Neidhart's Raiders

[LordEli]

Axe of Demolition? about the same body shape can't tell if there sa mole on back of his arm though for tale tell sign.

[murphraven]

@projects4christ The Humongous in this video is not Sid Vicious. Humongous from Continental was Sid.

[tmbttes]

Damn! Neidhart, Sid, Ox and Rude on the same TEAM! The Horsemen would have never had a chance if they went after them

[mamacornettesmoney]

@tmbttes That's not Sid. He started over 3 years later in Continental (though Lawler is the one who discovered him). THis is the original Humongous, Mike Stark. Sid was WAY skinnier than this guy when he was Humongous. Taller, but skinnier.

[JamesMMcCann]

Was it an OD or was it a heart attack caused by years of substance abuse?

[JKTube]

The Zambuie Express were Kareem Muhammad (Raymond "Ray Candy"/"The Superfly" Canty) and Elijah Akeem (Leroy "Bad Bad Leroy Brown" Rochester). Which one was in this clip.

[dkmfwtx]

@JKTube Ray Candy

[projects4christ]

lord humongous is sid vicious

[mamacornettesmoney]

@projects4christ This is 3 and a half years or so before Sid started. this is the original Humongous, Mike Stark. Then Jeff Van Kamp is the Humongous from Continental 84-85 and Mid-South 85-86. Sid became humongous in Continental in 88 I believe.

[AnimalLover1977]

WOW Jim looks different.

[gracom1977]

its the ayotollah of rock n rolla

[blasto1979]

DAMN, Neidhart's Raiders....why didn't these guys take over pro wrestling :P

[blasto1979]

OMG, it's the prototype to DEMOLITION! 

[easye46]

that guy in green looks like idi amin

[DamienColletti]

I didn't know there were 2 Raider teams in 1984! Good deal!!!

[Whyisthisthat]

it seems Jim Anvil was never fond of Cardio

[linkmand]

Security Security Security,,, Wake up.

[Spamazoid]

Which Demolition member is that? ;p

[dbsommers1]

weird hearing Neidhart not giggling like an idiot like he did in pretty much his entire WWE run

[facscrusader]

omg this is my football coach. lmfao

[Bloodsport1]

@facscrusader which one?

[facscrusader]

@Bloodsport1 lord humongous himself. his name is mike stark and he's also the strength and condition trainer for memphis baseball.

[MrKooldaddykool]

classic

[jcp1977]

Okay I'm confused I know Jim Neidhart and Rick Rude and Ox Baker,but who the hell were those yahoos the P.Y.T. wasn't KoKo B.Ware a part of that tag team?

[salanh]

@jcp1977 yes, the other gentleman was Norvell Austin. They had a good run as a team in the mid 80's in Memphis, Mid South and Florida.

Austin, BTW, was actually part of the original Midnight Express.

[piercdbruh]

@jcp1977 Yeah Koko B. Ware and Norvell Austin.

[Rayla840]

Damn!!! I though Hogan was loose with sayin "BROTHER" during his interviews. Between Jimmy Hart and Neidhart, I counted the word "BABY" 29 times....usually preceded with a "YEAH"!!!

[daPlumber702]

anyone have any idea how long "neidhart's raiders" lasted?

[CDS1120]

The Humongous in this video was Mike Stark.

[armenius28]

Wasn't Sid humungus?....need to straighten my facts

[armenius28]

I googled it....Sid used the Humungus gimmick for almost 3 years...from 87 till 90 he only used the gimmick a couple of times tough.

[armenius28]

1984 - Mike Stark 1984 - Jeff Van Kamp 1984-90s - Gary Nations 1987-90s - Sid Eudy..(Sycho Sid) 1990s - Barry Buchanan 1990s - Randy Lewis 1990s - Emory Hale March 6, 1999-Present - John Bass 2000s - Richard Baily

2009 - Gunner Eudy(Sid's Son)

[dondonisio]

WWF used that wrestling gear on Demolition! They fkn copy so much.

[14DaveHunter]

Was this Humongous Mike Stark? If so, he's shorter than I expected him. Stark was billed as 6'8", this Lord Hugo looks like he's 6'4". Van Kamp was 6'6" and Sid was 6'9".

[CRW1253]

@14DaveHunter mike stark was it

[ThatsABiggon]

Was Humongous the prototype for Demolition? Was he one of the members of Demo?

[dharmaseed]

@ThatsABiggon Funny, he looks like the guy from The Road Warrior movie.

[salanh]

@dharmaseed That was the gimmick. The character was in the Road Warrior.

[RogPnn]

If you were anybody in pro wrestling you had to make a round in the Memphis territory. Maybe the the best ever in the 70's and 80's.

[lockenjr]

@RogPnn as well as the great pacific northwest don owen territory where Roddy got his first big break. Memphis and Portland forever will be wrestlingville usa..

[Justice4themeek]

Rick Rude was the man

[RangerRob2009]

Isn't he dead now from all the steriods he sucked down over the years? He did a good show. I enjoyed him too!

[JKTube]

@RangerRob2009: Rick Rude did OD from "mixed medications" in 1999.

[tomwalker389]

White Demolition?

[Gh0sT187]

that definitely is not sid playing humongous

[RichThePirate]

apparantly the newest Humongous is Gunner Eudy.... Sid's son!!!

[mrhollister09]

How'd I know the PYT Express were gonna be black?

[RED666GHOST]

Sid was the best Lord Humongus

[laggerg]

@RED666GHOST I liked Jeff Van Kamp as Lord Humongous in the Mid-South/UWF under Sir Oliver Humperdink.

