WCW/nWo Nitro, July 7th 1997: Randy Savage vs. "La Parka" (Or is it?)

[MREOUSDUDE]

One of the GREATEST moments in the Monday night war History !!!!!!

[DocPaulie]

Another prime example of how the WCW was an infinitely superior product to WWE.

[GhostDistortion]

@DocPaulie At times it was. Both companies offered interesting things, but after a while WCW just got stale. I quit watching WCW around mid 1999 because it just got stupid after that.

[pr0ngroups]

One of only two times I've ever "marked out" while watching wrestling.

[DGuillen74]

It's shit like this that made DDP the man!! I'm glad to see he's still B-A-DOUBLE D BADD.....BANG!!!

[LunchboxofOmni]

The swerves in WCW were nothing short of awesome. Lonnie Lane as Chris Jericho, DDP as La Parka, Dean Malenko as Ciclope. I miss wrestling like this. They kept you guessing.

[roygbivniz]

wearing my wolfpac shirt in memory of randy savage. rip

[badboiii333]

RIP macho. one of the greatest 

[MrRayge82]

RIP Mach!

[CheekiMnky]

the wrestling legend suffered a heart attack while he was behind the wheel around 9:25 AM ... and lost control of his vehicle.

Macho Man began wrestling in the WWF in 1985 2009 Jeep Wrangler when he veered across a concrete median ... through oncoming traffic ... and "collided head-on with a tree."

Savage's wife was a passenger in the vehicle during the collision --

no es la parka es la original la que siempre ha sido mas alguien robo su nombre el original es si siempre sera L.A. PARKA

[nintoolapcfloyd]

Too bad he got dealt a shitty hand in wwf, like anyone wanted to see DDP stalk undertakers wife haha

[tool26]

I so totally not saw it coming that I... switched channel... and missed that.

[berniemac1983]

I miss this time in WCW and wrestling just not the same no more

[dieegg]

DDP RULES

[patsman191]

I was fooled as a kid i was thinkin another NWO win till i seen DDP.

[MiLaNoDsL]

wcw >>>>> wwe now

[dealmaker007]

Lol the fans went crazy for that shit. Awesome.

[fogodssake]

DDPARKA

[RustySacks]

lol when he wakes up let him know...!

[brnleague99]

La Parka's awesome. I know that's really DDP. But Parka's my all time favorite luchador. I would watch his match and change the channel when everything else in WCW sucked. I love his current feud against the "imposter" La Parka in AAA. :)

[MrBB6953]

Was watching this when it originally aired...totally freaked out...never saw it coming. Unlike wrestling today where you just about anybody knows what is pretty much going to happen next.

[NoBrianNoGain]

King of baddabing baddaboom baddaBANG!!

[Mark271792]

At 4:59, does anyone notice Scott Hall doing the crotch shot? Right around the time HBK started doing it before DX formed. Part of the Klique.

[PeoplesWar]

@Mark271792 Scott Hall was doing the crotch chops as far back as Bash at the Beach 1996.

[Mark271792]

@PeoplesWar Oh...... I'll go back and check that out.

[UnFreggginReaL]

one of the best angles in the history of wrestling..

[Mark271792]

Of course this occurred on the one-year anniversary of Hogan turning heel.

[antsman88]

i think the whole genius behind this angle was you genuinly did not see it coming.

[deedooc]

remember havin dis on tape

[mcasdorph84]

if this is the one I remember the diamond cutter gets a pretty big pop

[Joeybsmooth]

la parka was one of my favorite guys . At first I was like wait La-PArka is really DDP?

[Landshark23]

@Joeybsmooth Yeah DDP was pretty cool but he was no La Parka.

[redfiresiberian]

@Joeybsmooth No la parka is a Mexican wrestler a.k.a L.A. Park

[TNbluegrasser]

Another awesome DDP moment. If we only had wrestlers like him today...

[DKvsLow]

DDP the real peoples champ!!!! BAAAAAANGGGG

[1RobinHood1]

thats ddp not la parka =P

[ShawnBronald]

lol, I was thinking he looked bigger and moved very Page-like. Diamond Dalls Parka FTW!

[TheEndKing]

Wait, La Parka unmasked?

[amansjyoutubization]

LA PARKA FOR ECW CHAMPION!!

They should bring him in already. He's the "sci fi" guy that they need.

[vh2k]

He shouldn't have taken off the mask

[nwohobgoblin]

he should have taken the mask off AFTER the pin

[dealmaker007]

@nwohobgoblin Well as soon as the Diamond cutter was done on Savage it revealed who was under the mask lol. That got a huge pop.
