Damian Demento vs. Bob Backlund

[Nostaglia2012]

See a match against Hulk Hogan. Backlund picked him up in such a way I had never seen before. Check out Wikipedia for more info. Have a good day.

[MaverickHunterX3]

Usually, a non-gimmick wrestler is the one who ends up jobbing. Not on this one though.

[HopnChop]

Geez, poor guy. He should have been allowed to change characters. From what I've seen he'd be the perfect "whiner".

[Seanatonin]

Jober vs. "Mr. World Class" Bob Backlund

[MrJSteffey]

Bob Backlund is a character,One of the greatest technical wrestlers of all time.

[mmmikeyxx]

I liked Demento!

Last comment posted prior to this was 4 days ago...meaning to say I'm not the only one searching for old WWF videos. I miss the old WWF days...

[BoRaiChoWins]

Bob Backlund looks like he should get owned. He looks like he should be the jobber and Demento the guy they are trying to market. I still have no idea how Backlund was any good at all.

[jblcn1042]

Demento was underutilized...as some people have said on here if he was paired with the right people like Undertaker, Shango, Boogeyman, or any dark side faction he could have made it much bigger. He was always one of my most memorable wrestlers ever and im sad he didnt make it bigger.

[xxWOLFPACxx]

hey. how many times have you guys been on tv? how many times have you been in the wwf? if you can become more than a jobber, please be my guest, but just stop talking trash about someone who's doing his thing

[WatchVenusSpa]

Man Damian just wasn't over and JR wasn't any good EVER!

[djdc1985]

the battle of no theme music!

[warren5422000]

Yeah damian kinda sucked, but i always thought if he were used correctly, he could be ok... Like lets imagine Undertaker had his Ministry of Darkness, and it consisted of Jake the Snake as his right-hand man, Papa Shango and Damien Demento.. That could have been ok...

[DrewBludd]

Bob Backlund for WWE HOF

[Rayla840]

@DrewBludd It'll happen eventually. They offered a few years ago, and he refused cuz he said he wasn't retired yet.

[sayanroy36]

bob buckland. now there is a true wrestling legend

[ZenPimps]

Damien Demento is Phil Theis. After his short grappling career(1987-94) he is now an artist, painting and sculpting. At least he has found his calling because wrestling sure wasn't it.

[SouthyA]

Chimel used to be one of the guys who put the ring together, so i guess he doubled up on this trip

[slwalsh]

Tony Chimmel?!! Wow. I knew he was a ring attendant before he became an announcer, but this is the earliest I've ever heard his announcing...

[ferdi1441]

I even miss Damian Demento. That says everything about todays WWE.

[filthiestfish]

Yep that's Tony Chimmel as they couldn't be bothered to get Mike Mcguirk or Howard Finkel to come over to the UK

[kid66625]

wwe is crap now that it's pg no blood TNA is going hardcore finally i can enjoy wrestling again VINCE screw yr pg rateing

[sayanroy36]

@kid66625

what has that to do anything with this? are you stupid?

[hardymycat]

is that tony chimel as the ring announcer?

[RyanIsOffended]

@hardymycat

Sounds exactly like him. Surprising, since this is from 1993.

[madg27ny]

@hardymycat yeah, wwe likes to edit their old videos with new current voices, even though they may have not even be there. wwe is so disgraceful

[WatchVenusSpa]

I recall Backlund being in the AWA in the mid 80's but does anyone remember if he ever faced Billy Robinson?

[123Sarrah]

i agree,jr dumb hick,n vince dumb irish fenian cunt!

[fajbusiewicz]

damian demento without a intro song.

[thepapax04]

Man Zzzzzzzzzz. Not a good match.

[dickerandeal]

bob backlund is one sexy wrestling legend

[countbloodula]

JR has the most annoying HICK voice

should have been gone long time ago, but since mcmahon is a dumb ass irish, what do u expect?

[Greivious99]

Damien actually wasnt a jobber a jobber is somebody who comes in the ring and doesnt get but one or two punches hit and gets the crap beat out of them to make a superstar of higher quality look good. And Damien always had and impressive showing as did he here.

[fiendwithoutaface66]

a jobber is someone is who is "currently in the ring" as demento is here! He doesn't even get an entrance. Considering demento's track record I'd rank him as a jobber capable of defeating no name generic jobbers (local wrestlers used on wwf shows) but face him against any midcarder and expect a demented loss.

[philipkeaveney777]

@fiendwithoutaface66 Dude, no hassle but damien went on a undefeated streak for months when joined wwf. It still happens today. They were putting him over and then as he said he wouldn't bend over for exec cunts.........

[fiendwithoutaface66]

@philipkeaveney777 aside from Tito Santana, Jim Brunzell, and Virgil, his wins were all over local enhancement talent= jobbers. Supposedly he debuted against Jeff Jarrett, I'm assuming he lost.

[cbaldwinjr]

@fiendwithoutaface66

Aka...a Jobber to the Stars

[28098610w]

match is about as good as the fabulos mula and may young going at it

[biloretard]

remember heel Bob?that shit was funny

[MattOuellette88]

Damian's ass was sticking out at 2:22

[brannengarrett]

HA Demento lost! that jobber.

[pussyloverx]

demento was always on raw he was a good jobber

[slydewinder]

One of the things that's wroung with wrestling now is there's no Bobby Heenen

[TheWrestlingGurus]

That was a good roll up by Bob Backlund good flexibility and bridging done

[dbostick82]

Jobber! (Damian)

[RampageREDDEVIL]

way to lay down on your back and take the 3 count damian you fucking JOBBER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Stereorage]

He was a jobber, but he was a credible one. He was one of the last jobbers a new guy would go through before going onto the bigger competition. So he was pretty much the top tier of "jobberhood". LOL! Sorta like Salvatore Sincere was.

[00RSZEX]

Iron Mike Sharpe, Brooklyn Brawler, Barry Horowitz, Demento, the ORIGINAL J.O.B. Squad!

[RPRpsych]

Damien Demento is a JOBBER.

[kiltsonfire164]

Snitsky reminded me of damien demento.

[mjwkidd1982]

5:32 - Shut your face!!!

[bevan619]

Lol Demento loses again.

[3tp]

i love Heenan, but this is some of the worst rasslin i ever seen

[rocksecurity1123]

Bobby Heenan Rules!!! i hate you Jim Ross!!!

[ggallinismylord]

Jr and the King have nothing on Heenan and monsoon, but you gotta admit they are 100 times better than Michael Cole. Him and the coach are both shitty.

[Countdown2Hangar18]

and michael cole is far better than the wcw guys the brain was stuck with. tenay is a jackass and tthe other one shiavone is hands down the worst announcer i have ever heard. what did the brain do that was so bad to get that punishment? lol

[WrestlingSatanTV]

Don't get me started on Don West

[zotrunner]

...in the ring from the outer reaches of your mind.... YES!!!! I miss old skool WWF

[MrPucky]

Amazing, listen to how young Jim Ross sounds.

[Seamus514]

The commentary by Bobby Heenan is classic! Thanks for posting!
