[TheFlyingHoodlum]

A compilation of the single worst day in the life of (insert name of opponent's here.)

[Krazyk12200]

Who wants Vader?

[malfoydude]

Back in the WCW days this guy was unstoppable

[TheCaliCrusher]

Vader would've been a beast in an MMA Super-Heavyweight division.

[bigrigbob2010]

@TheCaliCrusher LOL Sorry but no he wouldn't. He got the crap beaten out of him by a pretty much 1 armed guy in shower shoes. He started shit with Paul Orndorff. whose one arm was fucked up from nerve damage as he got out the shower and Orndorff beat the hell out of him with his good arm (and hurt his feet kicking him). He was a tough in the ring wrestler but not in reality, Jim Cornette who is his friend has even said he was a teddy bear outside the ring / business.

[MrBill297]

This theme sounds like a song from the old doom game.

[camowarrior100]

Damn a guy weighing over 300 pounds doing a top rope moonsault that must be a terrifying sight to watch that coming down at you

[jwbail02]

Ah...three and a half minutes of Vader just wreckin' $#!t up = priceless. I forgot how athletic he was with the moonsaults.

[4fear4hunger4pride]

EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS PROMO IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrColonsay]

Vader was so strong and scary he did not even give a damn if he was beating a jobber or a fellow main eventer. Vader was a force of nature in the ring

[kingomar69]

Savage/Warrior at Wembley and 3:17 are my earliest wrestling memories.

[HiCapacity]

@kingomar69 You got it

[motorheadnwbm1992]

When Vader's eye came out of his socket during the match with Stan Hansen, that was some crazy shit!

[HiCapacity]

@motorheadnwbm1992 But the show must go on.. He was a great pro wrassler

[motorheadnwbm1992]

@HiCapacity He was, he was awesome in japan and in WCW.. WWF could have treated him better

[HiCapacity]

@motorheadnwbm1992 I agree

[eightball20058]

Van Vader was the Brock Lesnar of the 90's until he went to WWE and made a bitch out of him.....what a tragedy

[diedahero]

@eightball20058

"We'll make him the Mastodon!"

[toddskidmore1974]

vader is a bad ass

[RANTOHOLICOFFICAL]

it was the 90's. everything was badass backthen

[msj340]

i know i'm late but wow a moonsault from vader.impressive

[Ichibanhaha]

@msj340 loli was going to type same thing.

[Live4Ever329]

Vader was a beast!!!!!!

[D2Kprime]

I don't think there was anyone more stiff and brutal than Big Van Vader.

[BreakerOfBoxes]

Vader and Bigelow both in real life looked like big fat guys but in the ring they were more agile and versatile than some of the Cruiserweights. Great athleticism, larger than life persona, and should've gone on to more success in WWE. But thanks to Shawn Michaels (aka Pat Patterson's boy toy) we missed out on a more wrestling greatness.

[DNME87]

too old.

[dirty706]

Need to add some Sid Vicious clips, also.

[briantj82]

Awesome.. I loved his matches against cactus jack

[woolridge48]

Wait was wrestling ever bad ass?

[HiCapacity]

@woolridge48 For sure.

[michiyoyoshiku]

@woolridge48

Look up deathmatches 

[classicfreeze72]

vader time!!!

[HeavyMetalKing777]

I remember watching him as a kid and being terrified. Not just because he was dominating but because of that elephant mask. But now that I'm older I think it was pretty badass.

[tortuga388]

@HeavyMetalKing777 I used to have nightmares about him and Abdullah the Butcher when I was a kid. Scary scary dudes.

[jokerfan31]

@hicapacity amen brother was always one my favs I will admit I was. Sting mark for their matches but I was 10 and thought facepaint was cool lol but always rooted for vader against the nature dud and later against shamrocks maxi ass. Wwe could've done so much with him and foley on the roster together what a waste

[jokerfan31]

His punches and clubs in the corner looked so real for a reason. Read mick foleys first book and in it he atests that vader took no chances he just full on pounded the hell out of people. Punched foley so hard that it dislocated his jaw

[HiCapacity]

@jokerfan31 One of the greatest wrestlers.