[Lfdjake91]

Neidhart could'nt have been to unhappy with Jimmy Hart as a manager as he worked for "the Mouth of the South" again as 1/2 of the Hart Foundation. LOL

[Lfdjake91]

Jim Neidhart was an odd choice to take over Jimmy Hart's stable. The Anvil had decent enough mic skills but he really lacked the charisma needed to be the leader/manager of a group. Neidhart was more of a enforcer type then a leader kinda like Arn Anderson.

[madgoat777]

i had to job to Humongous 2 years ago and the guy who plays the role of him in the mid-south area should stop because he can't wrestle for shit

[JasonL77]

According to wikipedia, there have been nine guys who have portrayed Lord Humongous.

[derberzz]

Humongous looks alot like Bill Eadie.... ( masked superstar, axe of demolition )

[imreallyrotten]

This is one of the absolute classics from any wrestling show. Tenn. and Florida wrestling were it!! Never will their be a new Lance Russel or Gordon Solie!!!Excellent video!!!

[fastmoverinbound]

remember after he got the wwf tag team belts neighthart is the one that did most of the work pulled all the weight,bret just ran his mouth

[Lfdjake91]

What ?!?! In no way did Jim Neidhart do "most of the work" for the Hart Foundation if anything the team's workrate was split equelly. Bret rarely if ever talked for the team Neidhart & Jimmy Hart did all the talking.

[LeeWhisnant]

It alomst looks like "Smash" from Demolition!

[CVTom]

I know at some point, either in Memphis or in Mid South, Lord Humongous was Sid Vicious.

[MadisonCarter]

Neither one, actually. Sid was Humongous in Continental. The ones in Memphis and Mid-South were Jeff Van Kamp and Mike Stark.

[actionsub]

Madison is correct. During the early 80s, Mike Stark did the character in Memphis while Jeff Van Kamp wore the mask in Florida and Mid South.

A few years later, they revived the character and Sid Vicious wore the mask in CCW and even did a brief run with it in Memphis as well.

[MadisonCarter]

right, forgot he did come into Memphis at the tail end of his Humongous run, so I guess we're all correct in a way.

[OaktownABQ]

Was this right before Jimmy Hart moved to the WWF?

[Sargebri]

Yep. Hart got to the WWF either in late 1984 or early 1985.

[TankCostello]

ROLMAO...Anyone who thinks that is Sid must be outta there mind.Look when he steps off the podium he is like an inch shorter than rick rude..Now i dont know who it is but i know its not sid.

[ripper820]

ur right tank it is DEFINETLY not sid, sid didn't come in until about 2 years later

[y2jbrock]

thx

[ECOOL76]

It was Jeff Van kamp

[CRW1253]

@ECOOL76 it was mjike stark

[JeffTheFutureJaros]

Lord Humongous which was Sid Vicious behind the Mask, was wearing almost the exact ring attire as WWF's Demolition, Vince must've liked the look a little or something?

[lancedeboyle]

humungous was actually pretty much an exact copy of the principle vilain from the movie mad max 2 (marketed as "the road warrior" in the U.S.)right down to the name.the movie was of course the inspiration for both demolition and the road warriors gimmicks. interestingly, in the movie, "the road warrior" actually referred to the hero (mel gibson's character). yeah , i know, i'm a geek, and proud of it! :-D

[Allofthem1]

Can anyone name everyone in Neidhart's stable? I can't understand what he's saying and don't recognize everybody...

[TheDDG]

Ox Baker, Koko B. Ware & Norvell Austin (PYT Express), Kareem Muhammad (1/2 of the Zambuie Express), and Rick Rude.

[Bloodsport1]

my bad.

[TomasTigre]

Who is playing Lord Humungous here? Anyone know?

[Bloodsport1]

Sid Vicious aka Sid, Psycho Sid, Sid Justice

[nochu2]

This according to wikipedia, but I am sure that is SOOOOOO not sid, that guys bigger than Sid ever was.

1984 - Jeff Van Kamp

1984-90s - Gary Nations

1987 - Sid Eudy

1990s - Barry Buchanan

1990s - Randy Lewis

[THRILLAKILLA187]

OK YOU DID UR HOMEWORK BUT YOU STILL FAILED!!! DO YOU KNOW WHY....? BECAUSE SID'S REAL NAME IS 1987 - Sid Eudy IF UR GUNNA DO UR RESEARCH DO IT RIGHT! SORRY YOU HAVE BEEN SCHOOLED IN WRESTLING 101 AND YOU HAVE TO RETAKE THE CLASS AGAIN!! LOL GO TO WIKIPEDIA AND ENTER HIS NAME Sid Eudy AND YOU WILL BE SCHOOLED THANK YOU AND YOU STILL FLUNKED WRESTLING 101!

[nochu2]

[shanesums]

[nochu2]

[CRW1253]

@TomasTigre mike stark

[retoronto]

Koko B. Ware.... one half of the PYT's!

[BabyFace316]

Neidhart kinda looks like Buzz Sawyer without the goatee.

[matarishi]

Man, Neidhart giggling is so evil!

[jayrealdeal]

He never amounted to shit????????? News to me

[Flair27]

Hey 70snova, tell me if Neidhart never amounted to shit, why did he became a 2 times WWE tag Team Champion in the Hart Foundation. Yeah i bet you didnt know that one my friend. Oh by the way, Bret was not carrying him in those title reigns.

[mentokthemilfspunker]

who weird to see Neidhart without the goatee.
