from the back and chase after Cornette from ringside with a bullrope! What memories!
@CraigJericho I can go one better. What was on those photo's that Baby Doll had on Dusty? I heard that it was going to be revealed that he slept with a black woman dressed in drag.
I watch these old videos and wonder how it is that Vince owns this business. He is so fucking dumb, why hasn't anyone put him in his place? I am 21 yrs old and a fairly fucking cool one lol... and this NWA stuff from 1970, 1980 is more relevant than any of the bullshit out there today. Not even the indies can match the brilliance of good ol' southern rasslin'. Vince is the reason MMA became so popular in this country. So many combat sports fans with no venue of recourse.
I agree! In my opinion, Tully's "up there" with some wrestling's greatest heels/villains: Roddy Piper, Greg Valentine, Hans Schmidt, Paul Orndorff, the (Fabulous) Freebirds, and, believe it or not, "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan.
tully was a pimp!! but the cool thing bout tully he knew when to be the chicken shit hell if he was in the ring with the road warriors but if he was in with dusty or magnum then he'd turn into a badass, randy orton could learn from the pimp!!
Not only that, don't you think it was stupid for Tully to defend JJ against Baby Doll? Tully says, "Get your hands off him!" JJ is bigger than Tully for crying outloud!
nah it just made him look like a bigger dick to get more heat or as Raven says about what heels have to do in all his shoots Tully was "showing his ass" figuratively speaking
no way! she wasnt there she off in some dumbass place. plus JJ is the main money source and mastermind, in other words she was insulting the brains of the operations!
