Dusty Rhodes 1988 Promo

[okrabay]

things had changed so much by this time it was just about over for Crocket

[mrbluto3]

The great Bob Caudle?????

[kotk05]

Why is it that not even a tenth of that charisma rubbed off on Cody?

[JonathanVonErich]

@kotk05 I agree that Cody will never have the charisma of Dusty, but Cody is a very good wrestler and have a great future ahead of him. Cody is only 25 years old, When Dusty was 25 he was teaming with Dick Murdoch and he was not the colorful and charismatic American Dream yet, so maybe Cody will "find" his charisma later, just like Dusty did.

@JonathanVonErich honestly In my opinion, Cody is a good wrestler and has personailty but in my opinion i think he should be a babyface. He looks to good looking to be a heel. he doesn't look like an asshole or can be intimating like an asshole and I think he got that from his dad because Dusty I could never take him serious as a heel. He's a great babyface and and in my opinion Once Cody turns Face he's going to be successful.

@JonathanVonErich Charisma?,Dusty was class, Muhammed Ali himself could have learned a few things from Dusty,he was as big as any pro athelete in any sport,and most cases,he was more,There will never be a golden age of pro wrestling as it was back then,theres NO school like the OLD SCHOOL,and Dusty was head master!!

[CadillacL]

@NAMTRIP Couldn't said it better!

[sirlegendhead]

[toyotas2006]

If you can, view New Jack's Underground Wrestling videos, and hear his take on Dusty Rhodes

Very interesting

[chriskoob]

why didnt dusty just do what ric flair did with macho man and tell larry that baby doll was damaged goods?

[martyc420]

does he say "naw den"  ??

[UglyMannheim]

Bob Caudle was one of my favorites.

[TranqPJ]

The "great" Bob Caudle? Hilarious...it's funny how over-rated he is in some circles. He was the worst. You could also be assured that any weekly syndicated NWA TV show in the mid-late 80s hosted by Bob Caudle was indeed the "B" show. The better matches and commentary were always on the shows other than Caudle's. I loved wrestling, but hated watching the shows Caudle hosted.

[SteelerJeff2009]

I read that Caudle was a weatherman before Crockett hired him.

[NWAfan]

he was doing wrestling while doing the weather.

[NWAfan]

Saying he was b team guy is nuts. I guess being the B team guy is why he was chosen to do starrcade and many clash of champions. Most people think him and Lance Russell were the 2 best interview guy ever. You are the only person to ever say something negative about Caudle. In the late 70's early he was the man along with Johnny Weaver. Flair and Jim Cornette say he is their favorite. Anybody is over the age over 40 and grew up with MACW loves him.

[T74G]

Lance Russell...aka "Banana Nose" was way better than Caudle...

however i tuned into Mid-Atlantic often..and he was the perfect fit for Mid atlantic...

[NWAfan]

One thing about Russell is he did alot of play by play. Caudle was mainly color and inteviews. But Caudle dealt with bigger stars  for the most part.

[T74G]

ok then as far as commentary is concern..Russells play by play was what sold him!! "Banana Nose"..lol..he was good..

Caudle was great for the Mid Atlantic

[NWAfan]

Have you ever heard Dutch Mantell do any tv work he was great in Smoky Mountain Wrestling.

[T74G]

Smoky Mountain Wrestling was cool....i heard Mantell on there and He, Jeerry Lawler, and Jesse "The body" Ventura were probably the best of the wrestlers turn commentators!

.... I liked the belts from Smoky Mountain..they always looked cool in PWI's pull out posters...

[daschuck77]

David Crockett was the worst...

"Dusty picks him up...takes his arm...throws him into the ropes...hits him with a shot...the guy falls down...Dusty picks up a sandwhich..."

[catdaddy2006]

Bob Caudle was great

[NWAfan]

You got that right the great Bob Caudle.