[Thatmeat]

Vader was a beast back in the day.

[theboyboone313]

fuckin godzilla of the ring!~

[onerandomexican]

To me wrestling was better around wwf

[Johnny3D3D]

by far one of my favorite big guy wrestlers

[kaoz666]

By and large the greatest super Heavyweight of all time...PERIOD. I defy anyone to find a 400 pounder who did more in and for the business then Vader, in the states and in Japan.

[ImportKnight13]

@kaoz666 ...yeah, I can't find one. Vader was a monster heel and I feel bad for kids watching wrestling now who don't have a clue who he is.

[kaoz666]

@ImportKnight13 And that's the sad part. These younger wrestling fans have no idea how good Big Men where in the 90s and early 2000s. When wrestling was actually entertaining because of not only the quality in the ring, but the characters as well. Yes, Vader was an awesome athlete, but that was only part of what made him a legend. His gimmick and character was legitimately scary. You watched him maul people and legitimately felt he was going to kill them. That's what made Vader "The Man".

[breavis08]

John Cena I'm really happy for you and imma let you finish, but Big Van Vader was one of the most badass wrestlers of all time! OF ALL TIME!!!

[ahhcrap101]

i looked up his weight and he's 420 pounds.....DANM!

i feel sorry for the dude who takes a back flip off the top rope from him.

[BigJoeKrash]

Inventor of the Powebomb and one of the toughest men in the ring. A man so bad that Dragon Ball Z made a character close to him. Well he had the smoking helmet. But Vader was also one of the coolest people you ever wanted to meet

[heartbreakviper]

@BigJoeKrash who? majin boo?

[CoalRegionRiders]

Vader in WWE 12'

[Gr8muta]

VADER!! We coming for you Nigga!!!

[Gr8muta]

Sweet jeebus...wtf was that move @ 3:08 Vader....Killing bitches since '85' !

[FinalTallgeese]

@bs4830-What up Danger Man!? LOL. Yeah man, me and you talked about this other day. Vader was/is a badass mofo. It to bad he was not as dominant in the WWF as he was in WCW. Man I heard he fucked some shit up in WCW. Overall he was an awesome force. Big, Strong, Agile, good on the mike. Just a Badass!!

[bs4830]

Vader is one of the toughest guys to get in a scuffle with. Not very many people could touch him and he made rivalries great like ol Rick Rude did. Just a great heel to fight against and he brought so much offense to the ring with a variety of moves. Off the top rope, brawl, wrestle you just a beast. Wish I got a chance to see him live though

[FinalTallgeese]

Vader is a true BADASS!! I have never seen anyobdy whoop so much ass...and not get arrested! LOL. One of my favorite wrestlers of all time. Thanks for posting.

Oh, and dont forget, vote Leon"Vader" White. 2012 election. Vader for President!!

[HiCapacity]

@FinalTallgeese No problem!

[Mrslammie]

Him and Bam Bam Bigelow made a great tag team.

[zerodying2live86]

vader was just plain brutal to get in the ring with i overlooked him until i watched this wow

[NubeNegra619]

whos da men?

[ncceaglesowner]

Id be more scared of Harley than Vader..... VIOLANT!!! lmfao

[xxxmastaicexxx]

vader makes wrestling not so fake

[TahishaArvo]

@xxxmastaicexxx cause it's not fake, it's scripted.. difference

[HiCapacity]

@TahishaArvo This is true. But he was very hard on people. Which made it awesome.

[TahishaArvo]

@HiCapacity true :)

[dizzybenny]

he would have made a great THING from fantastic 4.

[JackgarPrime]

@dizzybenny He wouldn't even need the rock skin getup. He'd just show up and powerbomb Galactus like the big purple bitch he is.

[BlueBatman23]

wuz he ever world champ in any organization?..

[joshcannon23]

@BlueBatman23 yeah he was WCW World Champion back in the early 90's. 3 times.

[spiritjd33]

Vader is the fucking powerhouse back in the day

[WillieForbidden]

he had the best agility ofr a big man

[WillieForbidden]

VADER....BADDEST BIG MAN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION.....TOO BAD WCW DIDN'T USE HIM THE RIGHT WAY...

