Eddie and Doug Gilbert shoot in W*ING

[DelinquentBilly]

Doug just plain sucked. This is embarrassing. Did he ever do anything right?

[Ryomaslade45]

@DelinquentBilly He sucked AND he tried to pin his lameness on everyone but himself.

Wrestling pun not intended

[9262ABC]

This is the worst shoot ever. I speak English and couldn't understand what they were saying. How much less so the Japanese audience?

[diPUROhydramine]

I pledge allegiance to the flag of Giant Baba!!!!

[WORMGERM]

When he has the mask off and the hat on he looks like some crazy guy going to mow his lawn

[OtorresFitness]

I still wonder how in the hell these promotions made money when the venues looked totally empty.

[larrystarstruck]

If I remember, they were upset about the Moondogs having to put over the returning Jason the Terrible (Robles version).

[eslubin]

The japanese fans were probably still wondering who the hell they were.

[muta157]

When you bitch in English to people who speak Japanese is it kind of like a tree falling in the woods?

[mrpogo72]

wheres the footage of them pledging allegiance to Baba?

[mrblob1012]

Doug gilbert does a lot of shoot interviews

[DavidFullam]

Seriously, what was the story behind this?

[Jetlag666]

Seriously, if you were a wrestler as great as one of the Gilberts, wouldn't it piss you off if someone like Victor Quinones told you to wear a stupid halloween dress and do dull brawls?

[Rayla840]

@DavidFullam I just watched an old Eddie shoot interview (on youtube btw) and he said Doug got the Moondogs booked there and was pissed that they were told to put over Jason The Terrible who returned that night and no one liked Jason apparently. If you notice at the beginning, Eddie rolls Doug up for a pin and the ref does nothing. Then right before the sunset flip, Doug turned back and yelled at the ref to count when he was down. According to Eddie, this was all Doug's idea

[DavidFullam]

@Rayla840 Thanks for the info, this sounds like a shoot interview i should look for.

[EddyJShepard]

1:24 lol he sounds like arnie from Whats Eating Gilbert Grape... lol

[BarbedWireAttack]

R.I.P. Eddie Gilbert

[Chumpstlz1]

Sad Doug just rode eddies coattails

[jcheyney]

Doug was always so damn upset.

[larrystarstruck]

This is what I understand them to be upset about. They had a couple of Moondogs in the ring and were asked to help put over the returning Jason the Terrible (Robert Rodriguez version). So, in reaction, we get this shoot. Both of them were later photographed giving all the cameras the finger. I find it interesting the way Crypt Keeper and Leatherface played along.

[KYLEFOSTERisanilf]

who's krypt keeper?

[JKTube]

@KYLEFOSTERisanilf: It was Jose Estrada Jr., later a member of Los Boricuas in WWE in 1997-1998 with Savio Vega, Miguel Perez Jr. and Jesus Castillo Jr. during the awful "Gang Wars" feud with the Nation of Domination, the Disciples of Apocalypse and the Truth Commission.

[Muthafacko2]

HOT STUFF! HOT STUFF! HOT STUFF!

[nightwingv1]

the gilberts were out of control.

[IKEEICHOLTZ]

Another hit from the Gilberts. They never have and never will receive any credit for the stuff they did. Especially Eddie Gilbert. there is nothing today that is as good as these clips from back in the day....I blame one person for all of this..By the way FUCK LAWLER...LOL

[bizmcbizzy]

so true man....they were legends

[drew081886]

Was this recorded in a tin can? I couldn't understand a word of what Doug said.

[MatsunagaGOD]

It's in a little venue man. They were indy so they couldn't afford Kawasaki Stadium and they didn't have the best sound sytem of the time but they made up for it in good wrestling. What ever the problem the Gilberts had, this wasn't the way to go about it. Pitty the Puerto Rican Family didn't have them assassinated. And all the tlak of "Only Eddie could have come up with such a thing" How the F*** does that work? Doug did all the talking.

[mdhotstuff]

Awsome.. I never knew the Gilberts were in Japan. Only Hotstuff can come up with this, and only Hotstuff would be brave enough to do it.

[SuperTexasRed]

Eddie rules!

[eazytooquik]

today is the 13 annvserary of Eddie's death

[HazeNJuice]

GILBERT ! GILBERT! GILBERT!!!

[ShootStyleZombie]

did the Gilberts end up getting booked for All Japan afterwards?

[theitmoo1]

[Maffew]

Been looking for this footage for years, thanks a hell of a lot.

[cja2k8]

The fucking Gilberts! Never even knew about this. Ballsy move, especially being in Japan.

[scpscpscp]

[peace0ff]

[ChikaraFanDan]

Words is my hero.
