  • "I do not want anyone in the ring when the great and powerful baron is at work" LOL

  • "and that is all the people need to know."

  • the baron is not there to make fruit salad

  • I was lucky enough to see Mr. Raschke and his co horts at the History Theatre in St. Paul. It simply was one of the funniest shows I have ever seen. Jim, you need to do a sequel to it. Mad Dog Vachon was there telling story after story and people listened to him very attentive and alertly. And dat is all da peeple neet ta know.

  • I saw him live in 1973.. He + Moose Cholac ... in a small place..

    Even being a bad man .. He gave me the death grip,, Thats when I knew it was all a smile. May we all ?

  • This guy is awesome, my favorite wrestler of all time

  • The Baron!!!!I grew up with this guy on my t v!!!!!Dick the bruiser,the Crusher,Pepper Gomez!!!1Oh,my god,im a kid again!!!Thank you for posting this!!!!

  • I love you Baron! I wish you still had your place up by Lake George! Keep it up!

  • He's still got it!

  • i took your advice, 3570378. I told my girlfriend about him and actually let her watch him on video. The Baron really turned her on and I was the lucky recipient of her amorous affection. Thanks, 3570378 and, most of all, thanks Baron von Raschke.

  • You're pathetic.

  • I remember a time when trolling meant something. This, however, is not one of those times. Thanks for failing, now go kindly die in a fire.

  • mine claw vill vule zee vorlt

  • One of the GREAT "Bad Guys" of all time!!!

  • He used to substitute for us and damn those were some of my most memorable times in junior high. He also was our wrestling referee from time to time.

    Great guy and he's nothing like this in real life it's sorta' scary. Very well spoken but damn had huge cauliflower (spelling?) ears from wresting on the mat too much...

    We'd use to raise our hands up like his Iron Claw and damn he'd always get a chuckle out of that.

    BTW that guy had HUGE hands... Really...

  • Baron von Rashke was a bad guy wrestler when I was a kid...But I still liked how he used the brain claw and talked crap before he fought

  • And dat is all da people need to know!

  • I saw the show at the History Theatre and it was worth EVERY minute. Brought back very funny memories and VERY well done. If you were into the defunct AWA, you would have gotten the humour. It was done in April of 2007. Mad Dog Vachon even made a guest appearence and I got his autograph as well. And dat is all da peeple neet to know!

  • Can anyone tell me when this was? What kind of show was he in? He still has it looks and all.I loved him back when wrestling was much better.I remember him in the AWA.I watched them all every Sun.@ noon locally here out of Chicago ch.26 I believe.

  • It's great to see Jim Raschke hasn't lost his in-ring presence one bit all these years! LOL.

    He's just as I remember him in the 70's-80's.

    PS: Maurice ("Mad Dog") Vachon hasn't changed with age either, (with the exception of the fact he now walks with an artificial leg because he was hit by a car a few years ago; but he's still his class old self.)

  • He was one of the best, he went from bad guy to good guy to bad guy and back again, when he would goose step around the ring with the claw out inf front, it was great entertainment to a 12 year old.

  • LOL!!! i've seen him wrestle many many times in pittsburgh!! loved the brain claw!!!

  • Glad to see the Baron is alive and well. I met him in 1973 at at wrestling match. I think he fought Cowboy Bob Ellis that night. Great guy.

  • How does he rip that apple apart so easily? It's amazing! This guy is hilarious!

  • LOL!

    He is a Great man!

    And.... I don't think there are many ppl in the world who can crush an apple like that in one hand.

  • Hurray! I can't wait!

  • Two words: Bela Lugosi. Great if strange promo.

  • Who says nobody can cut a good promo these days?!