[darkastonvillafan]

Vader would eat the Miz

[dagreatcapri82]

What time is it?.....Time to get something to eat!

JK! Vader was a monster!

[mannaufstahl]

I was a huge Sting fan, and when I saw promos of Vader and they were about to wrestle each other, I was literally scared for Sting's life. I mean, edge of my seat, nervous as hell for Sting's safety. Ah, the good old days.

[wannabenj]

there were only a handful of wrestlers that were not afraid of Vader.They are Steiners,Kurt Angle,The Road Warriors,Harley Race,Haku/Meng,Stan Hansen and Bruiser Brody .I really miss WCW.

[SuperBrowns88]

man the mastadon helmet thing he wore to the ring...were the eyes would light up n shoot moke out the top like it was breathing was the coolest entrance gear of all time

[MrRedRooster21]

Back when wrestlers had a set. Now they are nothing more then clowns.

[seanysean83]

WHAT TIME IS IT! WHAT TIME IS IT! VADER TIME

[seanysean83]

This man will eat you "WHAT TIME IS IT! " sweet i always thought vader was second only to pyscho sid

[Salesman]

Something tells me that at 3:08 he did not mean to fall backwards like that. That would have been really bad if he botched it but Vader is too damn awesome to botch.

[MrBill297]

Vader doing a moonsault is freking scary looking if you were the guy on the floor

[SpaceCelte]

Vader ? Simply the best "big man" in pro-wrestling , one of most agressive i have ever seen in the great WCW .

[brettmajors69karaoke]

Funny thing is vader was afraid okay, of Harley Race.

[blachubear]

@brettmajors69karaoke Yeah you would be too if your manager use a stun gun to get your attention but I say this, Race & Vader were great together. When Race left, Vader still was a bad ass but something was missing.

[coanth]

fucking redheads

[jcc2k8]

he scared the hell outta me as a kid. vader time gave me bedtime nightmares

[NdotDiggity]

Vader was the fuckin man in WCW

[HiCapacity]

@NdotDiggity Fuck yea

[triklops1]

And this is why Vader will be considered one of the greatest big men to ever grace the squared circle. He could brawl, he coulf fly, he was quick for his size, and he beat you like you stole something. When you got done wrestling the man you hurt, plain and simple.

[HiCapacity]

@triklops1 Yep!

[themax316]

@triklops1 True...he was an awesome heel and was a likeable face somehow too. It's a shame his tint in WWF was not as good as it could have been.

[slickemrickem]

I rule the dubya c dubya 2:46 lol

[HiCapacity]

@slickemrickem Fuck yea

[BIGDANNY77]

Leon White aka Big Van Vader owns all. What an awesome montage! Should of been a wwf champion and imagine if Him and Bam Bam Bigelow were a tag team in the US as they were in Japan! Imagine if Vader went to Ecw to be a monster heel, instead they wanted Vader to job to new talent to put over other stars. Its ashame because he end doing that in wwf. Damn i missed his autograph signings 4 times and once he no showed cause he had a injury! I keep collecting photos of him to sign!

[HiCapacity]

Vader is the best.

[siccbeast]

I remember thiz Vader promo. Bischoff should've kept Vader & have Vader join up with Sting against the nWo.

[HiCapacity]

Long time ago dude!

[CNS2]

Ric Flare, Sgt Slaughter, Wahoo McDaniels, Dusty Rhodes, Vader, Road Warriors, etc... Yeah those were the days! thanks for sharing the vid "HiCap"!

[HiCapacity]

No problem. I used to LOVE wrestling.

[huyhuyhuytae]

this is a long time wrestling i think

[HiCapacity]

This is before you were born.

[UrbanTiger74]

Elbow drop at 1:06...F'N AWFUL! OOOOOOOOOF!!!

[KommandoOver9000]

wrestling is like /b/

it was never good.......

inb4 1&2

[HiCapacity]

Yeah dude. When WCW WAS good. Before WWF was the shit.
